This podcast is evidence-based, informative and outstanding! The topics are relevant. Thank you to the host, Melinda Hemmelgarn, for choosing such timely topics and excellent guest speakers!

I love it and share these highly informative and well done interviews!I’m not being a conspiracy theorist when I tell people that our government doesn’t enforce organic standards.
