25) The Benefits of Eating Nose to Tail and Not Being Frail with Ashleigh VanHouten

At the heart of SAPIEN Podcast-Optimum Health & Wellness is a conversation between two distinct yet complementary voices: health and nutrition expert Brian Sanders and hormone optimization specialist Chris Kruger. Their dialogue moves beyond generic advice, digging into the interconnected layers of what it truly means to thrive. This means examining not just physical health, but the mental and spiritual components that are so often overlooked. The framework for these discussions is built on ancestral principles-ideas that suggest our modern lives have strayed from the patterns that keep us well. Each episode of this podcast feels like a practical workshop. You’ll hear specific, actionable strategies for improving diet, managing weight, and addressing the root causes of chronic disease. The focus isn't on fleeting trends but on sustainable practices that can be woven into daily life. Alongside Brian and Chris’s insights, they are frequently joined by top guests from various health fields, offering deeper dives into specialized topics. Listening, you get the sense of being part of a larger exploration, one that equips you with the knowledge to not just prevent illness but to actively reverse its course and cultivate a more vibrant, resilient existence. It’s a resource for anyone tired of fragmented health information and seeking a cohesive, principle-based path to living their best life.
