528: A Generation Experimented On Without Their Permission with Alex Clark

Author: Heartcast Media May 26, 2025 Duration: 37:15
Have Millennials and Generation Z been experimented on without their consent? Is their sickness a consequence of malfeasance of those responsible for our food, pharmaceuticals, and health care system? Alex Clark is the host and founder of Culture Apothecary and an outspoken advocate for healthcare reform and food freedom in America today. She is determined to find out who is responsible for the chronic health conditions that affect so many young people today.   Today, Alex explains where her quest began, why she changed her podcast from one focused on politics and pop culture to one centered around health concerns, and more. She reveals her own personal health wake up call and the first thing she changed when she realized that most food was pseudo food. Alex, the woman who once was known for her love of chicken nuggets explains how she did a 180 and has now become a passionate advocate for raw milk, sourdough bread, and traditional health ways.   Find Alex's podcast Culture Apothecary on Apple Podcasts (or your fave podcast platform) Register for the Wise Traditions conference in Utah this October Become a member of the Weston A.

Produced by Heartcast Media, Wise Traditions is a conversation about health that begins with a simple, radical idea: our ancestors might have known better. This podcast explores the foundations of well-being found in time-honored practices, traditional diets, and holistic living, moving beyond the confines of modern, engineered solutions. Each episode delves into practical and philosophical discussions on how to apply this ancestral wisdom to contemporary life, covering topics from nutrition and fitness to broader lifestyle choices that align with nature's rhythms. The dialogue is built on the premise that true vitality comes not from dominating the natural world, but from understanding and cooperating with it, a concept famously echoed by Dr. Weston A. Price. You'll hear from a variety of voices-practitioners, researchers, and everyday people-who are integrating these principles to cultivate resilience and health. It’s for anyone feeling disconnected from simplistic health trends and seeking a deeper, more rooted path to wellness. Tune in for thoughtful, often challenging conversations that reconnect the dots between what we’ve forgotten and how we can truly thrive.
