Politics Of Dairy, Why Dairy Sensitivities May Not Be From What You Think | Sam Ingersoll of Supernatural

128: If you have sensitivities to dairy, it may not be the dairy itself but the type and quality of dairy you are consuming that is causing the issue. Sam Ingersoll from Kalona Supernatural joins us to delve into the politics of dairy, revealing what most people don't know about the demands and requirements imposed by the government and the numerous regulations dairy farmers must adhere to. He also discusses the demands grocery stores place on brands in order for their products to be shelved, including fees brands must pay to the store and participation in advertisements that drain the resources of small brands. It's an unfortunate reality. Additionally, we explore regenerative agriculture and its benefits not only for animals but also for our gut health. We also discuss the distinction between homogenized and non-homogenized dairy and the origins of this so-called scam, along with much more!
