But the basis of the ecosystem part of it-which is the predominance of what that certification is-is very similar to what regenerative is. It’s just really special in that it has a lot of philosophy to it. Biodynamics also brings in the cosmos, which is a really interesting part of the certification, which is why we continue to maintain it.

It talks about building the fertility from inside of your land, because obviously shipping things in and pulling extractive methods is not as sustainable or regenerative, which is the next word that we’re going to talk about. It talks about reserving a certain percentage of your land to natively flower.

I’m working on a book right now about metabolic health, and I trained as an ear, nose, and throat surgeon. Casey Means discusses learning more about the inflammatory processes of conditions that affect the ear, nose, and throat. I had become a private chef then.Ħ:58 - Diet impacts inflammatory pathways that can drive symptomsĭr. From there I started seeking out food that was of the quality that I wanted to feed my clients. And through then returning to these traditional ways of eating, I was able to completely restore the PCOS symptoms and provide the beginnings for understanding that it wasn’t just the choices that I was making in the kitchen, but it was actually tied into the choices that the farmer was making in the field. I learned I had a soy allergy, which was really, really affecting my hormones. I was taught about sugars-and not just natural sugars-but fruit, anything that’s like affecting that blood sugar cycle. She attended culinary school at the Natural Gourmet Institute of Health and Culinary Arts, where she learned more about how diet can affect hormones and the impact on how foods are farmed. Molly Chester of Apricot Lane Farms (in Moorpark, California, just 40 miles north of Los Angeles) shares her experience of changing her diet to help control PCOS symptoms.
