UBiome in Australia: An Interview with Jessica Richman

Garuda Nicolle is the founder of Organic Turmeric, an Australian owned and operated manufacturer of the highest quality turmeric supplement we have been able to find. In this interview we learn some surprising facts with regard to just how powerful a herb turmeric is and the variety of ways it can benefit our wellbeing. In this 40 minute podcast, Garuda is a naturopath in training and shares some great insights, but his one key takeaway message for us to have an awareness of our physical and mental wellbeing and that food is medicine. Whole organic foods like turmeric can help us maintain and improve wellness. This is a really broad topic and we've only just scratched the surface.

Jessie Reimers is the creator of a petition to change the way the Heart Foundation Tick is used to label foods in Australia so that it no longer may appear on highly processed and unhealthy foods like margarine. Jessie makes a strong case for the criteria to be changed and shares her extensive knowledge about what is really making us sick and overweight. We propose the idea of a 'Wellness' Tick that considers the whole equation, rather than just isolated factors. The petition is at:  http://www.change.org/en-AU/petitions/heart-foundation-stop-endorsing-unhealthy-margarines-and-immediately-review-the-tick-of-approval-program
