| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to the Natural State podcast. I'm your host Dr. Anthony Guston. It is my |
| 0:10.4 | belief that the natural state of penny living organisms' health and that our artificial |
| 0:14.4 | habitat has forced us into having artificial health problems. This show is my attempt to |
| 0:18.7 | dive deep and learn about using nutrition, sleep, movement, relationships and more to help |
| 0:23.8 | you reclaim your natural state of health in a modern world and show you how to thrive |
| 0:27.7 | in an environment that's stacked against you. If you enjoyed today's show, you can find |
| 0:31.3 | out more details and information at Dr. Anthony Guston.com. Welcome back to the Natural |

| 1:21.9 | It is what I think to be the best system of farming. There is some sort of spirituality |
| 1:27.0 | things that are in it that people throw away but generally speaking it has the most |
| 1:31.6 | amount of guidelines for how people should look at ecosystem health and farming and I think |
| 1:36.1 | it produces the best food. This isn't even an argument anymore. All the top wine producers |
| 1:41.4 | in the world, for example, are moving to biodynamic. You'll see it in wine bottles a lot. |
| 1:45.0 | I think it's going to start sweeping over to the US. It's really pop running in Europe |
| 1:48.4 | and they get sort of on the cutting edge but they have their entire supply chain is biodynamic |
