0:00.0	Hello and welcome to the Natural State podcast. I am your host Dr. Anthony Guston. It is
0:10.2	my belief that the natural state of penny living organisms' health and that our artificial
0:14.5	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
0:27.8	in an environment that 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.
0:36.2	Today I welcome Dr. Zach Busch, who is well known for many things, including launching the

1:23.6	lot of the Virginia Vag communities, if people ask why, if he cares about Virginia Vagric
1:28.3	culture, he plants it. So, we answer that in this podcast. I haven't really heard him talk
1:31.6	about it much otherwise. And while I don't necessarily agree with some of his dances on,
1:38.2	for example, amino acid representation in certain foods, I do agree with some of the things
1:44.2	he's tapped into and what he's thinking about. And sort of the source of meat, and I want
1:48.8	to spoil it too much, we'll let you get to that point in the podcast, but how meat is
