Welcome to the Dr. Gundry Podcast.

Ever heard of toxic wine? Well, if you've read any of my books, the answer is absolutely positive.

Yes, I'm talking about wines that are full of one of the deadliest disruptors' glyphosate, the key biocide in Roundup.

But I guess today expands the definition of a toxic wine beyond that. In fact, he's actually built an entire business curating the cleanest wines on the planet.

He's Todd White, self-professed biohacker and founder of Dry Farm Wines. A subscription-based wine club that sources natural wines from small family farms.

If you are a wine lover like me, or just like to stay informed about the latest trended topics, hang tight. Because when we come back, Todd is going to reveal what may actually be in your glass of wine, and it's not just fermented grapes.

Explain what the heck carb-free wine is, and most importantly, help you find the purest and tastiest wines out there. Stay tuned, we'll be right back.

Welcome to the podcast, Todd. Great to have you on and congrats on your success. And I see many of my health contemporaries praising Dry Farm Wines.

Thank you, I'm excited to be here and talk about the dirty dark secrets of the wine business.

So let's get to the heart of the issue. What is exactly wrong with most wine out there today?

Well, let's, you know, kind of, if we look at the food industry, 9 or 10 companies basically control most of the food in the United States.

And what's the same thing has happened in the wine business in the last 30 or 40 years, so you've had massive corporate consolidation, fueled by Wall Street money, and greed.

So here's where the problem begins, is this is all about money. It's not about making wine better or healthier, it's about making it faster and cheaper.

And that's, that's kind of the foundation of the problem. So when you look at the wine industry, over 50% of US wines are manufactured by just three giant conglomerates, multi billion dollar conglomerates.

The top 30 wine companies in the United States make over 70% of US wine. So the reason that's important is because you don't know that.

And the reason you don't know that they're manufactured in these massive factories, most of them located in California.

Is because the wine industry hides behind these conglomerates, high behind thousands of brands and labels to confuse you.

To have you believe that you're drinking from a farmhouse or a chateau, that's how they market it.

But in fact, most of the wine that you're drinking comes out of massive factories in central California.

So that's sort of where it begins, but here's the secret they don't want you to know about.

There's 76 additives approved by the FDA for the use of wine making.
