Summary

Do you give much thought to the products you use and the foods you eat every day and the companies that produce them? Choose the passive approach — like most people do — and you’re giving up all responsibility for the health of your mind and your body, plus making the pockets of Big Pharma/Big Ag fatter.

Throughout his long career, Paul has always been the iconoclast, sharing safer and healthier approaches to daily living that start with investing your dollars in foods and products you consume from clean sources.

So what really constitutes a healthy, clean source?

Adriaan Zimmerman and Ret Taylor describe the journeys they’ve taken to create Ned, a company that produces an array of organic botanical products derived from non-GMO resources straight from regenerative farms in this restorative Living 4D conversation.

Check out the work Ret and Adriaaan are doing with Ned via social media on Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest, TikTok and YouTube.
