His shoes were hanging off the ledge and he was about to let go. He was trapped in a deep depression. At this crossroads moment of his life, he had a realization - he would let his depression make something of him or he could make something of it. He chose the latter and Cured Nutrition was born


This is the story of today's guest, Joe Sheehey. 


What are cannabinoids and how can they help us when it comes to sleep, depression, and anxiety? Why would an aerospace engineer leave corporate America to help people heal naturally and elevate their consciousness? Answers to these questions and more on today's episode of Food Heals.


Joe Sheehey is the Founder and CEO of CURED Nutrition, a leading cannabinoid wellness brand. Joe, a former NASA contributing aerospace engineer, shares his personal journey of leaving corporate America and committing to a future of health that looks much different than the past.


Joe’s life was governed by a strict set of rules and adherence to socially-acceptable paths until he found himself trapped in a deep depression. At a crossroads moment, he realized that he could let his depression make something of him or he could make something of it. He chose the latter and CURED Nutrition was born.


Joe’s mission is to change the narrative around cannabis and elevate consciousness on all fronts, guiding others towards a radical sense of self-actualization. He shares his story of resilience, perseverance, and renewed self-awareness, triumphing through periods of anxiety, depression, and suicidal attempts.

What if it were possible to create a super convenient, organic, nutrient-dense, delicious, vegan food delivery company without compromising on taste, quality, or sustainability? Sounds like a dream right? Well, my guest today has made this dream into a reality with his company BIO RAW. I met Oren Epstein years ago at Expo West and have had the pleasure of watching his company not only grow but flourish.


Oren shares his journey of building BIO RAW from the ground up at just 24 years old, and how he scaled the company to over nine figures while maintaining integrity in his business operations. He also talks about the challenges he faced while creating one of the world's first zero-waste production facilities, which is also certified organic, gluten-free, nut-free, climate-neutral certified, and 100% green-powered.


In this episode, Oren discusses the importance of creating a business that aligns with your values, and how BIO RAW is committed to sustainability, social responsibility, and making a positive impact on the world. He also shares his experience as a consultant and speaker, helping other brands launch and expand while becoming forces for good in their own right.

Today we've got the health hazards that are not making enough headlines and what you need to know to keep yourself healthy after a disaster. Then I'm talking about the future of plant-based protein with Jonathan Golan and how his company Brevel is making microalgae for the masses.


How to Detox After A Chemical Exposure:

It's been 13 days since a train carrying toxic chemicals derailed in East Palestine. Fires broke out and residents evacuated. Officials had to burn off a dangerous chemical called vinyl chloride before it could explode, causing a toxic pillar of smoke to tower over the town for days. Unfortunately, the aftermath of the accident is still being felt, with dead fish appearing in the creeks, and local residents reporting sudden deaths of chickens and illnesses in their pets.


If you have been affected by this disaster, it is imperative that you take your health back into your own hands and start a detox protocol.


Make sure to drink filtered water, which can remove some of the contaminants. Using an air purifier in your home with an UltraHEPA filter, can also help reduce exposure to the dangerous chemicals in the air. Taking supplements like nascent iodine, superfoods, and probiotics can assist your body in the detoxings. We may not be able to control the disaster itself, but we can control our own health and safety by taking steps to limit our exposure to dangerous chemicals.


The Future of Protein is Microalgae:

Yonatan Golan is passionate about making the world a better place through sustainable nutrition, social change and cutting edge science.


With his brothers he founded the company Brevel. Brevel makes microalgae alternative protein which is affordable, flavor and color neutral, highly functional, sustainable and scalable. Brevel is providing microalgae based alternative protein which is affordable, flavor and color neutral, highly functional, sustainable and at consistent and scalable production.


Today we discuss why the future of protein is microalgae, colonizing Mars, and the truth about The Martian film with Matt Damon.

Still suffering from the holiday blues? Is anxiety and depression holding you back from living the life of your dreams? 


What if a simple age-old practice could change everything? That's right, we're talking about meditation. Specifically, The Women's Meditation Network and how Katie Krimitsos created a meditation empire that can help you heal - emotionally, physically, and spiritually.


Anxiety and depression are two of the most widespread mental health issues faced by people today. They can be overwhelming and make it difficult to live a happy and fulfilling life. Fortunately, meditation is an ancient practice that can help you overcome these challenges and promote overall health and wellbeing.


The history of meditation dates back thousands of years, with its roots in ancient India. Over time, it has been adopted by different cultures and religions, each adapting it in their own unique way. Today, meditation is experiencing a resurgence in popularity, and there are numerous forms of meditation available, including mindfulness meditation, loving-kindness meditation, and body scan meditation.


Meditation has been scientifically proven to reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression. By slowing down the activity of the mind and body, meditation can help reduce stress and anxiety, while also increasing feelings of happiness and wellbeing. These positive effects can counteract the negative effects of depression and lead to improved mental health.


In addition to its mental health benefits, meditation has also been shown to have positive effects on physical health. It can help reduce pain, lower blood pressure, improve heart health, and enhance sleep. By promoting physical and mental wellness, meditation can help individuals live healthier lives.


Katie Krimitsos is a leading advocate for meditation and its many benefits. Through her podcasts, Katie provides women with resources and guidance to help them incorporate meditation into their daily routines. Katie encourages people to "act as if" they already have what they want to manifest in their lives, and helps them not just survive, but thrive in all areas of their lives.
