What is the difference between a probiotic, a prebiotic, a post-biotic and a symbiotic? What the heck is a zombie cell? And why is electrical medicine the future? All these questions answered and more for today's guest, Dr. Nick Bitz on Food Heals.
Dr. Bitz is a Board-certified Naturopathic Doctor specializing in integrative medicine and Ayurveda. He's an Innovation leader, formulator and wellness expert with nearly two decades of experience commercializing science-backed supplements, functional foods and plant-based products.

Did you know that physical clutter can also clutter up our minds, not to mention the dust cluttering up our bodies? But, lack of space is not the cause of clutter. Disorganization results in 80 percent of the clutter in most homes.
In the average home, getting rid of clutter eliminates 40 percent of housework. Plus, most of us only use 20 percent of what we own!
In the last two episodes, we heard from experts about the power of detoxing our homes, now it's time to declutter!
First up, it's Wellness Expert Kimberly Van Der Beek, who shares her tips for decluttering, air-cleaning plants (that's right, plants that actually clean your air), and her top tips to thrive!
Then I catch up with Janice McQueen, host of the Beauty Call podcast, who shares that her secret to clarity is decluttering and how she does it.
And finally, I roll my interview with Michael Ofei & Maša Ofei, authors of "The Minimalist Vegan: A Simple Manifesto On Why To Live With Less Stuff And More Compassion."

Have you ever asked yourself any of the following questions?
Which of the unpronounceable chemicals listed on the back of my shampoo bottle might be toxic?
Why aren't companies always required to list toxic ingredients on their product labels?
How can I make sure my kids and pets are safe while also keeping my home clean?
Creating a healthy, non-toxic home often feels like a losing battle. When it seems like everything is bad for you, from pesticides in your produce to flame retardants in your mattress, it's hard to get motivated to change. That's why I have three incredible guests here to help us learn the little adjustments we can all make to have a big impact on our health. Plus, we'll get their advice on detoxing our home and beauty products, and what to use instead.
First up, it's Tonya Harris with her tips straight from her book, "The Slightly Greener Method: Detoxifying Your Home Is Easier, Faster, and Less Expensive Than You Think."
Then we've got Sandee Ferman from No Tox Life - a company that provides natural, toxin-free vegan body care to help you live a cleaner, greener lifestyle.
And finally, we catch up with Stephanie Greenwood from Bubble & Bee Organic to discuss the impact of environmental toxins on hormonal imbalances and why we should use chemical-free products in our home and on our bodies.

Did you know that over 80,000 chemicals are currently being used in the United States? What's even scarier is that most of these chemicals haven't even been tested on how they can affect our health. Yet, we have seen the devastating effects of what these chemicals can do to our bodies, with the skyrocketing numbers of chronic illnesses and debilitating diseases.
So, what can we do about it? How can we make sustainable changes and help rid our bodies of these unwanted toxic chemicals? That's what my guests in this three-part series are here to break down for you. That's right we are talking how to Detox & Declutter Your Home, Your Products, Your Skin, and Your Body on the next three episodes of Food Heals.
