Unstress With Dr Ron Ehrlich

In this Unstress episode, we welcome back Dr Christos Miliotis.  Dr Christos has been exploring strategies to draw down greenhouse gases from the sky to soil for 17 years, with a particular focus on the role of microbes in building the soil carbon sponge and drawing in more water vapour from the atmosphere and storing it in the soil. In this fascinating discussion, Christo sheds light on the importance of soil bacteria and the diverse organisms that reside within.  ----  CREDITS: Host: Dr Ron Ehrlich Guest: Dr Christos Miliotis Producer: Amelia Navascues ----  You can also watch this episode at https://drronehrlich.com/  ----- TIME TO TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR HEALTH?

This week on the Unstress, we talked about Building Biology. It is a science that studies the health hazards with the built environment, and something I believe we should all be engaged on.  This week’s Healthy Bite, I get to reflect and discuss all different stressors that affect our health, and recognizing the 'whole' person and environment in disease prevention and cure may be the key to some diagnoses. ----  You can also watch this episode at https://drronehrlich.com/  ----- TIME TO TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR HEALTH?
