528 Understand Trees, Understand Everything w/ Adam Haritan

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Adam Haritan is the founder of Learn Your Land, as well as a wild food enthusiast, researcher, and forager. He is launching a new course,</span> <a href= "https://www.treesinallseasons.com/"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Trees in All Seasons</span></a><span style= "font-weight: 400;">.</span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">He learned the value of wild food foraging while studying nutrition at the University of Pittsburgh, where he discovered just how beneficial wild foods could be in optimizing human health.  </span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Wild plants, on average, are more nutritious than their cultivated counterparts (i.e. wild blueberries vs. domesticated blueberries, wild lettuce vs. iceberg lettuce). The wild food diet is the diet that we, as Homo sapiens, have been consuming for the majority of our time on this planet, and it is the diet that we are most adapted to consume.  </span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Today, very few Americans consume any wild foods, and instead subsist on nutrient-deficient products that scarcely resemble anything real or natural. It’s no wonder that degenerative diseases like cancer, diabetes, and chronic inflammation are so prevalent.  We have abandoned our natural diet and are suffering as a result.</span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In this episode, Adam and Aaron discuss trees, his new course, and commitment to quality.</span></p> <p><br /> <br /></p> <p><strong><em>Adam Haritan’s Challenge;</em></strong> <span style= "font-weight: 400;">Find a tree growing close to your home and identify it.</span></p> <p> </p> <h1><span style="font-weight: 400;">Connect with Adam Haritan</span></h1> <p><a href="https://twitter.com/learnyourland"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Twitter</span></a></p> <p><a href= "https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCcbf8wnyVJl631LAmAbo7nw/feed"><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Youtube</span></a></p> <p><a href="https://learnyourland.com"><span
