Mollie Engelhart was once a celebrated vegan farm-to-table restaurateur in California. When she decided to put meat back on the menu, a targeted campaign forced her to close her business. She ultimately decided to make the painful decision to uproot her entire life, sell her farm, and rebuild from scratch in Texas. She’s the author of the new book “Debunked by Nature: How a Vegan-Chef-Turned-Regenerative-Farmer Discovered that Mother Nature Is a Conservative.” “We’re treating the soil and our bodies like we can outsmart them, but we’re getting sicker,” she says. Once an ardent believer in the vegan movement, Engelhart now questions much of what she once believed. “Nature taught me my ideas were ridiculous. ... My cow isn’t the enemy,” she says. Real environmentalism is “not to avoid nature, but to interact with her; not to try to out-science her, but to remember her wisdom,” she says. How does the health of our soil shape the health of our bodies? In this episode, we dive into the roots of our health crisis and why real change often starts small, with curious consumers and courageous farmers.
