Listen "#156 Glyphosate’s Biological Cost: Regenerating the Soil to Heal the Body | Martha Carlin"

Episode Synopsis


What if the key to healing chronic disease begins in the soil beneath our feet?
Martha Carlin, founder of The BioCollective, reveals how glyphosate, depleted soil, and microbial collapse are silently rewriting the story of human health. From autism to autoimmune disease, from gut dysfunction to emotional imbalance, we explore how the destruction of our soil microbiome mirrors the breakdown within our own bodies.
We discuss the science behind glyphosate’s damage, the urgency of rebuilding microbial diversity, and why organic, seasonal, and local food isn’t just a lifestyle choice—it’s a regenerative necessity. This conversation connects the dots between food, water, mycelium networks, emotional resilience, and decentralized health.
Martha Carlin is a former systems analyst turned microbial warrior. After her husband was diagnosed with Parkinson’s, she dedicated her life to solving the chronic illness puzzle through the lens of the microbiome and soil health. Her groundbreaking work is opening doors to a new paradigm of healing—rooted in nature, data, and radical hope.
