Description
Dan Kittredge has been an organic farmer for more than 30 years and is the founder and executive director of the Bionutrient Food Association (BFA), a non-profit whose mission is to “increase quality in the food supply.” Known as one of the leading proponents of “nutrient density,” Dan works to demonstrate the connections between soil health, plant health, and human health. Out of these efforts was born the Real Food Campaign, now the Bionutrient Institute, which has engineered a prototype of a hand-held consumer spectrometer designed to test nutrient density at point of purchase. Via the Bionutrient Meter, the goal is to empower consumers to choose for nutrient quality and thereby leverage economic incentives to drive full system regeneration. https://www.bionutrientinstitute.org/meetdan BUY THE MEAT NosetoTail.org Support me on Patreon! http://patreon.com/peakhuman SHOW NOTES 00:00 - Dan's upcoming events 00:45- Why should we care about nutrient density? 1:25 - Weston A.
