You're The Cure, March 18, 2019

Today, Dr. Ben interviews Dan Baze with the Wolfforth Farmers Market. This is a local market that is now year around. You can shop the market on Saturdays from 10:00-2:00 and coming in May, Tuesdays from 4:00-7:00. This is a great source to help you, “Let thy food be thy medicine” and eat like your ancestors as Dr. Ben encourages. Dan tells the story of how he has used food to start the reversal of his type 2 diabetes and lose weight. Shopping a local market allows you to get more nutrient dense food and support your local economy. The mineral and nutrition content is so much higher when you can source food that is vine ripened. Dan shares the different vendors and products at the market. Dr. Ben explains how a farmers market is more than just a place to go shop; it’s a place of community and to be a part of something bigger than ourselves, and this particular market really is a family friendly event. Dan explains how the market allows lower socioeconomic groups to use their government aid to receive double value on foods.
