    Understanding the What, Why and How of Female Hormonal Imbalances

    Understanding the What, Why and How of Female Hormonal Imbalances
    Following on some episode one; Laurence and Asha walk us through how different symptoms can arise in the menstrual cycle and in what way this can indicate an imbalance in women’s hormones. Together, they dive into detail about oestrogen, progesterone and testosterone, giving a lay of the land as to what each hormone does and when imbalanced, foundational ingredients that can help. Laurence and Asha also touch on the misunderstanding behind Soy, and how this can actually be beneficial to regulate hormone levels.

    This time I had the great pleasure to interview Eric Jackson, the CEO and founder of Pipeline Foods. After a career in conventional chemical agriculture and software could retire but decided to build the missing piece in organic broad acre row crops (grain and soy).

    He was triggered by a fascinating statistic: the US is a grain, corn and soy powerhouse but imports 75% of its organic demand. Why? There isn’t enough organic farmland in the US, so Eric started on a journey which led 18 months ago to the founding of Pipeline Foods, to build the infrastructure needed to get organic grain, corn and soy from the farmer to the food processor. Thus giving the farmers certainty and getting more farmers through the difficult transition process.

    Why are they focussing on broad acre crops and not livestock, or produce? Because of the scale that they can bring. Broad acre crops cover many many millions of acres and when you can bring them under organic and hopefully soon organic plus/beyond organic management can really have a huge impact on local/regional climate systems, biodiversity and water quality (which we briefly touched upon in the interview).

    Listen to the interview to hear why Regenerative Agriculture isn't a big topic yet for many broad row crop farmers as the market signals aren't strong enough (yet).

    Hopefully this changes soon. We also discussed the role of Impact Investors in the transition and the role investment vehicles and funds might play to help more farmers through the organic transition.

    An evergreen vehicle or a green bond, helping farmers who want to transition to organic, do so. If you are interested in developing this or now someone who is doing this, please reach out to Eric:)

    Pipeline Foods currently works with 1.5M acres in North America 150k acres in Argentina And is projected to do 150m-175m in sales next year.

    Soy and Your Baby: The Good, the Bad, the Ugly

    Soy and Your Baby: The Good, the Bad, the Ugly
    If you’ve been in a store’s baby section lately, you’ve probably noticed the formula. It’s hard not to notice it—there are more kinds of formula than ever before, and they take up a lot of shelf space. Milk-based, soy; regular, hypoallergenic … the variety can be overwhelming! What’s a parent to do? Before you buy any formula—and before you feed any to your baby—make sure you know all about it. Join Marie and special guest Dr. Heather Patisaul of NC State University for a conversation that provides the ins and outs of soy formula. Make sure you know about the phytoestrogens in soy and how they affect the body (short-term and long-term). Tune in for an eye-opening discussion of a product that’s become pervasive—for better or for worse, and consider information you need to make the best decision possible for your baby and your family.

    I interviewed Craig Wichner co-founder of FarmlandLP one of the first impact investment funds focussed on Regenerative Agriculture.

    We discussed many things! From soil carbon to drones and from deep roots to how we can show that regenerative agriculture is more profitable than conventional chemical based agriculture.

    Some key takeaways:

    • “How do you shift from a chemical based agriculture to a biological based agriculture?”
    • “Showing organic farmland is more profitable than conventional agriculture!”
    • Farmland“Organic farmland we have managed generates 72% more revenue per acre.” “53% of US farmland growing 2 commodity crops, corn and soy.”
    • “At least 4-6 times more revenue per acre growing sweet corn than commodity corn”


    The big shift comes from average farmer understand that sustainable agri is more profitable than chemical farming. Really looking at the land, what work best on this land in a sustainable way?
    “What is the best way to maximise biological productivity and economic value?”

    Future developments:
    They just completed a permanent crop suitability study for some of the land. Looking at the mix of perennial systems plus open ground. Next year they will be getting more technology on the farm, aerial imagery with drones.

    Consumers:
    “Milk is the gateway drug to organic products” as first time mothers start asking questions about the milk they give to their newborns. Organic standards aren’t the holy grail, there are some issues with it.
