    How To Fight Acne + Wrinkles In Our 30’s, 40’s, + 50’s | Dr. Mamina Turegano

    373: Adult acne AND aging at the same time can be frustrating, to say the least, and so many women struggle with both! So today I brought on Dr. Mamina, who specializes in a more natural and holistic approach when it comes to caring for your skin. Dr. Mamina takes an integrative approach to skin health, and in today’s interview I ask some of the most common and sought-after questions, like why so many women over 30 into their 50s still have acne, what the best treatments and products are for adult acne, and how we can help minimize wrinkles while also aging gracefully. We also discuss some of the skincare procedures you should NEVER do and, of course, the ones worth doing. But don’t worry, if you’re balling on a budget, Dr. Mamina shares the top two products we should all use that can truly make a difference in our skin, whether it’s acne, wrinkles, dark spots, or all of them! Topics Discussed: → The cause(s) of adult acne→ Why women suffer more than men→ The hormone responsible for acne and clear skin→ Why we should be using sunscreen and the best ones→ Best products for acne-prone skin (and the worst ones)→ Exfoliants (chemical vs. scrubs)→ Best ingredients for anti-aging→ Botox, fillers, and alternatives→ Best products for dark spots, sun spots, and acne scars As always, if you have any questions for the show please email us at digestthispod@gmail.com.

    Lab Grown Meat, Meat Glue, & Mixing Different Animals To Create 80/20 Ground Meat | Will Harris

    367: Meat glue, pink slime, lab grown meat labeling, and mixing different animals together to create that perfect 80/20 pound of ground meat you're buying are just a few scandals discussed in this episode with Will Harris, owner of White Oak Pastures. This is a 5th generation regenerative farm done right by us and in this interview Will shares what the USDA inspection process looks like, how big food companies treat their animals vs how he treats his own. And if you thought you were buying USA meat, think again! As of January 1st, 2026 there's been a new law put in place on how meat is labeled and it's not a good thing which makes it more frustrating for consumers to actually know where the origin of their meat came from and we are spilling the beans on what that new law is!
