I am loving these wellness podcasts Alex!! My husband and I have been struggling with unexplained infertility for the past 6 years. I recently went to a doctor that believes in healing your body with food. I discovered that my liver is the reason I’m not getting pregnant because of all the food and products we intake. I’ve been on a very strict diet of only eating meat, fruit and vegetables, olive, coconut, and avocado oil. Honey and maple syrup. Rice and quinoa. I feel amazing. Some of the symptoms that I’ve been dealing with for years have gone. And I used to not be able to eat apples and cherries because I was allergic to them, and now I can eat them!

[@barbaraskamer9195]

Anxiety is a BIG fertility buffer.

[@mrsginny]

How is it coming along?

[@siljatanner1318]

I've been listening to Wise Traditions for most of 2023 and have never seen Hilda's face. 😂 Thanks for hosting her Alex!

[@pjfamily8176]

My wife and I have been listening since Covid hit and we also have never seen Hilda. It was so awesome to put a face to the voice 😊

[@hope4change2012]

After listening to an interview with Sally Fallon, I started adding 2 tbsp of butter to my coffee. My tired mom brain works so much better 🥲

[@jessicapierre5800]

My childhood bestie was Polish, and whenever I'd sleepover at her house in the summer, her parents would ALWAYS be sunbathing in the backyard naked 😅 I remember being like wow that is so odd - now I'm just like, you go guys... just maybe wait until your kid's friend goes home lol

[@jcmustian]

That's amazing lol but yeah maybe wait till the kid goes home 😂

[@pjfamily8176]

😂😂😂 Hahaha yes wait for the kids to be gone, but wow soo healthy!! Thankfully, we began following this way of eating and living before we conceived our first child, and have had extremely nutrient dense pregnancies, and first foods and never incorporated the conventional medicines that were seen as a norm for infants and children. We also sunbathe seasonally as your children , and we do not use sunblock, but instead, gradually build up sun tolerance as the seasons change, and we have extremely healthy, robust children that never gets sick.

[@naturaldyer]

I did not know this was cultural. my grandma was from Poland and came to us after the war. she would sit out in the sun all day.

[@annekendziora9114]

that is fantastic😂😂

[@courtneymellinger7540]

I was on soy formula as a baby, and grew up mostly on processed food until I was in high school and I started learning about nutrition. My entire life I’ve had low energy even when I eat well, asthma, have struggled with my weight (I was obese as a child), hypothyroidism, I could go on. My parents did the best they could, I’m not blaming them but sometimes I feel like the damage has been done and I will have effects of poor nutrition as a child for the rest of my life. Praise God that during the formula shortage in 2022, I learned that I’m unable to have a full breastmilk supply and my oldest was a few weeks old, I found the Weston A Price baby formula recipe and WOW. We don’t have access to grass fed milk where we are unfortunately, so we use conventional (yes I know the risks I went to school for animal science and was a herdsman at a dairy for years, grass fed is safer hands down) but my oldest is so healthy and strong. My second was born 6 weeks premature and I put him on homemade formula after he got out of the NICU and he is THRIVING. Their doctor is incredibly impressed with their growth and development and has no issue with them being on raw milk. I recommend this recipe to everyone 😂

[@aszurejackson8251]

I love the Weston A. Price diet, I read Sally's book back in 2010. It helped me so much with my Lupus. WAP diet help to get me off medication for Lupus. Kefir, Raw milk, and animal fats 🎉

[@jcmustian]

Thank you Alex! Us conservatives NEED to be raising healthy families!!!

[@alyssamuck729]

"Dead food" so true! Love that. I'm definitely saying that from now on!

[@yourworshiptv]

This girl Alex gives the best interviews. She has a very bubbly and exciting way of presenting any information. I like it because there's a lot of heavy or negative (which sells) but doesn't make me feel good/ empowered. Thanks girl

[@haleyh.7507]

This is one of my absolute FAVORITE guests you’ve had on! She gave some really great info, without being doom and gloom, and was so upbeat and positive. She definitely needs to do voiceover for shows or audiobooks!

[@MariahBaker17]

I love this! I did the gaps diet two years ago and my skin turned orange from the amount of carrots and butternut squash I ate 😅 worth it! The gaps diet saved my health!

[@arizonabowen5964]

Genuinely the hardest part is finding a local farm! But I’m so ready to start doing the work to nourish myself better

[@apurplevelveteen]

THANK YOU for this interview! FINALLY, someone who is healthy and sober in their whole health thinking. Nothing in this interview is extreme nor ANY mention of woo woo b.s. fad health stuff that isn't logical and full of incorrect b.s. Nothing drives me crazier than an extremist spouting off stuff that isn't even true. I APPRECIATE a sober, logical, fact based interview on health and healthy living.

[@JustineWren]

This just skyrocketed to my favorite episode so far! Such a great guest and interview. 🥹🤍

[@boop_96]

Thank you so much for the show Alex. You and your family are in my prayers. I really hope you get good news about your dad. Stay strong ❤

[@alchemicalsovereignty4957]

Love Hilda. She has the perfect caring, wise voice for the podcast she hosts. I started to listen once I left raw veganism and veganism a few year back. Went to a farm near me in Florida and got pasture raised bacon, wow did it make me feel unexpectedly re-energized.

[@arizonabowen5964]

I love how calming Hilda is!!

[@allys.vlogs.]

I left this podcast episode feeling completely hopeful and relaxed. Seriously thanks you so much for taking the time to interview and share such life changing information. Although you both kept saying you may feel overwhelmed listening to this I felt the opposite. This gave me a clear path of simple steps I can take to overall bettering my health and families. Thanks again ❤

[@bethanyslawik]

Polo Bear socks! Four out of five of my girls are wearing their favorite bear today.🧸 FYI RL had been having a major sale on children’s Polo Bear. $12 for a onesie, $20 for a dress, $30 for a reversible jacket. Unfortunately, I still haven’t found a discount on adult PB. 😅

[@angelicaharrison1014]

Ahh i love Hilda! I first found WAPF at the end of 2022 when I discovered Kori Meloy. I was into fitness & believed that real milk was fattening & never ate red meat. After I heard about ancestral eating I INSTANTLY switched to real raw milk, grass fed butter & lots of beef. I got pregnant within months after doing this & knew it was the diet. I wasn’t aware of any fertility struggles, but I got off birth control in 2021 so that says a lot. We have a healthy 5 month old baby boy now ❤

[@ciarajohannessen204]

Have Dr Ken Berry and his wife Neisha on your podcast! I love them, they say a lot of the same stuff as Hilda is saying and they opened my eyes last year. When I changed my diet I was able to get pregnant, now 27 weeks and my labs are very healthy

[@amelia944]

I loved this episode. I first learned about the WAP Foundation during a herbalism course in 2020. This episode was a great reminder of the foundational principles. Thanks for all you do Alex and TPUSA team!

[@samanthakwait8782]

I stopped dreading working out when I started to just do the things I love. I stopped running, I stopped HIIT. I will not jump because I have big tots😂 and I do the kinds of workouts I enjoy. Allowing myself to do that changed things so much for me.

[@alyssamurphy2002]

What workouts do you love? I feel like this is part of my problem 😊

[@milo_thatch_incarnate]

Love this for you! I really think that our bodies mostly tell us what feels good and healthy. What kind of movement feels best, what kind of lifestyle feels best, what kinds of foods even. Now, those intuitions and senses can be deceived by the engineered fake "food", but we know those are unhealthy. With natural foods, your body tells you what it needs through cravings, I think.

[@ashleylanzarone4022]

One of the best episodes you have done.I love your podcast, you bring such important topics that are not talked about to the forefront. absolutely love this guest. She was such a wealth of knowledge and wisdom. I will be buying the suggested books please do more episodes about health and wellness, love you thank you so much Alex.

[@breetreadway8631]

I just recently started binging their podcast Wise Traditions, so I was super excited to see Hilda was your guest this week!

[@Jun-bw6bv]

Soooo good!! Thank you for all this information💞 love the Spill over, i have recommended this channel to so many friends🙌🏻

[@danipantsz]

Loved this episode!! The foods she talks about just work!! They do! I’ve been able to improve my hormones (with my doc and no pills) primarily by this type of diet and the way I feel now is just so radically different than who I used to be that I cannot go back. And to think I was so scared of whole milk and butter. I hope everyone watching this is inspired to try it!

[@wallowinthehallows]

I am so glad to see Hilda on more podcasts that are booming right now. Thank you, Alex! 🙏 I’ve healed from my autoimmune disease from eating an ancestral, animal-based diet. It’s an absolute blessing! Thank you for spreading the awareness.

[@klaebornedanyale]

I just started listening to the Wise Traditions podcast and so enjoyed this episode! Thank you for the best interviews Alex! 🔥

[@caitlinwightman1694]

LOVE the WAP!!! They taught me how to feed my kids and baby led weaning!! We make our own bread, drink raw milk, buy grass fed beef and do so much more because of them!! Thank you for all these health podcasts! Love them, Alex!

[@elizabethshaklee8450]

So hyped to listen to this right now!!! I have The Nourishing Traditions Book of Baby & Child Care and they talk so much about this topic in there! 🙌

[@samanthacampbell2703]

I really really enjoy the wellness episodes. I consider myself a healthy or "well living" person but I still have work to do and this episode was very inspiring. Thank you Alex! Love you, mean it, byeeee❤❤

[@SKimilku]

Amazing episode so so good!!! I want to hear more on her thoughts about the gluten intolerance on bread!

[@laurenthewolf2983]

We need suggestions for good conservative bees wax candle sources for twilight lighting! I love this idea, nourishing our circadian rhythm instead of fighting it!

[@Nina-Aly]

Omg Polo Bear peaking out on the sock! 🥰🐻💙

[@dennaroney4017]

This episode is amazing! Thank you Alex! Continuing to pray for your dad!

[@rhyde0731]

Switched our family to raw milk 2 years ago and will never go back! It tastes delicious, our guts have never been better, and we definitely don’t catch every sickness like we used to.

[@kelleyolsen702]

So glad I found someone who has pretty much the same beliefs I do about politics, nutrition and health. Love WAP, thanks for all the holistic content Alex 🙌🏼

[@hughesky1]

I love Wise Traditions! I love Hilda! Aaahhh this is amazing 😍

[@ke3347]

Great interview. I would love an interview with Joel Salatin too!

[@user-vh3tx8px8z]

Oh my goodness I LOVED this episode, thank you, Alex! Really enjoying the health and wellness content lately! Have to go over and listen to Wise Traditions podcast!

[@jessicatimm5744]

This episode is so good!! Thank you Alex!!!

[@katibones]

Dziękuję ❤ wspaniały wywiad

[@kristaroll8011]

This was great! Sent it to friends. I just subscribed to Wise Traditions because of this! I will probably watch this again!

[@sunnyearound]

I loved, loved this episode!! I have always been a health nut, and I got to dive deeper into that world and learn so many new things. I also appreciate how Hilda was very positive and full of grace when it came to making changes. One thing at a time, one day, one year at a time. This is so very helpful to me who as a perfectionist I just want everything to be better right now, but that is just not humanly possible. Thank you, both!!

[@entwifey]

We’re moving to the mountains in Tennessee and we’re going to do a couple cows for the beef and I’m so excited to graze them. I love nourishing traditions

[@kaylasmith4492]

Wonderful episode, Alex! We are loving the health and wellness episodes!

[@laurenh1662]

This is amazing, thank you!

[@Housewifeforhim]

So excited!

[@KatiePitre1]

Thank you for this! I look forward to these interviews about health and wellness. I got the Nourishing Traditions cook book for a Christmas gift, and it has been eye opening. I'm looking forward to making some positive changes this year for my family.

[@breemj89]

Love Holistic Hilda and the WAP Foundation!! This one was so good!

[@CamilleHarris]

Watched the whole thing - thank you! Happy to know about them & I took notes 😀

[@darcycollins1987]

This is one of your greatest videos ❤ loved it!!

[@valmerlos]

MIND BLOWN 🤯 fascinating convo keep them coming 👏🏼👏🏼

[@sadeetowe]

This was a great interview, Alex! I have not listened to Wise Traditions before, but I am going to start now!

[@ashleyswim4663]

Love this episode!

[@thedancingcarnivore]

Looking forward to that Dutch test podcast, that sounds so cool! I haven't done one myself but I've been meaning to!

[@jezreel.chesed]

Avocado isn’t a “modern” fat for those of us indigenous to the Americas! Just sayin! Love this episode and grateful for Alex and her team!

[@megantrinidad8161]

Off topic, but Alex! I’m dead! The Polo Bear Socks 💀

[@EmmaxoOCE]

Another awesome segment Alex. Your podcast is awesome

[@MaryTravis-zw3fu]

Loved this one 💕

[@saras8446]

Duct help test - it’s the best thing! Amazing how God gave someone to create that test. Got mine done! Can’t wait for the video !

[@LarisaMW]

This was a phenomenal episode, Alex! I just continue to be more and more impressed by your content. Thank you so much for sharing this message and knowledge of how to thrive. My old naturopath recommended the Weston A. Price diet which I follow for the most part. My teen not so much. This has inspired me to do better. I also own Nourishing Traditions. For my breakfast/lunch today I had homemade bone broth (seasoned with Celtic sea salt) with grass fed ground beef fried in local butter. Hamburger soup lol. Tell me, where can I get the healthiest beeswax candles? And where can I get the best blue light blocker red glasses? I’d love your recommendations. I have mast cell activation syndrome which is like PTSD of the immune system with Lyme and mold illness (CIRS). I haven’t used candles in years because of toxins.

[@entwifey]

The information about the soy milk is so interesting- the presence of lactose helps the process of calcification!

[@user-kx7vz3gl1z]

I just LOVED this episode! So much great information! I watched the Earthing Documentary on her recommendation and we have been grounding in the summer but didn't have a way in the winter. After watching the documentary we researched grounding mats and purchased some. Now we sleep on them every night. They helped with our sleep the first night! I can't wait for summer to ground naked!! 😂

[@samanthamarie6012]

We tried a ground beef, beef liver, and beef heart mixture the other day. We couldn't do it!!!! 😢 Ugh. Maybe I'll try again lol.We are a food bank family so i can't eat as well as i would like to. But i do my best and spend 12 dollars a week on a gallon of raw milk and we have chickens, and buy kelly gold grass fed butter. Trying to get as much animal fat in our diets as possible and cooking in beef fat. Also it was Johnson and Johnson that had the carcinogenic sunscreens and they also sell skin cancer treatments. Weird coincidence huh? There may have been others that are carcinogenic as well

[@AlyssaMarie-vr8cc]

On the note of beans….I just made the most delicious homemade hummus with dry beans and it was SOOO easy. Put 1lb bag in the crock with 3C water (or broth), add seasonings if desired - and put on low for 6 hours. No soaking step required 🙌🏼 set and forget overnight ✌🏻 you can make any kind of dry bean this way and just skip the soaking step with your crockpot 😉

[@julianna1606]

LOVE the baby formula idea!!

[@Tiger-vv5vm]

Grains can make a person more reactive and irritable, wild, stopped grains and really feel a difference

[@BrookeHickcox]

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS This was so good!

[@1988pinkcoconut]

Apparently Kate Middleton does swims in ice water. So clearly “shivers” is a good one to live by!

[@theoriginaltunnelfox]

Fantastic ❤

[@kristenbryant9230]

Is it farmhouse in the Boone next week?!!!

[@milo_thatch_incarnate]

Are there any studies someone could point to that would indicate that imported produce is BAD for someone in one area because it was grown in a different area? I've never heard that concept before, and it sounds... out there, if I'm honest. But if it's legit, then I'll be on board! I just want to see the studies. Are they all in the books being referenced? I'm so grateful for your podcast, Alex. I'm 24 and married, and my husband and I are both learning about all of this stuff about the chemicals rampant in our food and water, and we've been working hard to make as much of our food as possible from scratch. The next step I'm looking toward is sourcing our meat and dairy and produce from local farmers markets, and figuring out how we need to adjust our budget to make that work! Your podcast guests have helped us SO much in this journey. Especially since we want to start our family soon, and I want to raise them on the absolute healthiest, most natural and satiating diet possible.

[@StarOfRaven]

Alex you should definitely have dr Natasha on! ❤

[@1988pinkcoconut]

I bought the Pluck seasoning based on the post of yours on instagram!

[@LauraAnn1980]

You should interview Joel Salatin! Very interesting fellow. I live in the suburbs and try to do as much as I can at home. I have a big backyard so I do an organic 150 sq ft vegetable garden at home. I can a lot. There is nothing like opening a jar of home grown tomatoes in Jan. The smell when you open the jar is pure summer!

[@britneygriffin6704]

When my husband and I told family our son would not be circumcised, we could tell some people were bothered by it. It did not change our minds at all. We didn't even bring it up first. They asked.

[@thenourway]

??Question?? Around 28:00 She was talking about location specific foods… so what if you were born and raised in one place but moved to another completely different place, do you eat like you personally did growing up or like the anscesteral people did of the new area? And what if two cultures are married? How to bridge that food gap?

[@JessicaLivingOnPurpose]

Alex, you could just do body workouts outside somewhere and do short 15 second sprint interverals. And maybe do it in the grass barefoot :) I belive in this and this is the only way I like to workout. And I enjoy doing yoga outside as well.

[@savanahbbb]

[@Thehungrytravelers]

My husband and I recently moved in with my parents (to save money on rent while going back to school) and they do so many things differently than we have done for the last 8 years living apart from them. They have an electric stove top so we cannot use our cast iron pan and have been using their Teflon pans. We used to turn off our wifi every night but being here, the wifi is attached to their alarm system so we cannot turn off the wifi. My mom loves the plug in wall scents and soy candles which we only use coconut candles. I have tried to educate them as I best as I can, as often as I can but it’s so exhausting to have to remind them every day. I’m going to invest in steel pots/pans, and beg my mom to only use coconut wax candles but I don’t know what to do about the wifi. Does anyone have suggestions?

[@mamat4165]

I'm 39. I've learned so much in the last few years than I have during my childhood and school. Man, does this crap anger me knowing that these companies were able to get away with this for so long.

[@jaclynbassett2432]

Love this episode! I tried finding the Easter egg...only thing I could see were the Polo Bear socks and then how Alex is on the opposite side than she usually is on the show. Am I right?!

[@sarahlrhoton]

Me too - I’m trying to find the Easter egg!!

[@bethanyslawik]

Polo Bear was my only guess. 😂 I watched this on KZbin specifically so I could find the Easter egg and still came up short.

[@yvettecarrasco]

I came here to ask - did anyone find the Easter egg? 😂

[@alanabateman2334]

Come to Flagstaff!

[@elizavetalanberg248]

I’ve been always curious, how do people on the north are supposed to live according to the rhythms of the sun?😅 I live in Estonia, in winter sun (if we are lucky to see it) comes at 9-10 am and is up until 2-3 pm. At the same time in the summer it is up in 3 am and is down around 11-12 pm…

[@LavendrHoney]

What was the website Hilda said we can find local farmers

[@alexandriaerickson9821]

When she says “ancestral diet”, does she mean food native to your part of the world *currently* or food native to where your ancestors are from… and if it is the latter, how how far back do you go?

[@user-lp9kz4vy8c]

I've been an ardent defender of Alex and nearly everything she says since before her TPUSA days. We truly have so much in common and I always imagined we would be friends if we knew one another personally. I've been in her cuteservatives group for years. I buy merch, i even defend Taylor Swift for Alex even though I'm into metal music. 😆 The judgement that's been allowed to permeate that Facebook group is disgusting. I watched as (probably hundreds) of girls were booted from the group today because they spoke up about the mean girl spirit of so many in the group. Even ones who didn't react on the post were booted. It says in the group description that its a judgement free group. That could *not* be further from the truth. I am 99% sure it was Alex herself that did the banning of the members. I have watched every live on my other KZbin account, and constantly engaged in everything for support. No longer. Alex, I'm sorry for what you're going through, but this has been at a boiling point for a while. Almost unhinged in your defensiveness for every ounce of disagreement someone shows for one of your *opinions* . I've missed the old feel of the show for a while, but stayed out of some sense of loyalty, idk why. I hope everything goes well for you, Alex. ☹️🩷

[@jamimccormack9220]

So what about coconut oil if you don’t live in the tropics or grass feed butter from Ireland if you’re in the states?? Things like that.. ??

[@ErinTheApartmentHomesteader]

Where do you go for hormone testing? Can they test ypur vitamin levels too with something like that?

[@abigailf857]

Well this kind of went off the rails but I like the spirit 😂 Alex I think you should push back a bit more sometimes and ask critical questions. Like, what is a light environment? Why exactly does local food matter? What about environments where there is not a lot of fresh produce for a good bit of the year (Alaska)? Do we truly think humans nutrient needs vary based on environment? This came to close to sounding more like mumbo-jumbo than actual wholesome eating advice to me lol

[@rachelhessenthaler7324]

Bees wax candles- is this in general, that they give off negative ions?

[@amandahughes7509]

Alex needs to take up walking and gardening. 💓

[@lindsey3481]

Interesting how our ancestors had much shorter life expectancy than people today. They were lucky to make it to age 50.

[@kaylahuntington7059]

I think it's a balance in all things. Obviously, people got sick back then despite eating better. And some of the sickness was deadly whereas now they don't have to be deadly. Balance of good diet and sometimes visiting the doctor.

[@UlyGooly]

I think it is because we take the average age for death toll. Infant death rate was really high, so the average is different than it is today with low infant death.

[@lizzyrn507]

But what is my region?! How far back in my ancestry do I need to go to choose the best diet

[@yvettecarrasco]

Is the Easter egg the blue wall? Maybe switching up the set?

[@kassieclark5616]

Now have Mary Ruddick as a guest!

[@Rachel-uj4dg]

So unrelated but where is her vest from!!
