Dr. Jeffrey Burke
Take a walk with me down Fascination Street as I get to know Dr. Jeffrey Burke. Dr. Burke has been an expert in the natural products & herbal supplement industry for the past 4 decades. In this episode, we chat about how he got into that field, and why he decided to become a Naturopathic Practitioner, as well as a Master Herbalist. We discuss his 20,000 plus episodes of his national radio show, and why he ended it after 40 years. Dr. Burke also explains what a naturopathic practitioner is, what a master herbalist is, and what it means to be a certified nutritional consultant. Dr. Burke extolls the virtues and benefits of several natural products including: Ashwagandha, Turmeric, & others; and then tells me about how those herbs help alleviate the symptoms of stress, inflammation, and allergies. We discuss The Mediterranean Diet, and how the things that we become allergic to change with our environment. Dr. Jeffrey Burke recently became the Director of Education for Kokora Life; and as such, he tells me all about the new style of farming that Kokora is taking part in. The owner of Kokora Life is Ric Scalzo, a leader in the field for decades, and he has instituted Certified Regenerative Agriculture practices on his farm in Costa Rica. Dr. Burke tells me what that means, and why it is transforming the farming & agricultural landscape worldwide. Finally, we discuss his podcast: Honest Health With Dr. Jeffrey Burke. On his podcast, he speaks with industry experts, as well as athletes, dieticians, and food health professionals. He even does deep dives on some of the specific herbs & products offered by Kokora Life. His goal with that podcast is to educate folks on the benefits of these supplements, whether they use his company's brand or not.
