HERE’S WHAT LISTENERS ARE SAYING
The Wise Traditions podcast is going strong! It’s all of the quality health information you have come to expect from WAPF
in a new form. You can listen directly from our website or from your favorite podcast app. It’s truly one of the simplest ways
to access (and share) our valuable content. (We even have episodes that recap our journals—so if you run out of time to read
the entire journal, you can listen to a summary bonus show.)

Feedback is overwhelmingly positive. Right now, on iTunes, we have over 250 five-star reviews and we remain solidly in the
top 50 of alternative health podcasts! This is QUITE an accomplishment for an independent podcast (not tied to any of the big
players like NPR, Gimlet or WNYC, for example). So start listening today. Here are quotes from recent podcasts and listeners:

“Mercury is a true poison. The number one source of exposure is dental amalgams/silver fillings. The amalgams are 50 percent
mercury and we know that they are always off-gassing in the mouth. Then we have the vaccines. They say that the mercury is
out of the vaccines, but many still have thimerosal, the mercury-containing preservative. The flu shot, for example, contains
a wallop of mercury.” ~Sally Fallon Morell, #135 Mercury: the hidden toxin (journal highlights)

“95% of all of the organic eggs and chicken and stuff in the country is factory farmed! They just use organic feed.” ~Joel
Salatin, #136 Joel Salatin: worldwide to hyperlocal

“[The indigenous diet] is basically this really wonderful, low-glycemic diet, with lots of plant diversity, really good fats, lots
of seeds and nuts, lots of really healthy proteins and it's just like a perfect diet—it’s just like almost what all the diet fads are
trying to mimic today.” ~Sean Sherman, #137 “The Sioux Chef & indigenous food wisdom”

Educational and interesting “This podcast is the perfect blend to help you learn, but also to keep you listening. This is my
go-to podcast for health and wellness.” ~Rachel1532, on iTunes

Good for newbies & veterans of the health world “Whether you’re new to what true nutrition means or you’ve been around a
while, this podcast is great for both types of people!” ~Starry11111111111, on iTunes
I trust this podcast “In this day and age when unreliable and downright false info is peddled by so many entities both inside
the government and out, this podcast is a breath of fresh, trustworthy air. Thanks Hilda and crew!” ~takamine98, on iTunes
