Wise TraditionsAuthor: Weston A. Price Foundation w/ Hilda Labrada Gore
The Weston A. Price Foundation's Wise Traditions podcast is for those who seek optimal health based on traditional wisdom. We believe that vibrant health cannot be cultivated in a lab, engineered through modern technology or found through "improving" nature. On the contrary, "life in all its fullness is mother nature obeyed," as Dr. Weston Price put it. We can learn from healthy societies of the past how to live healthier lives now. The Foundation's podcast is an invitation to follow traditional food and health ways to live our best lives. Our host and producer, Hilda Labrada Gore, interviews experts on a wide variety of topicsranging from nutrient-dense foods to improving mental health to homesteading to detoxing to healing emotional trauma to the power of sunshine and mitigating EMFs. Every episode offers the listener a way to heal, grow and live a more vibrant and happy life.

562: The Mental Health Crisis Is Not What We Think It Is With Laura Delano
Episode 562
Monday, 19 January, 2026
There is DEFINITELY a mental health crisis in the U.S. right now. But it's not about a lack of access to treatment or meds. Nearly one in four adults is on psychiatric meds, and nearly one in ten children is, as well. The crisis has to do with med-induced harm, according to Laura Delano, the author of "Unshrunk". And Laura speaks from her own first-hand experience with the American mental health industry. Since her early teen years, she has been on countless meds, including Seroquel, Prozac, Effexor, Provigil, Ambien, and Klonopin, all without any improvement in her worsening symptoms. Today, she describes her own mental health journey, offers insights about what sparked her questioning of the system, and why she's concluded that we would do well to question the nature of the crisis and to get curious about how to promote wellbeing with alternatives to psychiatric drugs.
