24. Exciting Adventures in The Future of Modern Wellness with Darin Olien
Do you understand what is going on in our environment today and how it’s affecting you and your health? Most of us are oblivious to the different ways in which our society, technology, and innovation is deteriorating both our planet and our bodies. And in this episode of HYDRATE, I chat with Darin Olien on how we can combat these things and live our healthiest lives. In this episode, we discuss the toxins in our water and the negative effects of dead water, our ego and why it’s important to process pain correctly, how what we’re putting in our mouth is affecting us as a whole, reducing our use of plastics and our EMF exposure, and Darin’s best advice on living optimally. Darin is co-host with Zac Efron on the widely popular Netflix docu-series called “Down to Earth with Zac Efron” and host of the #1 Health & Wellness podcast The Darin Olien Show. He is also a highly recognized exotic superfoods hunter, supplement formulator, and author of the New York Times bestseller book, “SuperLife: The five fixes that will keep you healthy, fit and eternally awesome.” Plus, Darin is the creator of the 121 Tribe, created to help people learn about whole food plant based eating, recipes, easy to follow education, habit tracking and exercise.
