Beyond Supplements: Why a Wellness Advocate is Turning to Living Soil in Italy for True Health

A recent video shared by wellness advocate Shayna Terese Taylor challenges the conventional approach to health, suggesting that the multi-trillion-dollar wellness industry often overlooks a fundamental element: soil quality. Taylor argues that most commercially sold wellness products and even 'healthy' foods originate from depleted soil, leading to a significant reduction in vital nutrients compared to decades past. In her video, Taylor highlights that industrial farming practices have stripped the land of essential microbes, impacting the nutritional value of food and hindering the body's ability to absorb nutrients. She states, 'No supplement can fix what’s missing at the root.' Driven by this concern, Taylor embarked on a personal mission to cultivate her own food. She announced her initiative to grow produce on 'untouched land in Umbria, Italy,' focusing on 'regeneration, ritual, and reconnection.' This approach, she explains, aims to establish a 'new standard for wellness' that begins 'in the ground, not a factory.' Taylor's message resonates with a growing movement towards sustainable agriculture and holistic health, emphasizing the profound connection between soil vitality and human well-being. She invites others to join her in this 'movement,' suggesting a collective effort to 'plant the future – together.'
