#111 - Adaptation: Why we need true connection to heal from stress and trauma | Dr. Molly Maloof & Dr. Casey Means

Underneath biomarkers like glucose and physical aspects like mitochondrial dysfunctions are the root causes of disease: hijacked reward pathways, chronic stress due to constant threat mode, and the global human disconnect.
