The Primal Kitchen Podcast (general)

This week, Morgan connects with Primally Pure founder Bethany McDaniel to talk about the link between real food eating and natural skincare. McDaniel used all sorts of harsh prescription creams and pills to treat her acne as a teenager and young adult–and dealt with red, raw, irritated skin as a result. She was blown away by the effects she eventually experienced after ditching the harsh chemicals and replacing them with simple, natural ingredients and began a Paleo diet. 

McDaniel talks about her passion for living a healthy lifestyle and how her husband's start of a Pasturebird, a pasture-raised poultry company, ignited her passion for making natural beauty products. She talks about the science behind her natural products, and the treatments visitors at to the spa at the Primally Pure headquarters can find, like lymphatic damage, facial massage & holistic healing.
