If you've ever relied on one of these calculators to determine how many calories you should eat, you might be shocked at how misleading they can be. You'll also discover how hair tissue mineral analysis (HTMA) can reveal whether you're a slow or fast oxidizer and what that means for your metabolism, diet, and overall energy levels.

My guest on today's show is farmer Justin Owens, who I recently met on an intriguing trip out to his farm near Spokane.

His company Manzo is the first beef label in North America to exclusively produce Fassone, beef from the Italian cattle breed, Fassona—known in North America as Piedmontese. Manzo is solely produced on Justin's ranch in Spokane, Washington, at Owens Farms. Everything is done in-house up to harvest, from breeding to birth to finishing!
