    Amen to everything Dr. Jeff mentions! I am a retired doc in Santa Rosa and I would add here in zone 9b growing cactus (for the pads and fruit), olives, pomengranate and jujube are all fantastic for health. &nbsp;I am trying medlars and chayote this year. &nbsp;I&apos;ve run out of space for more, esp since for wildfire landscaping nothing recommended within five feet off edge of roof gutters. &nbsp;The world&apos;s longest living people share the hobby of gardening, not being gym rats.

    I love the adventurous spirit in growing that Dr. Jeff is showing us! &nbsp; I have been ultra adventurous in my PNW home in Oregon as well... here in the Willamette valley I have grown many things that are not likely found such as Olive trees, Moringa, Banana, Mango and more...also Citrus that have to be protected in Winter, but nevertheless it&apos;s exciting when I have been able to try these plants... My latest healthy berry is the Elderberry, and I studied the different varieties that are used for medicine, and they are doing very well. &nbsp; I have sourced seeds from Mexico as I go there often and enjoy different types of beans and peas Thank you so much Dr. Jeff for sharing your ideas and stories for health!

    John, GREAT video! And Doctor Jeff Pierce.... Your message is what I have shared for 15 years, and I am a health &quot;crackpot&quot;. I have helped several friends, it starts with the gut. Keep the message flowing, it will soon be a way of life again. Loving it! ❤
