Podsnacks Notes for this Episode

• Regenerative Farming and Lard-Based Skincare: Charles Mayfield, a regenerative farmer and founder of Farrow Skincare, discusses his journey from the Paleo diet and CrossFit to regenerative farming and eventually launching a skincare line that utilizes lard. He explains the benefits of lard-based skincare and how regenerative farming practices can enhance the quality and nutrition of skincare ingredients.
  `
• The History and Benefits of Lard: Lard was a common household staple prior to the 20th century, but its use declined after the introduction of Crisco and the rationing of lard during World War II. Mayfield explores the evolution of the meat industry and how lard became perceived as an unhealthy fat, even though it is biologically aligned with human sebum and provides superior nourishment for the skin.
  `
• Addressing Misconceptions About Clean Skincare: Mayfield explains the common problems with modern skincare products, which often use synthetic ingredients, emulsifiers, and preservatives that can disrupt the skin’s microbiome. He highlights how Farrow’s lard-based products aim to provide a more natural, effective, and pH-balanced approach to skincare.
  `
• The Importance of Nutrient Density: Mayfield emphasizes the importance of using nutrient-dense, animal-based fats and proteins, both in our diets and in our skincare products. He argues that human beings have evolved to thrive on these natural, traditional ingredients, rather than the industrialized seed oils and synthetic compounds found in many modern products.
  `
• The Connection Between Skin Health and Overall Health: Mayfield discusses the close relationship between skin health and overall well-being, explaining how the skin serves as a reflection of internal processes and can be an indicator of underlying issues. He encourages a holistic approach to addressing skin conditions, combining both topical and dietary interventions.
  `
• Farrow Skincare and Product Recommendations: Mayfield provides an overview of the Farrow Skincare product line, which includes face and body creams, a CBD elixir, and goat milk soaps, all formulated with high-quality, regeneratively-sourced lard and other natural ingredients. He emphasizes the long-lasting nature of Farrow’s products and provides a discount code for listeners.
