In this episode of the Health Fix Podcast, Dr. Jannine Krause sits down with Angela Ardolino, a trailblazer in holistic pet wellness and a passionate advocate for animals. As a Plant & Mushroom Medicine Educator, formulator, and speaker, Angela brings over 25 years of experience helping pet parents discover the healing power of nature.
Her journey into natural wellness began after her own rheumatoid arthritis diagnosis in 2013. Refusing to accept a lifetime of pharmaceuticals, Angela dove deep into the worlds of cannabis, herbalism, and functional mushrooms healing herself and transforming how she cared for her animals.
Today, Angela leads several ventures, including CBD Dog Health and House of Alchemy, LLC, that promote holistic pet care rooted in education, compassion, and science.
Dr. Krause and Angela dive into the endocannabinoid system, full-spectrum extracts vs isolates, and the power of real food, adaptogens, and medicinal mushrooms to restore balance in both humans and animals. They also explore why intention and quality control matter so much in herbal products and how holistic pet care can help animals live longer, happier lives.
Whether you're a devoted pet parent, a holistic health enthusiast, or someone curious about natural medicine, this episode will open your eyes to the profound connection between your health and the well-being of the animals you love.
