Personalized wellness is reshaping the entire health conversation, and this new The Next Frontier Files episode proves the old rulebook is officially closed for good. From psychedelics and genetic testing to women's health investment and metabolic health, expert guests from year three of Salad with a Side of Fries reveal the trends that would become some of the biggest wellness breakthroughs, long before the headlines ever catch up.
