Inside Is Making Us Sick

Dr. John La Puma leads a tour of his farm on the Mesa to talk about cures for the 'Indoor Epidemic.'

Inside Is Making Us Sick

For Dr. John La Puma, “stop and smell the roses,” “get some fresh air,” and “touch grass” are not merely suggestions. They’re prescriptions.

We’re all susceptible to the Indoor Epidemic — the title of his new book — or the idea that being indoors makes us sick.

To illustrate, La Puma — a mix between trained physician, professional chef, best-selling author, and organic farmer — invited journalists to tour his small farm on the Mesa.
