Throughout my training and practice as a physician I have come to one very disappointing conclusion: Western medicine isn’t helping people lead better lives. Now that I’ve realized this, I’ve become obsessed with understanding what makes us healthy or ill. I want to live the best life I can and I want to be able to share this knowledge with others so that they can do the same. This podcast is the result of my relentless search to understand the roots of chronic disease. I hope you’ll join me on this journey.

Why You Should Eat Liver

November 27, 2021 19:24 - 2 minutes - 4.65 MB

Eating meat from properly raised animals is a great start, but it’s only part of the equation. To truly obtain ALL of the nutrients you need to thrive, organs like liver, bone marrow, spleen, heart, kidney, thymus, intestines, and testicle are crucial. Muscle meat has lots of nutrition, but it doesn’t have everything.

134. Can meat be part of a "sustainable" diet?

November 05, 2021 09:00 - 25 minutes - 47.1 MB

Short answer, yes.    All conversations about sustainability must take into account the nutritional value of the foods they recommend, as well as the long term effects on ecosystems with producing those foods.   Plant foods, especially grains like corn, soy, etc. fail miserably on both of these counts.    It's time to tell it like it really is. Well-raised beef is one of the MOST sustainable foods to include in your diet and monocrop plant foods are the LEAST sustainable foods yo...

Controversial Thoughts: Turmeric is BS!

October 29, 2021 02:03 - 32 minutes - 60.1 MB

First principles: Plants don't want their roots, stems, leaves, and seeds (seeds, nuts, grains and legumes) to be eaten- and they've clearly evolved defense mechanisms to dissuade consumption of these parts. (Animals don't want to be eaten either but they can run away, bite, kick, etc.) Why do we assume that plant leaves like kale or plant roots like turmeric are good for us? I'm not convinced, and in this video I go deep down the turmeric rabbit hole to tell you why I think it's BS. If you ...

Sleep is business. Plain and simple. Other than optimizing my food, there is nothing I have found to be more beneficial to my performance every day than optimizing my sleep. This means I don't mess around with these tenets... Light on my skin and eyes and grounding (usually through surfing) first thing in the am... I don't wear sunglasses, ever. I also don't wear contacts in my eyes during the day. 10 hour feeding window, strictly adhered to. First bite of food 630am, last bite at ...

Controversial Thoughts: Acid/Alkaline balance on an Animal Based diet

October 15, 2021 09:30 - 20 minutes - 37.5 MB

Plant-based pundits love to bloviate about the benefits of eating an "alkaline" diet, but is there any real science to support this?    Nope.    In this week's edition of Controversial Thoughts (available here and all podcast feeds as well as YouTube) I dig into the acid/alkaline balance and note how adding some fruit to a carnivore diet (= Animal Based diet, voila!) can be beneficial from a urinary pH perspective - which probably also reflects interstitial pH.    As I noted in l...

Controversial Thoughts: Can Kids Eat an Animal-Based Diet?

October 08, 2021 20:21 - 22 minutes - 41.5 MB

I don't have kids and I would never tell parents how to feed their children, but I get asked this question quite a bit and thought I would offer my ideas about how I might feed my kids in the future, and how I've recommended my sister feed my niece and nephew.    The short answer to this question is that kids can absolutely eat an Animal Based diet, and that doing so will avoid SO MUCH consternation at the dinner table when parents realize they don't have to force their children to eat v...

Controversial Thoughts: The Dangers of Long- term Ketogenic diets

If you saw my "What I eat in a day" video you know that I've been including fruit and honey in my diet for a while now and feel much better with these... In fact, I'm going to go so far as to say that I have a number of concerns about long-term ketosis and don't think this is a great thing for most individuals... Maybe there are a few out there who can manage this, but for most thyroid, sex-hormone, electrolyte and glucose issues develop over time with a ketogenic diet... Before you get your...

Controversial Thoughts: Can an animal based diet help with depression/anxiety?

September 17, 2021 10:00 - 26 minutes - 49 MB

You bet it can!    The current paradigm of mental illness focuses on neurotransmitter derangements, but these are not the root of the problem in depression/anxiety etc., they are a manifestation of underlying inflammation and metabolic dysfunction.    Yes. These imbalances underlie almost all chronic illness, yet western medicine sadly continues to focus on symptoms rather than addressing the root cause.    What is causing the metabolic dysfunction and inflammation in many mental...

I've spoken a lot about the importance of metabolic health in these crazy times, but what does this really mean? Find out in this week's episode of Controversial Thoughts (also available everywhere else and on podcast feeds) Simply put it means considering body composition (not being obese, overweight or having excess visceral fat), low fasting insulin (I talk a lot about this in this video), low fasting glucose and lower levels of insulin AUC (area under the curve) after eating.

I am not a fan...    Check out this week's Controversial Thoughts podcast to hear why...   In short, I believe that framing "cheat food," (which is usually junk food, let's be honest) as a reward sabotages long term benefits from a species appropriate human diet = an #AnimalBased diet.    Getting to eat the best foods on the planet (meat, organs, fruit. honey= the foods your ancestors have celebrated most for millions of years) is an abundant privilege, not something to be framed...

Controversial Thoughts: Is Carnivore MD an Omnivore?

August 13, 2021 13:21 - 13 minutes - 25.2 MB

The debate between plant-based and animal-based eating was over 2 million years ago with the extinction of Paranthropus robustus...   Hear this story and a bit of mine in this week's edition of Controversial Thoughts, my Friday rant/monologue podcast on Fundamental Health.   The simple takeaway here is that 75% of omnivorous species lean heavily toward either plant or animal consumption as the majority of their diet.    I would argue that humans are not omnivore generalists but s...
