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.

Controversial Thoughts: How to tank your Testosterone!

April 16, 2021 11:30 - 25 minutes - 23.6 MB

Want to know how to raise your Testosterone? Don’t miss this video!  In it I discuss a recent meta-analysis (summary of 6 interventional studies) showing that low-fat, higher fiber diets lead to lower testosterone levels (and lower estrogen levels in women, along with a higher rate of anovulation/menstrual irregularities)! You know, low-fat, high fiber diets like a plant-based diet that’s claimed to be “healthy” for humans these days… No thanks. I’ll keep eating my organs, meat, and an...

Controversial Thoughts: Why you can’t lose weight!

April 02, 2021 13:00 - 14 minutes - 12.9 MB

The weight loss paradigm is all wrong!

Do you know what’s in your water?  You need to listen to this podcast!  This was a fun rabbit hole to go down after one of my clients brought the possibility of Uranium in mineral waters to my attention.  Guess what?  San P, and Gerolsteiner have a significant amount of this element= no bueno.

Controversial Thoughts: Your skin issues are related to your diet!!

March 19, 2021 09:00 - 19 minutes - 26.7 MB

Acne, eczema, psoriasis, vitiligo, all have their roots in inflammation and inappropriate immune system activation, but they are rarely discussed in the context of food… And yet the foods you eat are very likely to be triggering your skin issues!  In this Controversial Thoughts video, I begin to look at just a bit of the research regarding this and discuss a few very interesting studies in dogs looking at standard diet (much the like the standard American diet) vs a species-appropriate d...

Controversial Thoughts: What I think about the COVID vaccine and long haul COVID syndromes.

March 12, 2021 04:33 - 21 minutes - 19.7 MB

I said COVID twice in the title, and vaccine once. I’m pretty sure this video will get censored!    Vaccine thoughts: Apparent benefits but many have side effects with the second dose.    I hope it’s safe for the sake of my parents...   I won’t get it because I’ve already had COVID, it was mild, and I am metabolically healthy…   Here’s hoping there’s not a vaccine mandate. I think that’s a bad idea…   Long COVID: Looks like dysautonomia, could there be an underlying immun...

Controversial Thoughts: Is Honey Really the Same As Sugar?

March 05, 2021 10:00 - 33 minutes - 46.3 MB

Oooo guys! This is a good one, and it’s going to ruffle some keto-feathers…   There is a tendency within nutritional circles to fall prey to reductionist thinking…   We know sugar is bad, right? Therefore any foods (not matter how evolutionarily consistent) that contain sucrose, or the evil-fructose are bad for you, too, right?   Not so fast seabass!    These apparent evolutionary inconsistencies have always puzzled me and caused me to wonder about how foods like honey or fru...

Controversial Thoughts: Should you include calcium on your Carnivore or Animal-Based diet?

February 26, 2021 10:00 - 19 minutes - 26.5 MB

Short answer: yes!   Just because your blood calcium levels are within normal doesn’t mean you don’t need calcium in your diet.   How can you get this? If you tolerate dairy that’s a good option, but for most, I believe calcium from bones as MCHA (microcrystalline hydroxyapatite) is the best option.    That’s why we made our Bone Matrix supplement at Heart & Soil.     In this video, I discuss evidence for benefits of MCHA, if you should worry about calcium and heart attacks, ...

Controversial Thoughts: What I missed most during my trip to Africa

February 19, 2021 10:00 - 12 minutes - 17.2 MB

It’s good to be back in the US. My trip to Tanzania to hunt with the Hadza was amazing, and the meals I shared with them were incredible… The meat we had hunted in the bush earlier that day, along with honey and baobab we had found along the way- truly radical… Ironically, It was much harder to always get good food in “civilization” and this was the hardest part of the trip… In this edition of Controversial Thoughts, I share a bit about these struggles and the “creep” of processed food...

Animal-based vs Keto vs Paleo Though at first glance an #Animalbased diet may look like a ketogenic or paleo diet, there are some key differences. Though a paleo diet includes meat, this type of eating forgets about the incredible nutrient richness found in organs like liver, heart, kidney, etc. A paleo diet also leaves in nuts/seeds/and leafy greens which don't really provide any unique nutrients but do lead to a lot of gas 💨, bloating, and digestive issues for many people.
