This episode I sit down with Dr. Anthony Chaffee, a neurosurgeon and longtime carnivore, for an eye-opening conversation on the benefits of a meat-based diet. He shares how nutritional research has been influenced by biased studies and religious beliefs, and discusses the weak association between red meat and cancer. He also delves into the physiological effects of carbohydrates on our metabolic system and the potential benefits of a ketogenic diet for hormone regulation and cancer management. His passion for neurosurgery and functional medicine shines through as he explores the powerful role of food as medicine and the impact of diet on our overall health. Join us as we explore the fascinating world of a carnivore diet and learn how it can unleash our true potential.
