| Part 129 - Stephanie Seneff, PhD - Is Glyphosate Slowly Killing Us? | 07 Jul 2021 | 01:26:58 | |
Hey friends, thanks for tuning into Peak Human. I'm Brian Sanders, the creator of the much-anticipated Food Lies film. Things are going well with the post production so thank you for your continued support on Indiegogo and your patience. My guest today is Dr. Stephanie Seneff who has been studying the effects of glyphosate for almost 10 years now. She has put together TONS of science about why it's bad for you and the environment, even though it's marketed as safe. Of course Monsanto has led you and regulators to believe this. The tricky part here is that it supposedly doesn't affect human cells, but it does affect all the billions of bacteria in your microbiome and the soil biome. She'll get into all the details in this episode so listen on, my friend! Stephanie Seneff, PhD is a senior research scientist at MIT's Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Lab. Her new book, Toxic Legacy, explores the harmful effects of the herbicide glyphosate on our health and the environment. Her book is backed by shocking evidence that points the finger at glyphosate as being responsible for many debilitating chronic diseases. While at MIT, she received four degrees: a bachelor's degree in biophysics as well as a M.S., E.E, and a PhD in electrical engineering and computer science. She has also written dozens of peer-reviewed papers on the effects of drugs, nutritional deficiencies, toxic chemicals, and diet on our health.

| Part 128 - Dr. Stephen Hussey MS, DC on a New Paradigm Of Heart Disease | 30 Jun 2021 | 01:33:56 | |
We actually are filming a bit more for the Food Lies documentary in a few weeks at a great ranch in Oklahoma. I can't stress enough the lengths we are going to to make this the absolute best film possible. We need a mic-dropper, jaw-dropper, kale shake dropping film. ANything less won't work. It won't reach the mainstream. It won't reach Joe Cheeto out in Ohio. It won't reach the vegan in the coffee shop with the soy latte in Santa Monica. It won't reach the hilarious jokesters at the Harvard Chan School of Public Health with their comical EAT Lancet funded diet for planetary health with more added sugar and 3x the seed oils than meat. Well it probably will never reach those bought and paid for fake scientists anyway. But we are going to make it that good where someone there might watch it and realize they're living a lie and will quit their Kellogg's and Coca-cola funded position. Really interesting new paradigm on how the heart works and how atherosclerosis and other problems developed based on a bunch of research he's looked at. I don't think anyone's put it together like this before in one model like he's done. Very intriguing stuff. He attained both his Doctorate of Chiropractic and Masters in Human Nutrition and Functional Medicine from the University of Western States in Portland, OR. He is a health coach, speaker, and the author of two books on health; The Health Evolution: Why Understanding Evolution is the Key to Vibrant Health and The Heart: Our Most Medically Misunderstood Organ. Dr. Hussey guides clients from around the world back to health by using the latest research and health attaining strategies.

| Part 127 - Dr. Pran Yoganathan on Gut Health & Chronic Disease, Human Gut Evolution, and Plant vs. Animal Food | 23 Jun 2021 | 01:21:16 | |
Hello, everyone! Thanks for sharing this podcast and giving it a review on the podcast app or itunes. I'm Brian Sanders and I'll encourage you to also work your way back and listen to all these episodes of Peak Human or start back at episode 1. I'd additionally encourage you to check out http://NoseToTail.org to check out our grass finished meats, tallow-based body care products, and more. YouTube version: https://youtu.be/jM1u5Mtnh8o Today I'm talking to Dr. Pran Yoganathan who is a Gastroenterologist and Gastrointestinal endoscopist based in Sydney. He aims to empower his patients to embark on a journey of self-healing using the philosophy of "let food be thy medicine". Dr. Pran has a special interest in conditions such as Gastro-oesophageal Reflux (GORD), Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) and abdominal bloating. He takes a very thorough approach to resolve these issues using dietary manipulation In conjunction with an accredited highly qualified dietician rather than resorting to long-term medications. We talk about many of the main chronic diseases we face today on the worldwide scale and how gut health and your diet contribute to these. Anyone with a stomach and/or who eats food should find interest in this episode. Hopefully both. We talk about animal vs. plant based diets, meat and cancer, how the human gut evolved, the necessity (or lack thereof) of fiber, protein amount, meal timing, GERD and heartburn, gout, personal fat threshold, height of populations in relation to their diet, and much more. You'll like this episode if you're a fan of meat. You'll also like the aforementioned http://NoseToTail.org if you like meat and hopefully you enjoyed this silky smooth transition into some brief words about my company. This is how I have turned down all advertisers to this podcast. I'd rather steer clear of even the possibility of "strings attached" as they say. The one foundational belief I have in health and nutrition is around the ethical and sustainable production of animal foods and the inclusion of these in your diet. I work with many great producers here in the United States to produce and ship top quality food and body care products straight to you with no middle man. You can find all of our offerings at http://NoseToTail.org I'll make a deal with you so I don't bore listeners who already know about them. I'll get straight to the episode if you promise to just check out the site for 2 minutes. You will? OK thanks, just hit the pause button and we'll get straight into this episode with Dr. Pran Yoganathan.

| Part 126 - Dr. Ben Bikman & Dr. Ted Naiman Discuss Competing Ideas on All Things Health (AKA Ben & Ted's Excellent Adventure) | 15 Jun 2021 | 01:29:03 | |
Welcome back, friends! I'm Brian Sanders and this is the Peak Human podcast. I'm also the owner of NoseToTail.org where you can get all kinds of properly raised meats and the creator of the Food Lies film. We continue to work on the film daily and are just as desperate to finish it and get out to the world as you are. I know it's taking longer than expected, but we are making something truly special and there are a lot of factors we're dealing with. It will be worth it, trust me. This episode today is very special and a long time in the making. I got the top 2 audience favorites on one podcast. This nutrition stuff is so complex, it's never enough to get one side of the story so I thought I could at least get 2. I try to stay out of giving my opinions in this one. Perhaps 3 would be a crowd. We talk about so many interesting topics such as the carbohydrate-insulin model of obesity, the alternatives to this. The personal fat threshold, the insulin model of disease which is separate from how one becomes overweight. Satiety and how it fits into this. The processing of foods and how it plays in. Basal insulin vs. bolus. THe satiety vs. calorie theory. Also the big PUFA debate - are they as bad as they're made out to be? I think they are, but these 2 don't seem to think there's anything uniquely problematic with them other than they supply empty calories and we eat way too much of them. So they do think you should cut them out. I try to not interject much. I'm not trying to insert myself too much into these discussions. I have all kinds of guests on with differing opinions to expose people to all the angles of this complex nutrition world. I think something particularly with these guys and PUFAs, especially omega 6, is that they haven't spent the time to really dig into these details enough. They have busy lives and are focused on other areas of health. Just an idea. Really we're looking at the mystery of what goes on with food we eat and it's role in disease and/or obesity (which are independent of each other). Everyone should be interested in this to some extent. Maybe not to the level of a 90 minute podcast into some of the small details, but these are important questions that need to be answered. Dr. Ted Naiman is a board-certified Family Medicine physician in the department of Primary Care at a leading major medical center in Seattle. His research and medical practice are focused on the practical implementation of diet and exercise for health optimization. He has an undergraduate degree in mechanical engineering and utilizes engineering principles when dealing with complex systems such as human health and nutrition. Dr. Ben Bikman is a researcher and professor specializing in metabolic function, insulin resistance, and the drivers of metabolic disorders. He has a PhD in bioenergetics, he did a postdoctoral fellowship with the Duke National University of Singapore in metabolic disorders, and he's currently exploring the contrasting roles of insulin and ketones as key drivers of metabolic function.

| Part 125 - Stephan Van Vliet on the Cutting Edge Science Proving Meat is a Health Food | 09 Jun 2021 | 01:31:02 | |
Hello everyone! Welcome back to the Peak HUman podcast, I'm Brian Sanders and I hope everyone is doing well and eating a Sapien diet and living that Sapien lifestyle. I guess I'll clarify what that is. Many people are already doing it without realizing it - I'm just trying to give it a name. It's really just what seems to be the natural human diet. It's a framework and isn't the same for everyone and changes based on many factors such as where you live to where you are in your life or health journey. It's based on whole foods, ancestral principles and food preparation techniques. It focuses on the best, most bioavailable, nutrient dense nutrition which is from animal foods. It incorporates the least toxic plant foods. It's not carnivore, keto, paleo, or Whole 30 but has elements of these. I hate to have labels but none of the other dietary labels fit what I believe is a pretty basic framework for human nutrition. The lifestyle component is big as well and includes all the natural ways humans have always stayed healhty like getting outdoors and adequate sun, sleep, a form of movement, and so on. This is such a cool episode because Dr. Van Vliet's research is a brilliant intersection of 2 topics that should be near and dear to the hearts of everyone listening - how animals are raised affects the nutrient profile of the meat and how this in turn affects human health. He uses cutting edge science to go beyond the 3 macros, or 13 vitamins & minerals listed on nutrition labels, to up to 70,000 secondary compounds found in food. He also is working on a much-anticipated study (maybe only to me and those listening) which is randomized controlled and looks at red meat in the context of a healthy diet! How cool is that! This is what we've all wanted for so long. Compare eating red meat in the context of a whole foods diet compared to eating it with a bunch of processed foods that would be thought of as a Standard American Diet. Get ready to meet your new best friend in the nutrition research field. I'm so glad Dr. Van Vliet is doing this research and that he spent a solid 90 minutes with me exploring much of it. Get ready for a good one! Dr. Stephan van Vliet is a human nutrition scientist at the Duke School of Medicine. Dr. van Vliet earned his PhD in Kinesiology and Community Health as an ESPEN Fellow from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and received post-doctoral training at the Center for Human Nutrition in the Washington University in St Louis School of Medicine. Dr. van Vliet also holds a Masters in Nutrition Science.

| Part 124 - Brad Marshall on Why We Store Fat & What To Do About It | 03 Jun 2021 | 01:40:59 | |
Welcome back, friends! I'm Brian Sanders and this is the Peak Human podcast where I talk to the world's leading health experts, doctors, researchers, and regenerative agriculture experts about how to live your best life. Please start back at episode one or at least try to work your way backwards - each episode is a valuable piece of the puzzle. Please also give this podcast a review on the Apple podcast app so we can reach more people. Today I had the pleasure of speaking with Brad Marshall who's a great guy who raises low PUFA hogs and has a lot to say about PUFAs vs. saturated fat. Brad adds to the great lineup of guests talking about the dangers of these unstable polyunsaturated fatty acids. He'll get deep into the science on why they are bad for humans and why they are what's to blame for many (or most!) health problems and chronic disease. You won't want to miss this one! Brad's work is based on his understanding of molecular biology, his love of food history and cooking and his experience in agriculture. To that end he has a genetics degree from Cornell University and a Culinary Certificate from The French Culinary Institute. After college he did cancer research at Memorial Sloan-Kettering and did bioinformatics for The Berkeley Drosophila Genome Project before leaving professional science. For the previous 15 years he has raised rotationally grazed hogs and run a retail butcher shop and USDA inspected meat processing plant. Brad has written extensively about meat processing and meat science including Disastrous Trends In American Bacon. He is also a student of culinary history and historical diets. He goes deep down a rabbit hole in the middle of the episode on the electron transport chain and goes into some pretty esoteric stuff. I hope we don't lose anyone for these 12-14 minutes. Some people may really appreciate learning how the body produces energy down to this level, but if that's not you, then feel free to skip ahead. There's a lot of valuable info we cover after this part so make sure you finish off the episode. At my company Nose to Tail we also raise low PUFA, high omega 3 ratio pigs. We do chicken as well. Check that out at http://nosetotail.org We also have the primal beef which is by far our best seller. It has liver, heart, kidney, and spleen mixed into the grass finished ground beef and tastes spectacular. I keep getting reports of how people's kids love it maybe even more than they do themselves. Our seasonings are available with your custom box. I use them every meal actually. I always put the ranch in yogurt as a sauce but I'll also use the fresh catch on smoked oysters, the primal on any and all meats, and a new thing I did was put the thai seasoning on baked sweet potatoes. That was something special. They are fresh ground and have no fillers or funny stuff. I just got my new batch of biltong and droewors in. Biltong makes beef jerky a thing of the past. It's air dried so it's softer, uses no sugars or preservatives, has extra grass fed healthy fat on it, and of course tastes amazing. We have 5 flavors to try so try them out today at http://nosetotail.org We also just added a custom cutting board with the Nose to Tail logo etched in. Use it as your plate or just chop up our fine meats on it. All of our boxes have free shipping options whether for the fresh meat or the other products. For everything else we're doing check out http://sapien.org Join the newsletter there for our weekly roundup of the best content from around the web including our own original articles and videos. That's all at http://sapien.org Now please enjoy this episode with my pal Brad Marshall.

| Part 123 - Keith Littlewood on Fixing Thyroid Problems, Raising Your Body Temperature, Having a Higher Metabolism, Putting back on Weight, and Sleeping Better | 26 May 2021 | 01:28:26 | |
Hello everyone! I'm Brian Sanders and welcome back to the Peak Human podcast. Don't forget to start back at episode 1. This is that kind of podcast. It's not something I do each week with random people to create content so I can advertise people's products. It's a health journey I've been on for years where I talk to the best and brightest from around the world. The only products or services I talk about to support the show are my own that I have created with the best people I can find to provide great value to you and your friends & family as well as my own. Those are at http://NoseToTail.org But onto my guest today. This may be a hard one for some people to handle who are triggered easily by differing opinions. I talk with Keith today about adding carbs back into your diet. Many people have found so much success removing them from their diet, this may sound counterintuitive. However, some people may be having problems after going too low carb for too long. If you're not one of these people, then feel free to skip this episode. But if you have cold hands or feet, low body temperature (which I had and didn't really know), wake up in the night, are a female who has lost their period, don't sleep well, or have some other problems, you may have low thyroid problems. One way people have cleared up some of these issues is eating more whole food carbs, honey, fruit, sweet potatoes, etc. He is in a different dietary camp that does agree that PUFAs and seed oils are the enemy, saturated fat is fine, and eating nose to tail including things like liver and oysters is great. BUt they also believe carbs are good for the thyroid and do question fasting and extended keto diets. Really don't want to be dogmatic about diets so I wanted to have Keith on to talk about this strategy. I've seen it work for some people in the carnivore world that went a bit overboard, for example. I have been raising my body temperature and presumably my thyroid function by eating more carbs at night after my brief, intense workout. Keith Littlewood has been involved in the health, fitness and wellbeing industry for over 20 years and after working for a variety of organisations delivering training and rehabilitation strategies around the world. He is passionate about delivering services that resolve pain, energy, digestion, sleep, mood and other hormone related issues to get people functioning at their best. He has a masters of science degree in endocrinology with distinction, researching the accuracy of thyroid stimulating hormone in the face of mounting pollution, stress and nutrition factors and is currently getting his PhD.

| Part 122 - Nicolette Hahn Niman on Defending Beef - Uncovering Why it's Blamed for Health & Environmental Problems | 12 May 2021 | 01:29:58 | |
Welcome back everyone! So sorry for the little break in the action. I'm doing a lot of things these days - some might say too many. We got back from filming on the east coast and an amazing event with Dr. Bill Schindler at his food lab. You can catch the presentation by Dr. Cate Shanahan on the Food Lies youtube channel. For new listeners I'm Brian Sanders and this was for my documentary Food Lies and this film tour should be our last. We still don't have a release date for the film, but we're in post-production and working on it daily. My guest today is the great Nicolette Hahn Niman who is a California rancher, lawyer, and writer. She has authored two books about sustainable livestock farming: Righteous Porkchop: Finding a Life and Good Food Beyond Factory Farms, and Defending Beef: The Case for Sustainable Meat Production. I read her book years ago, but she's just releasing a new and improved version that I got a pre-release copy of. It is available July 13th but you can pre-order it on https://www.chelseagreen.com/product/defending-beef/ (find the link in the show notes) She's a really interesting person who is a great voice sticking up for beef and sustainable ag. She also has an interesting story about her own relationship with beef that we cover at the end! It's cool to hear her take coming from her background as an environmental lawyer. All of her peers are definitely on the other side of this issue! But guess what, they happen to be wrong! And she's a beef producer herself, so she knows the full story. I also happen to be somewhat of a beef producer with my company Nose to Tail. Years after learning of the superior nutrition of red meat and other animal foods I decided to partner with some great ranchers and get quality products out to the united states. You can find us at http://NoseToTail.org Our most popular product which is in very high demand is the primal ground beef with liver, heart, kidney, and spleen mixed in. Such an easy and delicious way to get the extra nutrition from the organ meats in your diet. Hopefully we're not sold out when you check us out. We also added a liver stick to our product line which is under the biltong tab. Biltong is a traditional South African way of curing meat without any preservatives or sugar. The stick version of this is called droewors. We just ran a 2nd batch of this with liver mixed in. It's way better than our first test batch. It tastes really good and has a nice texture. It's almost impossible for me to come up with a healthier product you can eat on the go. This is another limited run so get it while you can at http://NoseToTail.org Check out the superb body care products made from beef tallow there as well along with our freshly ground seasonings to go with the meat! In other news, the Cows 4 Kids campaign is ending soon. Go to http://Cows4Kids.com to pitch in some money for us all to buy some cows for some of the villages in Africa we visited. Mary talked to the director of the Maasai school and he was ecstatic to hear about the funds we are raising. He is going to make a whole event of it and is contacting some media outlets. There's also http://sapien.org for everything else. We have the program for people ready to change their life with diet & lifestyle, the Sapien Tribe, and more information on the Sapien diet. I'll stop talking about it - just go to Sapien.org to check it all out. You can link to everything there including the Food Lies film website. Now onto the show!

| Part 121 - Marty Kendall on Protein Confusion, Flawed Rodent Research, Nutrient Density, Satiety, and Insulin | 14 Apr 2021 | 01:30:22 | |
We're back with Marty Kendall, my nutrient density brother from another mother! I've been following his work since we recorded our first episode 2.5 years ago and he's always doing something interesting and informative. We cover a very interesting "scandal" in the rodent nutrition study world. I won't spoil the details but it really is a shame these researchers took out this certain data, because all the other work they've done is spot-on. We also hit all my other favorite topics in this one like nutrient density, satiety, insulin, personal fat threshold, the nutrient leverage hypothesis, and a whole lot more.

| Part 120 - The Datoga, Chagga, and Transition to Village & City Living in Africa - Our Experience in Tanzania & Uganda (w/ Mary Ruddick, CNC) | 31 Mar 2021 | 01:06:10 | |
Here we are at the end of the 4 part Africa series with my amazing friend Mary Ruddick. If you haven't listened to the previous 3, I'd suggest going back and starting at the beginning. I'd really recommend doing this for this entire podcast series. It's designed as an educational journey through the complex, conflicting world that is nutrition, health, food, the environment, and more. This episode covers the rest of our journey including the Datoga tribe, the Chagga on the slopes of Mt. Kilimanjaro, and the transition of all the native living populations into the villages and then into the city. It's a very clear decline in health as they do so. Make sure to watch this video interview on the Food Lies youtube channel to see all the photos and videos from our trip. I went back and added them all in and you'd also get to see Mary's smiling face as we talk! There's a bunch of great presentations and videos on the Food Lies youtube channel as well. You can see the Game CHangers DEBUNKED film, the Food Lies trailer, and a lot of short highlights from interviews that will go into the film. You'll hear us talk about Cows 4 Kids which is the organization Mary and I started after seeing the lack of animal foods in the diet of many of the tribes we visited, especially with the youngest people who need them the most. You can go to http://cows4kids.com and click through to the Indiegogo campaign there. We already are over 60% of our campaign goal through all the generous contributions to the cause. 100% of the money is going to purchase animals for the school children. Mary and I had a great Zoom call with one of our big contributors who put almost his whole covid relief check in. He said he didn't ask for it, didn;t need it, and would rather see it go much further to help the communities in need. Check out what we're doing at http://cows4kids.com Also support the show and my team by checking out what we're doing at http://nosetotail.org We have boxes of grass fed and finished beef, buffalo, and lamb that's shipped out to the 48 US states. We also have the low Omega 6 PUFA pork and chicken. Our other specialty is the ground beef with organs mixed in - it's extra special because it has the liver, heart, kidney, and spleen. Most people stop at the liver and heart. Our skin food is back in stock. It almost sold out immediately when we got our new batch. It's that good, I'm telling you. It's really a great deal as well because a little goes a long way. I still have barely dented my jar. It's made from regeneratively grown beef tallow and is all hand made. You can add on our freshly ground seasonings and biltong as well. Biltong is a south african traditional beef snack with no sugar, nitrates, or other wacky stuff. It really saved me on the long flights to and from Africa - I don't think I'd have made it without my Nose to Tail biltong. So thanks for sharing this show with a friend, giving it a review on your podcast app, and being part of the Sapien community! For everything Sapien including being part of the tribe go to http://sapien.org And now please enjoy this episode with Mary Ruddick.

| Part 119 - The Batwa (Pygmies) of Uganda - What We Learned From Our Time with Them (w/ Mary Ruddick, CNC) | 24 Mar 2021 | 00:58:29 | |
Hello my friends, it's time for another episode with the wonderful Mary Ruddick on our journey through Africa. This episode we make it over to Uganda and travel 10 hours to the Bwindi impenetrable forest to visit the Batwa tribe, better known as the Pygmies. This group used to live in the forest and hunt & trap animals and eat all natural foods until 1991 when they were forced off their land by the government. They now have to rely on corn and beans and other crops and are losing their health and their culture. The group we stayed with are mixing in with the other people in the village and are definitely losing their heritage. It was great to visit them while that's still possible. I don't know how many more years they'll be around. You'll definitely want to listen to this one and hear about the 120 year old great, great, great, grandmother dancing and stomping around with her (youngest) 91 year old daughter. We also got to trek in the forest and hang out with the few remaining mountain gorillas which was another once in a lifetime experience. At the end we talk about how the modern foods and oils are coming into the cities in Uganda and it's causing some big problems that are going to be devastating if it continues. Mary and I mention our new organization to help groups like the Pygmy, Maasai, and Chagga that we visited get back to their ancestral diets. It's called Cows4Kids and we do exactly that! Go to http://cows4kids.com and learn more and click through to the Indiegogo page that just launched today. We're putting in our own money to buy cows, goats, pigs, and chickens for these communities but are opening it up for others to do the same. This is not like a normal non-profit where there's all kinds of middlemen and administrative stuff. It's just us and you directly buying animals for the specific communities we visited. Mary is going to simply take whatever funds we raise and buy that many animals for each group. She knows many other groups personally who are in need and we can expand if people support the project. These people are not getting enough nutrition from animal foods and having a cow and chickens can supply them milk and eggs year round that will vastly change their health trajectory. What I'm most excited about is seeing the difference between the groups we support and neighboring villages who only have the corn flour, oil, and sugar, for example. This is all the Maasai school we visited had for their meals all day. If the community (and the world) see the differences in the health of the kids that get something as simple as milk in their porridge each day compared to those who didn't, maybe people will wake up, change their thinking, and stop dropping off sacks of grains for aid and get some cows instead! Go to http://cows4kids.com and support the project along with us. You can click through to the Indiegogo campaign there or search for cows 4 kids. Thanks everyone, we're very excited to get more of the animal foods they wish they had back in their diet. If you want to get some quality animal foods for yourself there's http://NoseToTail.org where we ship out boxes straight from our ranch in Texas to your door. We've added great products like biltong (which is a sugar free and additive free grass fed jerky), skin care from beef tallow which is absolutely amazing, and seasonings. There's free shipping options as well and that's at http://NoseToTail.org Also go to http://sapien.org for everything else. You can book something with Dr. Gary, join our Sapien program if you're ready to make some significant changes in your health and/or want to lose weight, or join the Sapien Tribe to get all the bonus content, private Zoom sessions with myself and Dr. gary, and much more. That's Sapien.org Now it's time for the show with Mary Ruddick and the Batwa of Uganda! Make sure to watch the video version on the Food Lies youtube channel for the photos and videos from the trip. You won't want to miss the 120 year old lady dancing!

| Part 118 - Rob Stuart on Complete Skin Health - Reversing Eczema, Psoriasis, Dermatitis and More w/ Diet & Lifestyle | 17 Mar 2021 | 01:09:54 | |
Hi there, everyone! This is your host Brian Sanders founder of http://Sapien.org, http://NoseToTail.org, and creator of the upcoming Food Lies film! We're back with a little break from the episodes with Mary on our trip to Africa for an awesome episode on skin health. This is an important topic to many people and should not be missed by anyone. The skin is the largest organ in the body and needs to be cared for like any other organ. Luckily it's a lot easier to care for because it's hanging out on the outside. But this makes it hard to take care of because - you guessed it, it's on the outside. Luckily, like almost everything I cover here on this podcast, you can heal your skin with a good diet. It's pretty amazing how important your diet is to every system and part of your body. We also talk about some other techniques like cleansing and washing and skin care products. Spoiler alert, the skin care products are made from beef tallow and I have them available on http://NoseToTail.org You can also make your own beef tallow skin care products if you have the time and interest. I had a great time talking to Rob Stuart and he's a real pro at helping people clear up issues such as Eczema, Psoriasis, Dermatitis and More. He's got a big youtube channel where he makes a ton of helpful videos on the topic and also works with people directly. Before we get to the episode I'll just mention a few other things we make at http://NoseToTail.org You can make a box of items and get free shipping anywhere in the 48 contiguous states if you hit the minimums. Other than the skin food and soap products we have the biltong - which is soft, air-dried grass fed meat with no curing agents like nitrates or sugar. The droewors is the stick version of this which some people like even better. So far the peri peri flavor is a crowd favorite. We also have the seasonings which are very unique. Other than them not having sugar, fillers, or anything else other than fresh herbs and spices, I have neglected to mention possibly the biggest secret to why they're so good! They are all freshly ground. This is not the case with any other mass produced seasoning available in stores. I teamed up with some great guys that make this themselves and get the ingredients in their whole form and grind it fresh for each batch we make for Nose To Tail. This makes a huge difference in the taste. Of course we have our staples - the primal ground beef with liver, heart, kidney, and spleen mixed in as well as the low Omega 6 chicken and pork. We feed these animals a special diet so they have an unparalleled omega 6 to omega 3 ratio. Make a box now at http://NoseToTail.org For our health program and tribe go to http://Sapien.org This is the best place to go to start your health journey or continue it. The Sapien Program is 10 weeks and will give you everything you need to get going along with a health coach. This is backed by Dr. Gary at Evolve Healthcare in Los Angeles but it can be done anywhere in the world. The tribe is the private community with all the perks, bonus features, and Nose to Tail discounts for members. Find that also at http://Sapien.org

| Part 117 - The Hadza of Tanzania - What We Learned From Our Time with Them (w/ Mary Ruddick, CNC) | 12 Mar 2021 | 01:02:27 | |
Hello friends, we're back for another African adventure. I implore you to watch the youtube version of this interview on the Food Lies youtube channel. I spent a very long time adding in all the photos and videos that we reference throughout this episode. It would be a shame to not see all of the visuals. You can even watch it on 2x speed if you click on the settings icon on the video. I even put in a recording of the song the Hadza sing to us (the full recording closes out the episode). Some of it is a bit graphic, I'll warn you! We got to spend time with 2 different Hadza groups which was very key in understanding more about their health and habits. Seeing 8 tribes or communities in total across Tanzania and Uganda was also paramount to our observations. Getting as many data points as we could really helped give us a well-rounded look at these cultures. Even this was just scratching the surface, however. We just got this one window into their lives and it would be ideal to come back at different times of the year and see even more groups. I don't want to spoil any of the stories, but I'll say we had some epic adventures going on long hunts with them and eating very nose to tail. Speaking of nose to tail, that's what my company is called. We have premium meat, snacks, and body care products from sustainable ranches at http://NoseToTail.org My other company is called Sapien where I work with Dr. Gary Shlifer to help people lose weight, reverse disease, and improve metabolic health. You can find more at http://sapien.org This is how this podcast and most of my work is possible. I have these 2 businesses that offer products and services I 100% believe and have developed from scratch or with people who are the best at what they do. I turn down all other advertising and partnership offers. Even though I leave a lot of money on the table, I think this is the best way to be unbiased with my content. By supporting Nose to Tail and Sapien you are getting a great win-win! You get top-quality products, and I can continue to pay for all the content production. We have something for everyone from grass fed and finished meat delivered to your door, to the air dried beef snacks, to the freshly ground seasonings, to the body care products. These are all at http://NoseToTail.org and there's free shipping options for all products if you put together a box. Plus we have the Sapien Program that I mentioned earlier and the Sapien Tribe if you want to get more involved in the community. You get all the bonus content, Zoom calls, and perks including a perpetual Nose to Tail large discount. Find it all at http://sapien.org You can still support the film on Indiegogo - you can click through from http://sapien.org and you can also support the show at no cost by sharing with family and friends and giving it a review on itunes or the APple podcast app. It all really helps! Thanks so much and please enjoy this next adventure with Mary Ruddick and I!

| Part 223 – Mark Sisson on Metabolic Flexibility, Alcohol, Fiber, and the Real Secrets to Longevity | 23 Jul 2025 | 01:06:04 | |
Mark Sisson, 72 and still shredded, returns to Peak Human for a powerful conversation on what real healthspan looks like — not chasing 180 years with futuristic tech, but thriving into your 90s with energy, strength, and vitality. As the founder of the Primal Blueprint, Mark brings decades of wisdom on metabolic flexibility, minimalist training, and practical ancestral living.
In this episode, Brian and Mark discuss how to optimize metabolism, how to train smarter (not harder), the real deal with fiber, alcohol, hydration, and carbs — and why metabolic flexibility is the key to enjoying life without strict rules, guilt, or orthorexia.

| Part 116 - The Maasai of Tanzania - What We Learned From Our Time with Them (w/ Mary Ruddick, CNC) | 10 Mar 2021 | 01:12:53 | |
Welcome back from the break everyone and welcome to season 9 of the Peak Human podcast! I'm Brian Sanders and I'm back from Africa with some stories! What an epic journey! I went there with Mary Ruddick, her boyfriend Drako who helped film, and director/filmographer Jay to spend some time with native living tribes to learn from them and get footage for the Food Lies film. For new listeners Food Lies is a feature-length documentary I've been working on for years. I've interviewed many of the top doctors, nutrition, and agriculture experts around the world and am now in the final stages of post-production. You can find the (very outdated) trailer and some great highlight clips on the Food Lies youtube channel. You can also find out about all that we're doing at http://Sapien.org and link to the film page from there. This is a special episode today with the nutrition genius Mary Ruddick who graciously planned this whole trip. I'd definitely recommend watching the video version of this podcast on the Food Lies youtube so you can see Mary's radiant, healthy face as well as photos of what we are talking about. This episode is just on the Maasai tribe in Tanzania. We visited 2 main communities and talk about all that we learned from our time with them. We'll have 3 more episodes coming out soon covering all the tribes and clans we spent time with. You'll here some super unique first-hand experience with one of the few groups of people in the world still living close to how they've lived for thousands of years. These are the people where the men live mostly on meat, blood, and milk. Spoiler alert - Mary and I drank the fresh blood and milk straight from the cow. Super cool experience along with a ton of other stuff we learned on how they are so healthy and live so long. Just to remind everyone this show takes on no advertisers or outside funding and is made possible by my organizations Nose to Tail and Sapien. We have the sustainable raised grass fed meat, body care products, seasonings, and more at http://NoseToTail.org and we have our physician supervised weight loss and disease reversal programs at http://Sapien.org If you're familiar with these great products and services feel free to skip ahead to the start of the show.

| Part 115 - Dr. Cate Shanahan & Tucker Goodrich on the True Cause of Disease and How We Know This | 05 Feb 2021 | 01:52:45 | |
Today is a special show that I really enjoyed with 2 guests - Dr. Cate Shanahan and Tucker Goodrich. I had Tucker on years ago for episode 20 and he laid out the entire case against seed oils which was very compelling. Dr. Cate has been on twice already (more recently) and is a wealth of knowledge on many, many things, especially the dangers of seed oils and reinforcing the Sapien diet concepts. We cover how people get fat & sick all the way down to the mitochondrial level. We discuss the different players in this process including seed oils (or more specifically excess amounts of omega-6), refined grains, and sugar. We also do my favorite thing and look at all sides of the arguments. We use an article a seed oil supporter wrote as a tool to check in on the studies and claims cited. You won't want to miss this one! It's a long one, but we cover a lot, and there's a bunch of great new info. This podcast is made possible by my company Nose to Tail where we offer nutrient dense, whole foods delivered to you.

| Part 114 - Kyle Mamounis, PhD on Extreme Diet Experiments, the Cause of Metabolic Disease & Insulin Resistance, and the Problem with Nutrition Science | 28 Jan 2021 | 01:31:49 | |
We jump in the weeds pretty quick but it gets better as it goes on. This is an interesting one with a scientist who's studying mice and looking at how different fats affect disease. Kyle was on a mission to find "the perfect diet." He was raw vegan and moved to raw meat and organs. He thinks a big problem is the high PUFAs in our diet and unnatural iron from fortified grains. He also has some ideas for people who have been on very low carb or carnivore diets and have problems like being cold, waking up in the night, women losing their period, or thyroid problems. Please listen to this one with an open mind! Kyle J. Mamounis, has a doctoral degree in nutritional science from Rutgers University in New Brunswick, New Jersey USA. He is currently a researcher at University of Central Florida in Orlando. His primary research interest is investigating the effects of fatty acids on energy balance regulation. He maintains a science blog with posts on his research interests, reviews of science magazine articles and general cellular physiology at www.nutricrinology.com

| Part 113 - Ben Pakulski on How to Overcome Your Genetics (and Past), the Most Efficient Way to Build Muscle, and How to Eat | 20 Jan 2021 | 01:19:32 | |
Welcome back everyone! I'm Brian Sanders and this is Peak Human - the podcast where you start back at episode 1! I met Ben at our Toronto MeatUp in 2019 and really like him - maybe it's because he eats pretty similar to how I do - 2 Sapien meals per day of mostly animal foods and low anti-nutrient plant foods on the side. Seriously though he's really great and has an awesome mindset on pretty much everything. Goes way beyond building muscle - which is important for absolutely everyone listening. It's not about being a bodybuilder and we don't talk much about that - it's about effectively doing some kind of workout to carry some lean muscle mass which everyone needs and will benefit them as they age. His info is legit - I already have been getting a better workout since we recorded this episode last week. I took some of his advice and went slower, stayed under control and focused on the muscles I was trying to work and was sore the next for the first time. Gyms are still closed in LA so all I have is my living room yet I was still able to train my muscles hard in my little 15 min routine I do. We actually talk way more about the mental side to diet, health, and living a meaningful life. This really was a great episode that touched on so many important topics that haven't been explored with previous guests. Check out our new product - Droewors (air-dried sausage) with liver and heart https://www.nosetotail.org/product/traditional-droewors-with-liver-heart-air-dried-beef-sausage-with-organs/ We also now have Nose to Tail artwork https://www.nosetotail.org/art/ GET THE FREE SAPIEN FOOD GUIDE! http://Sapien.org

| Part 112 - Judy Cho, NTP on Healing the Gut with Animal Based Diets | 13 Jan 2021 | 01:26:45 | |
Welcome back to show everyone, I hope everyone is doing well, and I hope everyone is starting back at episode 1 to make sure to catch all the great info. This is supposed to be an audio series on health & nutrition as well as lifestyle and it unfolds live over the past 112 episodes. I don't have sponsors so I don't have any other motivations to do this podcast other than to provide valuable information that I believe in. Each guest is purposefully picked and researched and adds another piece to the endless puzzle of human health.
Today I'm talking with my friend Judy Cho who I've been following for a long time on Instagram and has done a great job of providing people with easy to understand animal-based health information. She is a nutritional therapy practitioner and the author of Carnivore Cure. Judy holds a Psychology and Communications degree from the University of California, Berkeley. Judy has a holistic health private practice and works with clients by focusing on the root cause for an array of health challenges. Together, they work to create individualized solutions that are sustainable for the long term.
She lives in Austin and will be part of our growing Sapien community there. We start off with some mask and covid talk, so I want to put out a trigger warning for sensitive viewers who don't want to hear differing opinions than the ones on mainstream media. For the first time that I'm aware of a guest talks about vaccines. I don't like to touch the subject but it was nice to hear some thoughts on this from someone who's balanced and considers both sides.

| Part 110 - Robb Wolf on Freedom, Censorship, Germ vs. Terrain, Protein & Lifespan, Seed Oils, Seafood, and Electrolytes | 30 Dec 2020 | 01:49:10 | |
This interview has been a long time coming. I've always loved everything Robb has been doing over the years. He's been doing great work in this space far before I had a clue about health. It was a treat to dive deep with him on a variety of topics including censorship, the importance of the free share of ideas, germ vs. terrain theories, carnivore, protein & lifespan, seafood & human development, seed oils, electrolytes, and a lot more. It's a very different episode than any of his recent interviews so I definitely wouldn't miss this one! Everyone listening should already know who he is, but it doesn't hurt to read over a quick bio: Robb Wolf, a former research biochemist is the 2X New York Times/WSJ Best Selling author of The Paleo Solution and Wired To Eat. Robb has transformed the lives of hundreds of thousands of people around the world via his top ranked iTunes podcast, books and seminars. He is the co-creator of the Sacred Cow film and book as well.

| Part 108 - Michael Crawford, PhD on Seafood and Human Evolution, Mental Health, and Magical DHA | 09 Dec 2020 | 01:24:03 | |
Hello, hello everyone, it's time for another great guest on the Peak Human podcast. I'm Brian Sanders the founder of Sapien.org, NoseToTail.org, and creator of the Food Lies film that I continue to work on daily while I do these podcasts and post daily on social media. You can check out clips from the Food Lies film interviews and other presentations I've done on the Food Lies youtube channel. Today I'm talking to the great Michael Crawford, PhD. He is a storied researcher and has contributed a lot to our knowledge on brain development, human evolution, and marine foods high in DHA. I think the meat crowd needs to rally behind seafood a bit more and recognize its unique nutrients. He's a sharp guy for an older fella and there's a lot to learn in this one! Dr. Michael Crawford is a professor and researcher at the Imperial College of London. He is part of the Faculty of Medicine, Department of Metabolism, Digestion, and Reproduction. He is the Director of the Institute of Brain Chemistry and Human Nutrition, Founder Trustee of The Mother and Child Foundation and The Little Foundation. His research focuses on (i) the biological reason why docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) has been so unique in neural signaling for the past 500-600 million years of evolution (ii) application of the knowledge to prevent and treat neurodevelopmental disorder. To date we have organised 22 international conferences on nutrition, brain development and mental health. He also has an impressive list of publications I'll link to in the show notes.

We're back for round 2 with the one and only Dr. Sean O'Mara! We get into much greater detail than last time on things like visceral fat, physical markers of disease that track better than certain blood markers, the importance of physical appearance, optimal thriving diet for humans, and much more like how to lose visceral fat, how to heal your brain, the importance of sprinting, why we don't revere our elderly as much anymore, immune system, the microbiome, avoiding viruses, and beyond. This is a really great one and I'd recommend catching it on YouTube (embedded below) so you can see all the great visuals he shares with us. Here are the photos: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/cwvqtgz6g5snopf/AAByOIUZdPnpER4XmgnoG1cYa?dl=0 Dr. Sean O'Mara is a Performance and Longevity MD/Researcher, Speaker , and 2016 NSF Grant Recipient.

So far I've turned them all down so I can remain independent from any outside interests. I have my own beneficial products and services we offer at Http://Sapien.org and http://nosetotail.org to support the show, the film, myself, and my great team. I make a lot less money this way, but it's a lot more satisfying to not have to rely on anyone else or promote any other products. However, it only works if people support Sapien and Nose to Tail. Luckily we have amazing things to offer. Sapien is the health platform I've built with my business partner Dr. Gary. We have a practice in Woodland Hills, CA as well as an online program anyone in the world can join if they're serious about weight loss and disease reversal using diet and lifestyle. You can find out more about the program at http://Sapien.org You can also get the free Sapien Food guide there. Another thing we've got going is the Sapien Tribe. We have a growing community of people who are living this lifestyle and dominating life. I know that sounds pretty bro-ey, but it's what is happening. People have gone from a life of mediocrity or even ill-health to being in top shape, reversing their chronic disease, having great body composition, and not getting sick anymore! Tribe members also get all the extras like the bonus episodes of this podcast, the extended show notes, the private members area, and special access and live Zoom calls with Dr. Gary and me. You can find that at http://sapien.org as well. You can also get the Nose to Tail meats at http://nosetotail.org where we ship grass finished, ethically and sustainably raised beef, buffalo, pork, and chicken to your door. It's all raised in Texas and ships out each week to the 48 contiguous states. Our specialty products include ground beef with liver, heart, kidney, and spleen mixed in. I don't know of anyone else getting all these organs mixed in like we do. I think it's the best and tastiest way to eat the fresh organs to get the ultimate in nutrient dense, bioavailable nutrition. We also have high omega 3, low omega 6 pork and chicken. We feed them a special gluten free, non-GMO feed that makes their meat and fat very low in PUFAs.

| Part 105 - Nose to Tail Eating, Omega 6 to Omega 3 Ratio, PUFA Problems, Fatty Beef Snacks, and Beef Tallow Body Care | 11 Nov 2020 | 00:58:10 | |
Hello beautiful people, welcome back. This episode is a special one and I won't do a whole intro. I'll just let you know there's 3 different interviews starting with one of the original grass fed, grass finished ranchers in America who I partnered with to do Nose to Tail. He called in on the phone and the sound quality wasn't great, but his story and information are spot-on. Really great stuff from a 76 year old rancher who really knows health and is living proof of what happens when you eat meat in a healthy way. He's really into the Omega 6 to Omega 3 ratio and keeping the ratio near 1 to 1 like we would have ancestrally. He's been onto this about 20 years before anyone else. This is really awesome stuff. The next interview starts 19 minutes in and is with my South African business partner Gary I make the Nose to Tail biltong with. This is the traditionally made South African beef product that is kind of like jerky but a lot better. It is air-dried for 7 days instead of dehydrated at high heat in a matter of hours like jerky. We also don't use any sugar or other preservatives or curing agents. We use all the good fat instead of trimming it off like other people do. We're developing a dried sausage version with liver and heart. It will be the first of its kind in the world! The final interview 39 minutes in is with Tommy who makes the regeneratively grown beef tallow body care products. He makes them all by hand and uses nothing but a few natural ingredients. He'll talk about the origins of beef tallow as soap throughout human history and why using animal fat on your animal body is so beneficial. Really interesting stuff here with all 3 interviews that you won't hear elsewhere. Without further ado, let's jump in. Find everything here: http://NoseToTail.org SHOW NOTES

| Part 97 - Mary Ruddick, CNC (Sherlock Holmes of Health) on Reversing Disease, Debunking Blue Zones, Lifelong Health, and Ancestral Eating | 09 Sep 2020 | 01:28:05 | |
We're back for season 8 of the podcast. I took an unannounced break to work on the Food Lies film and make sure I'm getting top quality episodes and guests. I really don't want to just crank these out each week just for the sake of having an episode to release. I am constantly reading books, watching lectures, reading scientific papers, and previously going to conferences to seek out the best guests the world has to offer. Our guest today, Mary Ruddick, is just that. She is a nutritionist, teacher, and author of books and online educational programs. People come to Mary to resolve their otherwise impossible health conditions. She teaches them tools they can implement to rebuild their own immune systems, nervous systems, holobiome, and microbiome and once again take control of their health. Mary specializes in rebalancing the microbiome by addressing nutritional and epigenetic aspects that underlie various physical and mental health disorders. She is a specialist in the fields of autoimmunity, histamine intolerance (MCAD), mental disorders, and nervous system disorders that include dysautonomia, seizure disorders, and autism. She's been a nutrition professor, she's travelled the world living with and observing other cultures and native-living tribes, she's worked for big organizations teaching them about diet and lifestyles for disease prevention, she's miraculously cured her own ailments that had her bed-bound for years and years, and so much more. I've been talking to her for months and am ready to call her the Sherlock Holmes of Health. She's the real deal so I really hope you listen to this episode in entirety. We even have a part 2 coming out next week. So I hope everyone got a chance to catch up on the back catalogue of episodes during this little break. I'm so happy to hear all the great life transformations taking place, especially when people go back to listen from episode 1. Alright, so another reason I don't need to crank out episodes each week is I don't have any sponsors. So far I've turned them all down so I can remain independent from any outside interests. I have my own beneficial products and services we offer at Http://Sapien.org and http://nosetotail.org to support the show, the film, myself, and my great team. I make a lot less money this way, but it's a lot more satisfying to not have to rely on anyone else or promote any other products. However, it only works if people support Sapien and Nose to Tail. Luckily we have amazing things to offer. Sapien is the health platform I've built with my business partner Dr. Gary. We have a practice in Woodland Hills, CA as well as an online program anyone in the world can join if they're serious about weight loss and disease reversal using diet and lifestyle. You can find out more about the program at http://Sapien.org You can also get the free Sapien Food guide there. Another thing we've got going is the Sapien Tribe. We have a growing community of people who are living this lifestyle and dominating life. I know that sounds pretty bro-ey, but it's what is happening. People have gone from a life of mediocrity or even ill-health to being in top shape, reversing their chronic disease, having great body composition, and not getting sick anymore! Tribe members also get all the extras like the bonus episodes of this podcast, the extended show notes, the private members area, and special access and live Zoom calls with Dr. Gary and me. You can find that at http://sapien.org as well. You can also get the Nose to Tail meats at http://nosetotail.org where we ship grass finished, ethically and sustainably raised beef, buffalo, pork, and chicken to your door. It's all raised in Texas and ships out each week to the 48 contiguous states. Our specialty products include ground beef with liver, heart, kidney, and spleen mixed in. I don't know of anyone else getting all these organs mixed in like we do. I think it's the best and tastiest way to eat the fresh organs to get the ultimate in nutrient dense, bioavailable nutrition. We also have high omega 3, low omega 6 pork and chicken. We feed them a special gluten free, non-GMO feed that makes their meat and fat very low in PUFAs. I can go on forever about how great this stuff is, but just check it out for yourself at http://nosetotail.org I can't wait to share the new whole food products we're developing that will be out soon. Follow @eatnosetotail on Instagram or Twitter for updates. We've got some exciting stuff coming. You can also follow me on any platform if you search for Food Lies. I'm putting out all kinds of info each week and we have some good discussions going on there. Youtube as well. A bunch of great videos to check out. So that's all for now. Thanks for listening and sharing this show and any of the other content. Please give this podcast a review in the podcast app or on iTunes. Check out Sapien.org and NoseToTail.org and most importantly listen to this great info from the nutrition genius, Mary Ruddick!

| Part 221 - Easy Fat Loss with Natural Hormone Optimization w/ Chris Kruger | 18 Jun 2025 | 01:22:56 | |
Chris Kruger returns to Peak Human for an electrifying, no-nonsense breakdown of why the calorie paradigm is broken, how hormone health is the real foundation of lifelong fitness, and what he calls the "Forever Jeans" formula — a simple, powerful way to track your health without lab work or complex diagnostics. In this episode, host Brian Sanders returns after an eight-month hiatus with an update on his documentary 'Food Lies' and a deep dive conversation with fitness expert Chris Krueger. They discuss the myths surrounding diet and exercise, emphasizing the importance of natural hormone optimization over artificial supplementation like TRT. Krueger outlines a holistic approach to health that targets core strength, mobility, balance, and proper nutrition. The conversation also covers practical, actionable insights for achieving optimal health and fitness without the need for extensive gym workouts or rigid diet plans. The episode concludes with practical tips, such as leveraging whole foods and natural supplements like oyster capsules, to naturally boost essential hormones. Show notes:

| Part 96 - Dr. Paul Saladino on PUFAs, Insulin Resistance, Visceral Fat, and Longevity | 12 Aug 2020 | 01:25:20 | |
Hey hey everybody, hope you're ready for another information dense episode. We have Dr. Paul Saladino back on to dive deep on how insulin resistance develops. This is a perfect follow up to Dr. Ben Bikman on the last episode explaining to us how insulin resistance and other problems with insulin are the root cause to almost all chronic disease. It's also a great follow up to the many guests who have been talking about the dangers of industrial seed oils, euphemistically known as vegetable oils, and high levels of polyunsaturated fatty acids also known as PUFAs in our diet. I was thinking about this after we finished recording and thought I could have made a few more points and perhaps made this analogy. Maybe the disease process is like a hammer and a nail. You need both to create something. Either on their own might not be enough. Refined sugars and refined grains would be the hammer and the high PUFAs are the nail. Either one doesn't cause insulin resistance on its own. There's examples of populations eating high carb but not getting insulin resistance (although most of this is whole food carbs). But these people aren't getting a ton of seed oils (possibly zero) in their diet. And there also are examples of people potentially consuming a high amount of PUFAs (like one of the Blue Zones here in the Los Angeles area, Loma Linda) where they avoid a lot of animal products and presumably use vegetable oils as the guidelines dictate. These people have many other great lifestyle factors and remain thin over their life and they tend to have a disproportionate amount of centenarians. They do all the healthy behaviors to remain thin like avoiding sugars, processed foods, alcohol, and staying active. So basically these people never overstuff their fat cells and start the process of insulin resistance that maybe the high PUFAs would have then been there to cause the real damage. If you have all the other bases covered maybe you can get away with more PUFAs in your diet. There's some epidemiology that suggests this as well. I'm not saying this is ideal at all, and likely it's best to reduce seed oils as much as possible. I also am just theororizing here. It's interesting to think about the many factors that play into this complex process nobody has definitively solved because there always seems to be some counter-evidence to every theory and I want to take it all into consideration and not just blame things on a single villain. Please listen to this episode and let me know what you think. I'm on all major social media platforms if you search "food lies" and try to message everyone I can back. Before we jump in I'll do my new thing of mentioning my conflicts of interest. I believe I have none because I take no outside funding or advertising dollars for any products. I do have a company called Nose to Tail that you can find at http://NoseToTail.org where we deliver grass fed and grass finished beef and buffalo and high omega 3 and low omega 6 chicken and pork to your door. This is all raised here in America and not brought in from Australia or New Zealand like some other companies. I also am partnered with doctor Gary here in Los Angeles where we have a program to reverse and treat chronic disease and obesity. We see patients in clinic at Evolve Healthcare and online as well. You can find out more at http://Sapien.org or http://sapienprogram.com For those who are a little further down the healing road and want to connect with other like minded individuals and thrive instead of just survive, we have the Sapien Tribe. There's a bunch of extra features you get there like the exclusive videos, extended show notes, Zoom calls with Dr. Gary and I where you can get your health questions answered, the private feed area, and more. You can check some of it out for free at http://tribe.sapien.org We are running out of our special lifetime membership offers - they're more than half gone. Get in today and be part of the tribe for life. You also get the bonus episodes of this podcast. Today in this bonus episode I talked to Paul about the coca-cola funded lobbying and real conflicts of interest, the calorie in - calorie out equation, and what other things factor into the equation besides food. Joining the Tribe is really a win-win for all parties. Members get a whole bunch of perks and features and it also makes all the content creation possible on our end. Go to http://Sapien.org and find out about all these things I mentioned. Without further ado, here's Paul.

| Part 95 - Dr. Ben Bikman on The Root Cause of Chronic Disease and What to Do About It | 05 Aug 2020 | 01:26:28 | |
Hello everyone! Welcome back. Today we have everyone's favorite Dr. Ben Bikman for another engaging discussion. My name is Brian Sanders and I'm creating the Food Lies film which we're actively working on daily. I've been doing social media, youtube videos, and podcasts over the last 3 years as we've produced the film. I'm on a mission to spread health knowledge since I lost both of my parents about 6 years ago. Now I'll act like I'm giving a presentation at a scientific conference and give my disclosures - I take no money from any company, organization, or industry. I support myself with my business partner Dr. Gary treating patients with diet and lifestyle and getting them off of medications with the Sapien Program. Also with my company http://NoseToTail.org I started after finding out the true health of animal foods that are grass fed and finished, organic, ethically and sustainably raised. We sell grass fed and finished meat from our farm in Texas to the 48 contiguous US states. That's at http://NoseToTail.org With the Peak Human patreon where people throw in a few bucks to support the content production and keep me from taking on advertisers. And the Sapien Tribe where members get extra content, materials, and interaction with myself, health Coach Becker, and Dr. Gary. THe program and Tribe can be found at http://sapien.org And also with Grass Fed nose to tail products that we'll be releasing soon. Follow Food Lies on social media or join our newsletter on Sapien.org to get notified when these amazing whole food products go live. You can also follow sapien.store on instagram. We're even doing grass fed beef tallow all natural body care products. I'm excited to announce all of these soon! So instead of taking a dime from any product or advertiser or worse, I've developed my own products I am creating in small batches with the highest quality ingredients. Products that I believe in and across the board benefit people's life and health. If you choose to buy these, then great. If not, that's completely ok and I hope you'll find local farmers and artisans to purchase quality goods from. About this episode today. Ben Bikman has a Ph.D in Bioenergetics and a Masters in Exercise Physiology. He is currently an Associate Professor of Physiology and Developmental Biology at BYU. His lab research (Laboratory of Obesity and Metabolism) focuses on what molecular mechanisms mediate and cause metabolic disorders such as obesity, type 2 diabetes, and dementia. He is especially well versed in how insulin and ketones work as key drivers of metabolic function. He regularly publishes his research in peer-review journals and presents at international science meetings. His new book is called Why We Get Sick and I'd recommend it to everyone. It gets at the root of almost all modern chronic disease - insulin resistance and hyperinsulinemia. We talk today about this at great length. He can speak on so many other things as well, which he did in the my first episode with him Peak Human #57. I highly recommend people going back and starting with that one, it's one of the most popular episodes of all time. While you're at it you might as well listen to all the other episodes starting from the beginning. This is how people are changing their life just by walking around listening to free info I've carefully curated. Anyway, please enjoy this episode with Dr. Ben Bikman and join the Spaien Tribe at http://Sapien.org to get the exclusive bonus part of this episode where we discuss the ultimate longevity diet. So happy to get the great Doc Bikman to weigh in on this.

| Part 94 - Rob Tuncks on Plant Foods Causing More Deaths, Why Are We Told to Eat 80% Plant Foods, and Is It Possible to Feed the World? | 29 Jul 2020 | 01:29:21 | |
Food/population graph mentioned in the episode: https://www.dropbox.com/s/kqqlf9jjqrwjnie/food_population.jpg?dl=0 Hello my friends, we're back at it with another super interesting episode. I'm Brian Sanders and I'm creating the much anticipated Food Lies film. You can follow along with the progress as well as get daily valuable content on the latest health info, pertinent studies, nutrition news, and my diagrams and graphics making sense of the complicated and conflicting world of nutrition. You can find me on Instagram, Twitter, YouTube, and Facebook and join the now 100K people who are staying tuned into the latest and greatest info. Just search any of those platforms for "Food Lies" and you'll find me. Today I'm talking to Rob Tuncks who's an Australian farmer and former telecommunication company owner. He sold his business, retired at 30, and now produces grass fed lamb as well as other plant and animal food products. He has very insightful experiences with food systems and the morals we have placed upon them because he has experience growing both plant and animal foods he is acutely aware of the vast amount of deaths required to grow the staple crops so much of the world relies on. He also studies food systems on a world scale to investigate the enormous caloric need to feed 7.7 billion people and how we can accomplish that. We've been talking for many months about some of these issues and I think there's so many challenging and important questions that need to be answered here. Some of his views are a bit hard to swallow. Some are necessary to acknowledge and address. Some make our broken food system make much more sense. He also could very well be wrong about some of these things. I think there's some great solutions using holistic farming methods using plants and animals together. Humans are pretty intelligent and adaptable when we have to be. Instead of my usual announcements, I'm just going to encourage people to go to http://sapien.org to discover all the great things we have going on. No matter where you are on your health journey, we have resources and free things to help you on your way. We also have a link there for the Nose to Tail grass fed and finished meat. This is my company, I'm not promoting someone else's service. Everything we're doing at Sapien and Nose to Tail is created by us and for the specific purpose of getting humans healthier. We have the Tribe there with the special features, the Sapien Program, and more info about the Food Lies film as well. Just go to http://sapien.org and get everything there. I want to thank the community for being great and pushing this all forward. I love hearing your stories of success, so keep sending them in. Keep sharing this podcast and writing the reviews. And keep up your healthy living. Let's grow old together. Enough out of me, please enjoy this interesting interview with my Australian pal, Rob Tuncks.
