Description
An advocate of a diet predominantly focused on meat consumption, Dr. Shawn Baker challenged the preconceived views about nutrition as he talks about his personal journey that led him to adopt a meat-based diet and the unexpected health advantages it provided for both him and his patients undergoing orthopedic surgery. He also discussed its implications for conditions like addiction, diabetes, mental health, and neurological diseases, and how dietary cholesterol has long been demonized when it can actually benefit our health. We don't just stop at health impacts; we also take a critical look at the broader implications of the carnivore diet. How does meat consumption affect the environment? What is the situation of cattle farming and producers in the United States? From the complexities of muscle protein synthesis and breakdown under the influence of a low-carb diet, the role of concentrated foods like protein powder, and how the carnivore diet impacts hormone balances, this in-depth conversation with Dr. Shawn Baker highlights how simple nutrition, devoid of processed foods, can radically change your health and lifestyle.Quick Guide01:24 Introduction09:21 Prevention through diet and lifestyle11:38 Challenges and Benefits of the Carnivore Diet23:12 Protein Breakdown and Carbs in Diabetes32:40 Protein Sources and Blood Glucose Response43:53 Carnivore Diet's Impact on Hormones49:29 Meat Consumption's Health and Environmental Impact1:00:10 The Power of Simple NutritionGet to know our guestDr. Shawn Baker, an orthopedic surgeon, has a solid foundation in medicine and athletics. Embracing a carnivorous lifestyle, he has become a leading advocate for the carnivore diet, which emphasizes the consumption of animal-based products for optimal health and performance. "And as anybody who's not living on a rock has heard, well, to save the planet from impending disaster, the cow farts are boiling the oceans and we got to get rid of the cows and we got to get everybody to eat more insects and soybeans and plant-based foods and that type of stuff, and we just need to cut back, whereas I think the opposite is true. I think we need to cut back on the ultra-processed foods and include more high-quality proteins in the diet. And the interesting thing is that a lot of us that do this, we actually consume far less food than the average person. We make far less waste." - Dr. Shawn BakerConnect with himTwitter: https://twitter.com/SBakerMDWebsite: https://carnivore.diet/shawn-baker-links/Episode snippets13:02 - 14:06 - Eat enough so you won’t want any garbage food28:16 - 30:02 - Our bodies are not created to consume powders36:17 - 37:09 - The poor release of insulin with diabetics How to connect with Stay Off My Operating Table:Twitter: Dr. Ovadia: @iFixHearts Jack Heald: @JackHeald5 Learn more: Get Dr. Ovadia's book Stay Off My Operating Table on Amazon.
