Today on the show I had an incredible conversation with Paul Saladino MD, one of the leading experts and authorities on the science and application of the animal-based diet. We covered so many valuable topics, specifically for women, that we plan to release the interview in two parts. Dr. Saladino is board certified as a physician nutrition specialist and completed residency at the University of Washington. He attended medical school at the University of Arizona where he focused on integrative medicine and nutritional biochemistry. He has used these diets to reverse autoimmune issues, chronic inflammation and mental health issues in hundreds of patients, many of whom had been told their conditions were untreatable. In this episode, we discuss the importance of food quality, what western medicine doesn’t teach us about nutrition, the connection to plants and autoimmune issues, healing skin issues, benefits of creatine and animal protein, ethical farming, the problem with oats and coffee, SIBO and the gut, why raw dairy, and much more. This conversation can serve as educational regardless of your diet preferences and discusses how anyone can have access to making better consumption choices.
