Summary
While training to be a physician, he was taught that eating a diet packed with fruits and vegetables was the way to go.
But, after practicing for several years, his patients weren’t getting any better despite following these orders and were dependent on a mix of prescriptions.
Convinced there had to be a better solution for his patients, Dr. Paul Saladino started experimenting with the carnivore diet personally and found great success.
After some time, he started testing how his patients responded to it and discovered it was a helpful tool for improving their health..
Since then, Dr. Paul Saladino has made it his mission to help people improve their quality of life by using the carnivore diet.
And in this podcast episode, you’ll learn all about his science-based approach to carnivore and his opinion on whether or not you should eat plants..
Dr. Saladino also shares his hierarchy of meat, how most people on carnivore are not eating nose to tail right, his thoughts on pork and meat sustainability, and so much more.
So if you’ve already started a carnivore diet or you’re thinking of doing so, this is one episode worth checking out.
