Summary

Born in South Africa, Eric Edmeades has been fascinated by human history and the origins of our species since childhood when he learned that his great-grandfather, T.F. Dreyer, had discovered the Florisbad skull; a 259,000 year old sapien skull.

Eric has undertaken a 25-year Indiana Jones-like series of adventures to explore our origins; adventures that have included exploring caves, archeological sites, and conducting many visits, over a ten year period, with the Hadza people of East Africa, some of the last truly hunter-gatherer people left on earth.

Eric is also the founder of WILDFIT®️, a health transformation company that combines nutritional anthropology and food psychology to help people create effective and lasting lifestyle transformation. WILDFIT has served over 35,000 people in more than 130 countries and has 300 certified coaches around the world. WILDFIT, published by Mindvalley, has been selected (audience choice) as the Highest Rated Program on the platform for two years in a row.

0:00.0	Welcome to the Fundamental Health Podcast. I'm your host, Dr. Paul Saladino. This
0:10.6	podcast is the result of my relentless search to understand and correct the roots of chronic
0:15.1	disease and illness. In this podcast, I will share with you everything I have learned
0:18.9	about how to live the most healthy and radical life possible. Thanks for joining me on this
0:23.4	journey.
0:24.4	What is up, you guys? Welcome to another edition of the Fundamental Health Podcast. I am so
0:32.4	glad that you can join me on this week after Thanksgiving for a continued celebration of
0:38.2	Noose to Tale animal foods. I hope you guys have been joining us, have been walking with
0:44.0	us throughout the month for Noose to Tale November as we wrap up. I think it's something
0:47.9	we will do every year and it's been so cool to see how many lives have been positively
0:53.2	positively affected by the inclusion of more animal foods in their diet. As you will
1:00.0	hear on today's podcast about the HODZA, which is a group that I am fascinated by, this
1:06.3	group and other hunter-gatherer groups prioritize animal foods. There is no if-ands, but about
1:13.8	it, they prioritize animal foods. They celebrate animal foods. They eat animal foods in proportion
1:20.6	to the amount in which they are available and they eat them from Noose to Tale and they
1:26.0	treasure the organs as well. This is why we do what we do at Heart and Swale. This is
1:30.1	why I do what I do with my message. If you need more organ meats in your life, if you need
1:35.9	more spleen or pancreas or liver or heart or kidney or whole blood or colostrum or liver,
1:44.0	which I already said, check us out at HeartandSoyle.co. We've been out of stock and a lot of stuff
1:50.8	recently and I'll be honest with you, it's bumming me out, but I am super excited to announce
1:56.1	that by the time this podcast releases, Firestarter should be back in stock, we have Lifeblood and
2:01.4	B4Gans will be back in stock this week. So check us out at HeartandSoyle.co. You can
