All right, Power Athlete Nation, before we get into this episode, we got a word from our sponsors.

John, what do you got?

I want to give a shout out to Steve's who makes some of the best beef jerky I've had in recent years.

As you know, I'm a big jerky snob, and this stuff is good.

What I like about it is how simple it is.

As I've always said, the best beef jerky is usually the simplest beef jerky and simple and easy. As I can attest, the big beef jerky brands use sugar fillers and subpar ingredients to cut corners and lower the price point so they can sell it a premium. But not steves. He uses the highest quality beef jerky with zero sugar, a few carbs, and a simple recipe based on natural ingredients, no artificial colors, flavors, or preservators. On top of having some badass jerky, Steve is also a family-owned business in South Jersey. He started with a simple obsession to make the best portable protein snacks on the market. And Steve is also a power athlete himself and follows a grindstone program.

So I love their tagline.

When you're at the top of the food chain, you like it.

If you guys want to give it a try, he's throwing us out a 20% discount code.

So use Power Athlete 20 on your first order and see exactly how good this stuff is.

Hey everyone, thanks for tuning to Power Athlete Radio. It's interesting that the consumption of meat has been largely responsible for so many evolutionary developments in humans,

and that some of the beneficiaries of this exact diet now stand in staunch opposition to it. Thank goodness there are those like

Brian Sanders of Food Lies, the upcoming film, with energy left to battle with rational thinking

and scientific studies. Here it is, episode 537. Brian, welcome to Power Athlete Radio, man.

You've peaked our interest.

People have been sending us some of your food lives, and it was an immediate follow for us,

and a lot of similar details jumped off the page from the message you're providing and we just had to

get you on man and sit you down for excellent conversation let's do it yeah i'm trying to spread

some truth in this crazy world we're living in uh yeah but i don't know people want to know this

stuff it's easier just to live in the facade you know know, and figure out what mainstream media is just pumping into them. I mean, it does seem like that. Some people just want to be plugged into the Matrix. And a lot of people don't want to wake up to reality. And yeah, the truth hurts sometimes. So give us some background. How did you get into this fight?

I mean, we were going through your, you know, your background and your CV a little bit. I mean, UCLA and, you know, Sapien and just kind of give us a little bit of the story in the background and how you got into this. Absolutely. Yeah. I mean, I'm a mechanical engineer by training, which I think helps sometimes. A lot of my doctor friends kind of admit that

they were a bit brainwashed into this way of thinking about food and medicine and health. And that
