Now let's head to the show.

Hey everyone, this is Dr. Rucho, and with today's podcast, I had the Fortune to interview

Aaron Blaisdale, who is a PhD.

He's a professor at the UCLA Department of Psychology and Brain Research Institute. Super smart guy, really nice guy,

just generous in taking time out to speak with me. And we discuss gut evolution in attempts

to help you determine what your ideal carbohydrate intake is. I've heard some conflicting things regarding we should eat more or less carbs,

and I've seen some people misreference some data. And so I wanted to bring on an expert to help us

get the story straight. And so he does a great job of helping us sort through the information.

Also provides a really interesting narrative on gut evolution.

I propose a theory that connects or may connect certain types of guts, so certain gut types

that we'll talk about and the consumption of certain Neolithic foods and potentially provocating or causing

siebo. So I think that'll be really interesting. When I was trying to articulate this idea,

but I couldn't do anything about it.
