172: CARNIVORE vs ANIMAL BASED…why Paul Saladino switched and the benefits he’s seen. This is just one of many topics we cover in today’s episode as I’m joined by Dr. Paul Saladino who is very well known across all social media platforms as the animal based diet guru. Paul once only ate meat for an entire year, then switched his diet to what he follows now which includes fruits, fruit juice, honey, dairy, and even some starches. We talk about why he made the switch and what even got him into health and wellness to begin with in the first place. You may or may not know of Paul’s health issues prior, but he shares about that in today’s episode along with tips for those looking to go animal based on a budget, benefits one can see going animal based, the best foods to eat for fertility, how saunas could be hindering you and your partner from conceiving, is there such a thing as eating too much meat and developing high acidity in your body, and there’s even something called a “meat allergy” and what we should look for if we have it. We also dive into hidden plastics in consumables that we may never have even thought of like the paper the butcher uses to wrap our meat in, vacuumed sealed meat, and even dust in our homes. Everything from intermittent fasting to ways on how to prepare foods the right way to eliminate all variables in getting an upset tummy, Paul and I could have talked for another hour at least! This was such a fun conversation and Paul is truly a real, down to earth human being and I think as you listen, you will truly see his authentic, genuine, kind self come through….  Topics Discussed: → Followers Q+A → Does Paul eat Chicken, yogurt, and anything out of a can? → Carnivore diet vs animal based diet → Why Paul switched from carnivore to animal based → Improvements one can see on a carnivore / animal based diet → Tips on eating meat after going vegan 10+ years → Tips on how to enjoy eating liver → Intermittent fasting → Grounding → Fruit juice controversy → Fructose vs glucose  → Ways to digest meat if you’re struggling → Fertility (for men and women) → Do saunas cause infertility in men? → Best carbs for an animal based diet → Rice, potatoes, and tomatoes → Gut supporting foods → Why is raw dairy banned? → Unexpected consumables containing plastics and how to avoid them → Dust in your home → Protein allergy?
