Hey folks, Rob Wolf here. The weight is over. Wired to Eat is now available anywhere

books are sold. You can check it out also at Wired toweet.com. Rob I want you to talk about your background again now that we're on because you had just said

your background and research and let's go over that for a second.

history I was a research biochemist mainly looking at auto immunity andmunity and cancer issues and had a lot of

health problems personally and that's kind of what drove me towards this investigation

into the paleo diet, ancestral health, evolutionary medicine.

Very interesting.

Now I have two questions for you on that.

Number one, what were some of the health issues,

if you don't mind going into.

And second, we've talked about this on the show,

and it's not being advertised like the like we've had the obesity epidemic that people are talking about or the

Cardiovascular disease epidemic, but there is a massive autoimmune

disease epidemic that seems to be like nobody's really talking about right what's

going on with that well we don't really know.

Like we definitely, you know, there's some interesting trends

so we start seeing these upticks and obesity

and then upticks in neurodegenerative disease,

cardiovascular disease, and then also auto immunity has been on an uptick. And we have some changes in our photo period, we have significant changes that appears in

our gut microbiome and the, you know the potential permeability at the gut interface.

There's some great research suggesting that the gut microbiome has an input in everything
