What’s in your chicken?

Chicken can be a good source of protein…

But quality matters…

Eating regular chicken every once in a while won’t kill you, but don’t underestimate the cumulative effect these things can have on your health…

If you can’t find air chilled chicken, red meat is a much safer option…

Don’t buy this sourdough bread…

Sourdough bread can be a good addition for some variety in your diet…

But quality matters…

Opt for bread that’s made with only three ingredients - water, salt and flour…

Make unprocessed animal and plant foods the center of your diet and you will thrive…

Paper cups aren’t what you think…

If you think microplastics aren’t a big deal, think again…

There are several studies showing that microplastics are endocrine disruptors (PMID: 36726457, 34484127)…

And they’ve been found in human brain, ovaries, testicles, and arteries (PMID: 36726457, 36948312, 38745431, 39901044, 33395930)…

One study even shows it could be responsible for heart disease (PMID: 38446676)…

I wouldn’t underestimate the detrimental effects plastic can have on our bodies…

So I strongly believe we should do our best to limit our exposure to microplastics…

Start by avoiding paper cups, plastic bottles, aluminum containers, plastic cutting boards and your quality of life will improve…

Thank you for having me on the podcast. It was great chatting with Patrick about health again…

They’re using banned ingredients!? 😳

Ever wondered why Americans are so fat, sick, and unhealthy?

Over 65% of our calories come from foods like these…

So it’s no surprise that chronic diseases and obesity rates are higher than ever…

But the solution is simple…

If you’re craving a burger and fries, make them at home with real potatoes, sourdough bread, and cook everything in tallow…

Or go to a place that doesn’t use seed oils and other gnarly ingredients…

Avoid processed foods and your quality of life will improve…

Stop treating symptoms…

Popping a pill won’t fix the root cause of your health issues…

Drugs might suppress the symptoms but it won’t correct the underlying problem…

We know very clearly our poor lifestyle and eating habits are the real drivers of chronic diseases…

Your gut health is the foundation for your overall health…

And the biggest lever you can pull to support your gut health is improving the quality of your diet…

Avoid processed and eat more unprocessed animal and plant foods…

The black plastic utensils you cook with every single day might be poisoning you….

Most of the utensils we see in stores aren’t made from virgin plastic.

They’re made from recycled electronics which are loaded with flame retardant chemicals called PBDEs that were designed to prevent fires.

Here’s what the science shows:

- 85% of black plastic kitchen products tested positive for banned flame retardants (PMID: 39271080)
- DecaBDE (fully banned by the EPA in 2021) was found in 70% of samples tested
- The highest PBDE exposure group had a ~300% increased cancer mortality risk

These chemicals were phased out of electronics for a reason. The fix is simple and costs almost nothing.

Switching to wood or metal utensils is the single easiest swap you can make today.

Avoid these olive oils…

The quality of your olive oil matters more than you think…

Failing to choose a high-quality olive oil can expose you to rancid byproducts and oils that have been cut with seed oils…

While olive oil can have its benefits, I would never cook with olive oil and I prefer centering my diet around animal fats…

Animal fats allowed humans to thrive and evolve for hundreds of thousands of years…

Make animal fats the center of your diet and you will thrive…
