The Natural State with Dr. Anthony Gustin

200: Eric Edmeades - Closing the Evolution Gap


Listen Later

Eric Edmeades is a globally recognized authority in health, practical psychology, and behavioral transformation. He chats with Dr. Anthony Gustin about closing the "Evolution Gap."

For the past 15+ years, Eric has made extensive trips to live with the Hadza Tribe of Tanzania, one of the few remaining hunter-gatherer societies. He even organized the trip Dr. Gustin ventured on with Dr. Paul Saladino!

Eric's deep immersion and the insights gained from these experiences have significantly informed his work in the health and wellness industry.

His book Postdiabetic offers a holistic, actionable 9-week plan to tackle prediabetes and type 2 diabetes.

His newest book, The Evolution Gap, explores how the mismatch between our slow biological evolution and rapidly innovating modern lives impacts our health and well-being.

Tune into this episode to hear them discuss:

  • How Eric's unique family history sparked his interest in human evolution

  • The profound changes experienced by the Hadza Tribe since Eric first began visiting

  • Eric's evolutionary health journey and vegan vs. Paleo diets

  • Why it's easier to get diabetes today than it was 50 years ago

  • The "Evolution Gap" and why Eric believes almost every physical and mental condition erupts from that space

  • Using natural and artificial solutions to "close" the gap and align our lifestyles more closely with the rhythms/systems our bodies were designed for
