In this compelling conversation, Psychiatrist & Health Influencer Paul Saladino advocates for the simplicity of eating real, whole foods and discusses their profound impact on chronic illness, mental health and overall well-being. At the core of this discussion is the importance of eating meat or maintaining a “carnivore” diet, something he says might not be right for everyone but is certainly beneficial for many. He details the detrimental effects of processed foods and funding-driven misinformation within the health industry. Saladino shares personal anecdotes, including the influence of his family's health issues on his career in medicine and nutritional science, his journey with vegan and carnivore diets and the adjustments in his dietary philosophy. He emphasizes the significance of metabolic health over conventional LDL-focused approaches to cardiovascular disease, touching on topics like LDL cholesterol, insulin sensitivity and the pitfalls of overreliance on statins. Additionally, he delves into his favorite forms of exercise, his thoughts on supplementation,and the impact of modern lighting (and lightbulbs) on health. The conversation wraps up with practical advice for achieving health by aligning more closely with the body's natural state and removing systemic impediments.
