Notable quotes

• “The thing about humans that is different from any other animal on the planet is that we eat diets that we are not biologically designed to consume.”
• “After the industrial revolution in the 1700s, many people were disconnected from producing food and became consumers. This caused an increase in food processing, making it more dangerous.”
• “Most plant toxins occur in the seeds, nuts, grains, and legumes. Soaking and fermenting help with reducing the toxins.”
• “Liver is one of the most nutrient-dense foods on the planet.”
