0:00 Intro
4:14 Brown fat makes thyroid hormone when you get very cold and start to shiver.  
13:50 Average brain size and height of humans has gone down since the agricultural revolution.
18:55 There are 10,000 times more naturally occurring poisons in vegetables than in pesticides we spray on them by weight. 
25:27 Humans are carnivores. 
27:00 Fructose gives a dopamine response to the addiction centers of your brain. 
27:40 Fructose kills the same area of the brain as meth. 
28:48 Fructose is highly toxic. 
29:30 Cheat days keep you addicted. 
36:00 Fructose in fruit and honey worsens metabolic syndrome and fatty liver disease.
43:15 If carbohydrates were required to prevent low thyroid, our ancestors would not have survived. 
44:30 There is no essential carbohydrate. 
46:00 Dr. Chaffee’s Hashimoto’s patients have recovered or are recovering on a carnivore diet. 
 54:04 Cancer is a metabolic disease, not a purely genetic disease. 
54:30 Chronic disease rates increased exponentially since we decreased consumption of fat, cholesterol and red meat and increased fruit and vegetable consumption. 
55:30 People on a ketogenic diet have healthier, more in number and more effective mitochondria. 
56:45 Damaged mitochondria go back to primitive energy generation, fermentation. 
58:00 Mitochondria stop the cell from proliferating out of control, which is what cancer is. 
58:10 Cancer cells cannot run on ketones. A keto or carnivore diet limits the food supply of cancer cells. 
01:00:25 GBM (glioblastoma multiforme) patients can still be alive 8 years after diagnosis with the only intervention being diet and surgical debulking. The tumor can be eliminated.
01:05:30 Eating liver every day is out of proportion to what your ancestors did..
01:11:00 You need fewer nutrients and supplementation on a keto or carnivore diet. 
01:14:05 Chronic diseases being treated today are toxicities from a species-inappropriate diet and malnutrition – a lack of species-specific nutrition.
