In part 3 of our 6 part intro series we talk about everything ancestral nutrition. Richard takes us through the specifics of ancestral animal based nutrition including key nutrients only found in animals and the importance and benefits of these nutrients. We dive into why humans need specific animal based forms of nutrients like iron, Vitamin A, Omega 3 and more and how plant versions are less bioavailable. And lastly we also talk about anti-nutrients and how plants may be detrimental to your health or limit the absorption of specific nutrients.
