Brian once again sits down with Miki Ben-Dor, a paleoanthropologist affiliated with Tel Aviv University. He specializes in the association between nutrition and evolution in humans, with a particular focus on reconstructing the Paleolithic diet. He conducted the study titled The evolution of the human trophic level during the Pleistocene (https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/ajpa.24247) and is the author of the 2023 book Live Paleo Style which can be purchased on Amazon. GET THE MEAT http://NosetoTail.org FREE SAPIEN FOOD GUIDE http://sapien.org SHOW NOTES (06:47) The top two principles that the hunter-gatherers of the past lived by was autonomy and equality. (15:44) What most people call the "paleo diet", Miki simply calls our "natural diet". (31:24) Sharing is common in all nomadic hunter-gatherer societies. (46:14) Those who continue to push the high-fiber, low-meat lifestyle are doing so disingenuously. (1:15:40) Brian and Miki recap just a few pieces of evidence that humans evolved to be high-trophic-level carnivores that do best when they primarily consume meat and fat (1:30:00) Meaning is found in helping others.

BUY THE MEAT NosetoTail.org Preorder the film here: http://indiegogo.com/projects/food-lies-post SHOW NOTES (12:05) According to Dr. Jaquish, 99% of people who go to the gym make no progress in their physique goals. (21:06) With variable resistance, you deal with more weight in positions where you are stronger, and dealing with less weight in positions where you are biomechanically inefficient. (28:06) For optimal muscle growth, you need a lot of protein in your system. Consuming up to 200 grams every day often makes it hard to eat anything else (i.e. carbs). (33:45) Metabolic rebound is the reason some muscle growth is associated with fasting, as demonstrated in a study conducted by Henry Alkire (https://www.linkedin.com/in/henry-alkire). (44:16) Supposedly, eating one meal per day puts you at higher risk of all-cause mortality. Dr. Jaquish finds a major flaw in the study (https://linkinghub.elsevier.com/retrieve/pii/S2212267222008747) which claims this. (47:06) A healthy heart is highly-dependent on testosterone. (56:40) Cardio is a waste of time.

After developing some minor health issues of his own after an extended back-packing trip through Asia,  Elliot decided to take responsibility and began researching ways by which he could find resolution without the use of pharmaceutical medications. Elliot soon discovered that the solution to his problems was rooted in nutrition and basic lifestyle principles.  Elliot's  experience, and the experience of those close to him, demonstrated the power of nutritional intervention. Elliots success in improving his own health journey inspired him to study nutrition at a professional standard so that he could go on to help others along the way. Elliot trained as a nutritional therapist at the College of Naturopathic Medicine in the UK, and later gained a qualification in Functional Medicine. https://www.eonutrition.co.uk/   BUY THE MEAT NosetoTail.org Preorder the film here: http://indiegogo.com/projects/food-lies-post     SHOW NOTES 01:20  How Elliot got interested in thiamine 06:50  Are you getting enough Thiamine When animals were given large doses of thiamine before being exposed to head trauma, it was shown to mitigate many of the negative ramifications of the head injury, and allow for normal functions to be carried out at a greater rate than the control group. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0005272818301208  Very high doses of B1 have been found to completely abolish symptoms of Alzheimer's disease. https://www.hormonesmatter.com/new-developments-in-high-dose-thiamine-the-legacy-of-antonio-costantini/  Large doses of thiamine have also demonstrated two almost completely abolished symptoms of fibromyalgia seemingly overnight. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3669831/#:~:text=Some%20observations%20indicate%20that%20the,mitochondria%20or%20to%20enzymatic%20abnormalities.  21:20  Why don't more people know about thiamine? 38:00  Oxalates and thiamine  Elliot credits much of his knowledge of oxalates to Susan Owens, who's website can be found here: http://lowoxalate.info/  54:40  Brian's story with oxalates 59:10  signs and symptoms of oxalates issues 1:10:00 Why Elliot chose thiamine and oxalates 1:17:00  Thiamine and the diet 1:30:00  How to find Elliot  Instagram- https://instagram.com/eonutrition?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y= Twitter- Elliot Overton (@EO_Nutrition) / Twitter https://twitter.com/eo_nutrition?lang=en  YouTube - https://youtube.com/@EONutrition Website- https://www.eonutrition.co.uk/     BUY THE MEAT NosetoTail.org Preorder the film here: http://indiegogo.com/projects/food-lies-post   Film site: http://FoodLies.org YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/FoodLies   Follow along: http://twitter.com/FoodLiesOrg http://instagram.com/food.lies http://facebook.com/FoodLiesOrg
