Today, I had the pleasure of chatting with James Barry, an amazing guest who accomplished something many thought was impossible—taking the healthiest superfoods on the planet and making them delicious and easy to eat. James used to be a celebrity chef and has cooked for some of the biggest names like George Clooney and Tom Cruise. As we explored the world of food and health together, James shared how he found his way into the ancient method of eating and how it can benefit everyone, especially entrepreneurs. Let's dive into the rich conversation we had about health, business, and everything in between.SummaryJames Barry discovered the key to making superfoods taste great. Once a celebrity chef, he spent years cooking for the stars and now shares the secrets of nutritious ancestral eating with all of us. In this episode, we explore the world of organ meats through James' brand, Pluck. We talked about how eating the right foods can boost energy and decision-making and ultimately bring longevity to our lives and businesses.Embracing Change and Seeking GuidanceJames spent the early part of his culinary career feeling like he was "falling to the bottom of the ocean," but he soon realized there is strength and growth in accepting guidance. With a new sense of being taken care of and surrounded by mentors, James understood that it's okay to walk in the footsteps of those who came before. "There's plenty of people that have come before me. I can just see what they did, replicate it, and apply it to my business," he said. This openness to learning created a platform for him to launch Pluck successfully.The Role of Routine in Health and SuccessJames shared the importance of routine in balancing joy and productivity. By sticking to a daily routine that includes exercise, he taps into the joy which allows him to solve problems more effectively. "I wake up at the same time every day, work out at the same time, and go to sleep at the same time," he said. Routine doesn't only improve mental clarity, it helps in making tough entrepreneurial decisions.The Origins of James Barry's Culinary JourneyGrowing up with non-gourmet cooking, James found a spark when he first scrambled an egg. The path to culinary success was not straightforward. He tackled many challenges, including a career in acting. It wasn't until after 9/11 that he felt the shift towards his true passion—cooking. Inspired by the need for authenticity and purpose, James took the leap and never looked back, even when it meant a significant drop in income.The Importance of Real Food and Ancestral EatingJames emphasizes that eating real, unprocessed foods can change lives. He has seen trends come and go, but eating real food remains constant. "There's trends, but what I've always focused on is eating real food," he stressed. James highlights the negative effects of processed foods, reminding us that food is not just about calories, it's about nutrients.The Significance of Organ Meats and PluckOrgan meats take center stage as James explains their importance in our diet. He talks about how being a dad inspired him to look into nutrient-dense foods for his kids and himself. Organ meats are highly nutritious and a natural multivitamin. Despite cultural barriers and lack of familiarity, organ meats were the answer. To counteract these challenges, James created Pluck—a convenient blend of organ meats and spices for everyone to enjoy. With Pluck, you get the goodness of organs without the strong taste. It's designed to be sprinkled over meals, providing a hassle-free path to better nutrition.External Resources:Get 20% off your order of Pluck with our Special...

Is eating only steak and eggs really the optimal way to follow the carnivore diet? Or are we missing something vital by overlooking the nutrient-rich parts of the animal? In this episode of the Primal Shift Podcast, we explore what the carnivore diet gets right, where it often falls short, and how eating nose to tail can revolutionize your health. The carnivore diet is a powerful tool for healing chronic conditions like IBS and autoimmune disorders, but many people focus solely on muscle meat and eggs, ignoring the broader spectrum of nutrients our bodies need to thrive. Drawing insights from evolutionary history and nutritional science, I explain why organs, fat, and connective tissue are indispensable for a truly optimal diet. After all, even true carnivores like lions and wolves prioritize these nutrient-dense parts of their prey. We also take a critical look at commonly consumed foods within the carnivore community, such as poultry and eggs. While egg yolks are nutritional powerhouses, egg whites come with potential downsides, including anti-nutrients like avidin that can interfere with biotin absorption. Similarly, conventional poultry — which is high in unstable PUFAs and low in nutrients — was never a staple in ancestral diets. These details matter when aiming for peak health. I also address common concerns about organ meats and why eating nose to tail aligns with how humans evolved. If you find fresh organs impractical, freeze-dried supplements can offer a convenient alternative without compromising on nutrients. Whether you're using the carnivore diet to heal or optimize, this episode will help you rethink your approach and get the most out of your meals. And once healing is achieved, I share how you can reintroduce other foods — like seasonal plants, raw honey and dairy — while maintaining a foundation of nutrient-dense animal foods. Are you ready to embrace the way humans were designed to eat? Tune in for practical tips, evolutionary insights, and strategies to make the carnivore diet work for you. Don't forget to share your thoughts: Have you tried a nose-to-tail approach or strict carnivore? What's worked for you? Let's continue the conversation in the comments or on social media.

Dr. Saladino dives into the evolution of keto and carnivore diets, cutting through trends to focus on lasting health impacts. Dr. Saladino, widely recognized as CarnivoreMD, shares how his own diet shifted to include fruit and honey alongside animal-based nutrition, and why metabolic flexibility—not rigid rules—leads to better outcomes. Together, he and Dave challenge assumptions about long-term ketosis, examine its potential downsides, and explore how to optimize diets for energy, gut health, and longevity. They also tackle controversial topics like the risks of seed oils, the overhyped reputation of “health foods” like quinoa, and the critical roles insulin and nutrient density play in overall wellness. With insights on balancing mTOR, managing omega fats, and incorporating organ meats, this episode offers a nuanced perspective for anyone interested in biohacking, nutrition science, or simply eating smarter. What you'll learn: • Why metabolic flexibility matters more than strict diet rules • The science behind long-term ketosis and insulin's broader role in health • How common “health foods” could be doing more harm than good • The importance of nutrient-dense animal-based foods for gut and immune health • How to achieve optimal balance between fat types, mTOR, and longevity markers Resources: 2025 Biohacking Conference – https://biohackingconference.com/2025 Shop Paul Saladino's Products – https://heartandsoil.co Follow Paul Saladino on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/paulsaladinomd/ Paul Saladino's Book: The Carnivore Code – https://www.amazon.com/Carnivore-Code-Unlocking-Returning-Ancestral/dp/035846997X Lineage Provisions – 100% Grass-Fed Beef Tallow – https://lineageprovisions.com/products/100-grass-fed-beef-tallow Danger Coffee – https://dangercoffee.com Danger Coffee Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/dangercoffeeofficial/ Dave Asprey's Website – https://daveasprey.com Dave Asprey's Book: Smarter Not Harder – https://daveasprey.com/books Dave Asprey's Linktree – https://linktr.ee/daveasprey Upgrade Collective: Join The Human Upgrade Podcast Live – https://www.ourupgradecollective.com Own an Upgrade Labs – https://ownanupgradelabs.com Upgrade Labs – https://upgradelabs.com 40 Years of Zen – Neurofeedback Training for Advanced Cognitive Enhancement – https://40yearsofzen.com Sponsors: - Timeline | Head to https://www.timeline.com/dave to get 10% off your first order. - LMNT | Free LMNT Sample Pack with any drink mix purchase by going to https://drinklmnt.com/dave.
