Link to More Bread Recipes Here: https://drbrg.co/3T7xZbd Try this healthy Keto-Friendly Einkorn Bread recipe! ‌Ingredients •1/2 cup Einkorn flour •1 cup almond flour •1/4 cup coconut flour •1/4 cup ground flaxseed •2 teaspoons baking powder •1/2 teaspoon salt •1/4 teaspoon xanthan gum •1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk •4 large eggs •1/4 cup melted butter •1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar •1 teaspoon stevia or erythritol (optional, for a sweeter taste) •1/2 cup shredded cheese (optional, for a more savory flavor) Instructions 1. Preheat oven to 350°F and grease or line a 9x5-inch loaf pan with parchment. 2. Combine dry ingredients (Einkorn, almond, and coconut flours, flaxseed, baking powder, salt, and xanthan gum). Mix until thoroughly combined. 3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients (eggs, melted butter, almond milk, apple cider vinegar, and sweetener). Ensure the wet ingredients are well blended. 4. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients. Stir gently until the mixture forms a thick batter. Be careful not to overmix. 5. Fold in optional ingredients such as shredded cheese, herbs, or spices. 6. Transfer the batter to the loaf pan and smooth the top with an offset spatula to ensure the mixture is evenly distributed. 7. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until the bread is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. If the top is browning too quickly, cover it loosely with aluminum foil. 8. Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely. 9. Once the bread has cooled, slice it with a sharp bread knife. Serve it plain, toasted, or with your favorite keto-friendly toppings like avocado, butter, or cheese. Einkorn is an ancient grain that has not been altered in a long time. Einkorn bread doesn't have quite the same texture or mouthfeel as bread that's high in gluten, but it's close, and very few people have gut reactions to it. Modern grains are very high in phytic acid—a compound that binds with minerals such as zinc, iron, magnesium, manganese, calcium, and copper. Phytic acid is not absorbed in the small intestine, so you won't be able to absorb the minerals it binds with. Some cultures that consume high amounts of bread have zinc and iron deficiencies because of the phytic acid. In the U.S., bread sometimes contains BVO or potassium bromate, ingredients banned in Europe. Wheat in the U.S. is often dried out with glyphosate, the chemical found in Roundup. Toasting bread creates acrylamide, which may lead to cancer.

Phytic acid has gained a controversial reputation in recent years, with various health enthusiasts and dietary gurus and unqualified health coaches labelling it as an "anti-nutrient" to be avoided. This has led to misguided advice to steer clear of legumes, nuts, and seeds, which are staples in many healthy diets and are crucial for gut health. In this mini episode, Sandra debunks the top 3 fear-mongering messages that you've probably come across and talks about why you should not be fearful of phytic acid. This episode covers:The 3 fear mongering messages you should ignoreThe benefits of phytic acid especially when it comes to gut healthWho should pay more attention to phytic acid and when does it matter?Smart approaches to reduce phytic acidMeal combinations to balance phytic acid contentStop listening to unqualified quacks with online degrees and zero nutritional training!

Do you suffer from recurrent kidney stones or have unexplained mineral deficiencies?  Phytates & Oxalates are in many of our plant foods and can bind to minerals, thus contributing to mineral deficiencies.  However, it is worth understanding what they are, and when and if you need to be wary of them, rather than fearfully avoiding them altogether. These plants have amazing health benefits and actually phytates have some pretty important positives too.  Listen in to this short episode to find out more. The store cupboard staple is a nut which is nutrient dense and contains BOTH phytates and oxalates!!  I mentioned Healthtea in the episode and this is the link to Iron Brew https://healthtea.ie/product/iron-brew/   Music composed by cascreativearts, copyright Lyn Sharkey Nutrition.

In this podcast, we're going to take a look at how nutritional deficiencies can stunt growth. Most stunted growth is related to malnutrition. For example, a zinc deficiency can cause you to be shorter. Issues with the pituitary gland can stunt growth because the pituitary gland controls the release of growth hormone. In children, growth hormone helps bones and muscles grow and affects height. In adults, growth hormone preserves protein in your body, aids in weight loss, and has anti-aging properties. Amino acids stimulate human growth hormone. If you're not consuming enough protein, growth hormone can be diminished. High blood glucose, a high-sugar diet, insulin resistance, and lack of sleep can negatively affect human growth hormone. The liver makes a hormone known as insulin-like growth factor-1(IGF-1). If you're deficient in this hormone, you may end up on the shorter side. IGF-1 is also triggered by amino acids and zinc. If you're not consuming enough red meat, fish, and shellfish, you could end up with a zinc deficiency. There is not a lot of zinc in plant foods! The Republic of the Congo has the highest rate of zinc deficiency. In the Republic of the Congo, the diet is primarily composed of rice, grains, corn, and cereals, which are high in phytic acid. Phytic acid blocks zinc which can create a massive zinc deficiency and affect your immune system. Stress, sugar, and insulin resistance can also cause a zinc deficiency. Vitamin D is very important for growth, but many people are deficient. Children don't go outside as much, and they consume large amounts of junk foods, which inhibits vitamin D. Inflammation in the gut also blocks its absorption. DATA: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/arti... https://www.ars.usda.gov/news-events/... https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/arti...

SUBSCRIBE TO MY NEWSLETTER HERE: https://bit.ly/4aI2z2g Let's talk about what would happen if you added cereal to your breakfast every morning. Years of consuming cereal can have serious impacts on your health. Cereal contains hidden sugar, starch, and carbohydrates. Certain starches and carbohydrates can affect your blood sugar levels even more than sugar can. Many people think cereal is healthy because it contains whole grains. However, sugar, combined with protein in whole grains, can lead to a myriad of health concerns. Whole grains also contain gluten, and many people have either an allergy or intolerance to it. Phytic acid in whole grains blocks mineral absorption. The synthetic vitamins in cereal are also completely different from vitamins in nature. Not to mention that the sugar in the cereal will nullify the effects of the synthetic vitamins. Many types of cereal contain ingredients that are GMO, as well as artificial colorings and preservatives. Cereal is ultra-processed junk food. Here are the top issues that can arise if you consume cereal for breakfast every day for just a month: • Prediabetes • Exhaustion • Morning grogginess • Irritability • Depression • Anxiety • Arthritis • Brain fog • Weight gain • Fatty liver

Are you confused about which foods are actually good for you? Whether you're a plant-centric omnivore or a vegetarian, this episode will provide valuable insights into how certain food compounds affect our bodies and how to navigate their consumption.   As your host and a researcher, I am committed to providing you with valuable insights and knowledge that can empower you to live your best life during this transformative season of menopause. In this episode, we explore the truth behind goitrogens, phytic acid, and lectins - three compounds that have stirred up mixed reviews online.   You see, there's a lot of confusion surrounding these compounds, and it's my mission to shed some light on the subject. We'll explore their potential dangers and benefits, and I'll share my expert insights as a highly qualified Functional Medicine Practitioner. By the end of the episode, you'll have a clearer understanding of how these compounds can impact your health, particularly in relation to liver function and detoxification.   But that's not all! Throughout the episode, I'll also provide practical tips on how to integrate this knowledge into your daily life, making it easier for you to navigate your menopausal journey with confidence and vitality.   So, are you ready to uncover the truth about these food compounds? Tune in to Menopause Mastery and join me on this enlightening conversation.     Key Takeaways: [00:01:29] Goitrogens and confusion surrounding them. [00:03:39] Goitrogens and thyroid function. [00:07:55] Liver detoxification and glucosinolates. [00:11:09] Detoxification and nutrient wrappers. [00:14:30] The importance of iodine. [00:18:03] Phytic acid and plant defense. [00:23:07] Lectins and immune responses. [00:24:23] Leaky gut and autoimmune diseases. [00:27:06] Balance and variety in diet. [00:28:40] Healthy plate proportions.     Memorable Quotes "Goitrogen compounds are sensitive to heat, and they break down during cooking. This reduces their ability to interfere with thyroid function. So specifically boiling, steaming, or cooking vegetables reduces that effect. " – Betty Murray   "Iron is probably the most common because a vegetarian diet does not contain very much bioavailable iron. And so even though a food like spinach may have iron in it, it's not very well mobilized and utilized by the human body. And anemia is real as a concern, particularly in vegans, because iron is not well absorbed and not represented well in the vegan diet." – Betty Murray     Website Living Well Dallas Hormone Reset Betty Murray   Socials  Facebook Instagram

To kick off this new season of Reset, Renew Revive, we welcome Dave Asprey, the father of biohacking to teach you how to embrace laziness for the best health of your life! Dave invented biohacking because he struggled to lose weight and lacked energy and the cognitive function to feel good in his own body. Since then, he went from 300 pounds to 8% body fat with just a fraction of the effort traditional methods encourage.  The automated systems of your body are just that, automatic and out of your control. The subconscious is primarily concerned with survival which is why you crave food and rest because these are your survival instincts. By embracing that inherent laziness born from energy conservation, you can revolutionize your health with just a 5 minute workout 3 times a week! To support your body even further, nutrition plays a key role in enhancing the effectiveness of your efforts. Don't be fooled by impressive marketing schemes that are tricking people into eating foods that don't have the nutrients and minerals your body needs for prime optimization! In this episode, Dave breaks down what foods to avoid and what supplements to add to your diet that will enhance your energy, manage your weight and give you the best health of your life!   KEY TAKEAWAYS [2:20] How Dave invented biohacking to heal himself and shed 300 pounds [5:30] Calories in calories out, is not a sustainable way to lose weight if it works at all [8:00] The automated systems of your body are operated by a separate consciousness [11:50] Get motivated by acknowledging that your body is lazy and it's a sacred part of humanity [16:45] Prolonged vigorous workout convince your body that it needs to be in survival mode [18:40] A five minute workout, 3 times a week increases your cardiovascular performance 12% [22:00] The results you think are coming from exercise is actually from amazing recovery  [26:00] You can't digest Phytic acid in oats so the body takes minerals from your bones  [27:00] Why you need to be taking minerals and natural Vitamin D,A,K and E [28:50] Chicken meat is inflammatory and doesn't have the fat you need for a fast metabolism  [34:00] People want to help you, you don't need to do everything by yourself    HOW TO CONNECT WITH OUR GUEST DaveAsprey.com Sleep Guide OwnanUpgradeLabs.com Smart not Harder: The Biohacker's Guide to Getting the Body and Mind You Want   MEMORABLE QUOTES “What's happening in that one third of a second?! Well, someone is in charge and even worse; why can't you see that one third of a second? Who erased it from your consciousness? That's the guy we're hacking because it's not you. It can't be you because your brain wasn't active  when that happened.”   [8:30] - Dave Asprey “There are specific signals that drive a change in your body and the signal is not how hard you worked. The signal is how quickly you worked hard and very importantly, how quickly you calmed down after you worked hard.”  [16:50] - Dave Asprey “Minerals are big but if you take minerals they won't go where they're supposed to go and they won't stay there unless you have Vitamin DAKE that's, D, A, K and E and these are fat soluble vitamins only found in animals, So plant based Vitamin A is not actually vitamin A, it's a marketing scheme.” [27:39] -Dave Asprey   To learn more about me and to stay connected, click on the links below: Instagram: @drbindiyamd Website: drbindiyamd.com

In this week's video, I'm talking about phytic acid. If you have been around the paleo community or keto community for the last 20 years, you have probably been schooled on the horror of consuming phytic acid-rich foods. What is phytic acid anyways? Phytic acid is essentially the storage form of phosphorus in the plant. Phytic acid is found in abundance in grains, seeds, legumes, and nuts. I would also recommend sprouting, soaking, fermenting, or cooking your grains, nuts, seeds, potatoes, beans to increase their digestibility but I wouldn't stress about completely clearing phytic acid from your meal. Sprouting alone has shown to increase bioavailability of minerals in many grains from 40-98% depending on the grain. When might you want to pay special attention to the amount of phytic acid you're consuming? If you're a vegan or vegetarian If you're eating a lot of soy products If you're anemic If you're getting sick all of the time If you're not getting enough zinc So, if you are concerned about iron, calcium or zinc you could always eat foods or supplements at another time during the day and in so doing bypass the phytic acid issue.   ___ Want to know what some of the food staples are for me and my family?

If you missed episode 22 : Misleading Diet Fads, I'd recommend checking that episode out first! This is a continuation following up on the information I shared in that episode, and further investigating the mechanisms of the diets and foods I spoke about. In this episode, I mainly discuss the misleading information about vegan diets and "Detox cleanses," both of which are heavily promoted in today's diet cultures, and both of which carry potential dangers and false claims. I wanted to use the best medical sources I could find to present this information, and investigate things like polyphenols (source of antioxidants), Phytic acid, oxalates, and more.Support the show

Phytic acid is often referred to as an "anti-nutrient" because it can block the absorption of minerals from foods. But phytic acid also has many positive effects on health.

In this podcast, I explain what phytic acid is along with its significant health benefits. Another name for phytic acid is IP6 or vitamin B8. It forms a storage system for phosphorus in plants, bran, seeds, nuts, and grains. You've probably heard that fiber is good for you; well, it's the IP6 that is the part of fiber which is good for you. Phytic acid binds with calcium, iron, and other minerals to regulate them and prevent them from building up to toxic levels in your body. It's a strong anti-cancer compound and the most potent antioxidant on the planet. Here's what makes phytic acid such a strong anti-cancer compound. With cancer, one of the first things that happen is the destruction of your mitochondria. Iron and copper combine with oxygen to produce severe oxidation in your body, destroying the wall of the mitochondria. But phytic acid makes iron and copper unreactive; in other words, they don't create oxidation. Avoid taking vitamin C with phytic acid, because it will reduce its effects. As well, don't take phytic acid if you're anemic or low in iron. Sadly, though, most people have too much iron and calcium. Phytic acid is an excellent way to counter and neutralize the oxidative effect of metals in your body.

In this podcast, Dr. Berg talks about phytase anti-nutrient myths. Phytic acid is a very powerful antioxidant. Consuming food that has too much phytic acid will block the absorption the zinc, iron, and other minerals. 1. Microbes make phytase – the enzyme that breaks down phytic acid. 2. Vitamin C increase the absorption of iron 3. Beta carotene increase absorption of iron 4. Adding meat increase the absorption of iron 5. Cooking/Steaming decrease phytic acid 6. Fermenting vegetables decrease phytic acid 7. Most people have too much iron Adding meat to vegetables/nuts/seeds can increase the absorption of iron Betacarotene from vegetables can increase the absorption of iron Vit. C and certain amino acids reduce phytic acid and increase iron absorption Phytic Acid (IP6) Body Makes Phytic Acid Enzymes Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio: Dr. Berg, 51 years of age is a chiropractor who specializes in weight loss through nutritional & natural methods.

I wanted to create a short video about Brazil nuts and selenium. Are Brazil nuts a good source of selenium? Benefits of selenium: • Selenium is great for people with Hashimoto's • Selenium acts as an antioxidant • Selenium helps you convert thyroid hormone T4 to the active form T3 Are Brazil nuts good? Well, the problem with Brazil nuts is that they have high amounts of phytic acid. Phytic acid binds minerals and blocks: • Selenium • Zinc • Iron • Magnesium • Calcium • Chromium • Manganese • Copper How to consume Brazil nuts: • If you want to consume Brazil nuts, you have to soak them in water overnight before eating them. This will help get rid of the phytic acid. • You could also consume roasted Brazil nuts. But, the problem with roasting the nuts is that heat destroys some heat-sensitive vitamins and beneficial oils.

Selenium is a trace mineral that has extremely powerful antioxidant properties. It's a co-factor enzyme, which means it's involved in a lot of different enzymes as a helper mineral. Its main job as an antioxidant is to help protect against oxidative damage. Selenium may be beneficial for chronic health problems and conditions where there is inflammation. Selenium benefits: 1. Helps make glutathione 2. Oxidative stress reduction 3. Required for the conversion of T4-T3 4. Reduced complications of certain diseases 5. Anticancer 6. Antitumor 7. It may be beneficial for those with alcohol-related liver disease 8. It may be beneficial for those with arsenic poisoning 9. It may be beneficial for those with autoimmune conditions 10. It may be beneficial for those with BPH 11. It may be beneficial for those with diabetes 12. It may help detox mercury The RDAs for selenium are 55mcg. But, the therapeutic dosage you may want to consider taking if you have any of the above conditions would be 200mcg. Selenium can have toxic effects if you take too much. Selenomethionine may be the most beneficial to take. Brazil nuts are one of the most selenium-rich foods. But, they are also very high in phytic acid. Phytic acid actually blocks selenium. If you want to consume Brazil nuts, be sure to soak them overnight and dry them out first to get rid of the phytic acid.

Today I’m going over the Weston A Price Diet Basics. They champion raw milk and have a lot of great information on their website. I’ll put a link in the show notes to their website. Before I launch in to today’s info, I want to take a minute to say welcome to all the new listeners and welcome back to you veteran homestead-loving regulars who stop by the FarmCast every week. I appreciate you all so much. I’m so excited to share with you what’s going on at the farm this week. Today’s Show Homestead Life Updates Weston A Price Diet Basics Bone Broth Recipe Homestead Life Updates I feel almost normal again. There was one small incident earlier this week. We are missing one small buck and I thought he might be in with the girls so I walked much farther out into the pasture than normal to round up the goats. It’s pretty easy to do but required a bit more energy that I anticipated. I walked slowly and carefully. Keeping good balance is still an issue. I’m very careful when walking around out there. So many things can trip you up if you are not paying close attention. Then, oops, trip and down you go. Fortunately, I did not have that experience. No, I just walked slowly and carefully. Unfortunately, I walked a lot farther than I had in quite a while. It seemed like it would be easy. After all, I often easily walked two or three times as far as I did on this morning prior to my bout of appendicitis. Well, turns out it wasn’t that easy. I continue to be surprised by how weak my body became with this illness. Oh well, I just went inside, cooled off, rested . . . and then made some cheese. The Garden and Orchard Both are showing the effects of a lack of rain this summer. Oh, and the steers ate the tops of my celery, sweet potatoes and the Swiss chard. Bummer, I was going to take the celery to the farmer’s market per the request of my customers. The sweet potatoes will likely be fine. In fact, the tubers may grow even larger as they are the propagation mechanism for the plant. Whenever a plant’s life is threatened, it begins to put a lot of energy into reproduction. For instance, when it gets to hot for lettuce and spinach in late spring, the plants will send up stalks of seeds. This is referred to as “bolting”. We say the lettuce or spinach “bolted”. Sometimes even the smallest amount of stress can cause lettuce and spinach to bolt. It starts putting out as many seeds as possible to preserve itself. Scott did take a day out of this creamery-building schedule to water the few remaining veggies in the garden and the entire orchard. He also did a bit of summer pruning of the trees. And then it was back to laying blocks in the creamery. The Creamery It is so exciting to see those walls growing out of the ground. The building is really taking shape. Scott is so dedicated to using every possible minute to get the project completed. His attention to detail is also inspiring. The seams between the blocks are perfectly aligned. Visit our Facebook page to see images of all his hard work. The Animals We started the culling process with the goats. I talked about our plan in the podcast just prior to this one. In the end, we will have no sheep and the cashmere goats will be replaced with Kiko goats. We took the three breeding bucks to the meat processor. They will make lots of ground chev. Look for a good deal on soup bones. We will have lots of them. All three of them had impressive racks of horns. Roanoke’s were more than 4’ feet from tip to tip. We asked and were granted permission to keep the heads with the horns attached. They are currently curing and will eventually decorate our walls – probably in the small store area of the creamery. The Quail We have begun collecting eggs for the next batch of quail. It started slow. Only two so far. The quail cages got moved. Their manure smell is quite pungent and their cages were far too close to the carport and back door. The odor seemed to accumulate under the carport and came wafting to the back door. Each time the quail are disturbed, they stop laying eggs for a few days. When Scott was building the cages, he had to remove the layers from their cages while he assembled the additional cage above their space. They stopped for a day or so and then slowly returned to their original laying pattern. So when Scott moved their cage to a new and quite lovely shady spot, their laying dropped to almost nothing. He brought in two eggs this morning. Normally, we get six to eight. Also, the days are getting shorter and the birds will naturally lay fewer eggs. They need light to lay every day. We can supply artificial light and we may do that. Who knows? That’s another project though. Best keep on with the creamery. Weston Price Diet Basics Today I want to talk about a traditional diet as presented by the Weston A Price Foundation. (WAPF). There are lots and lots of ideas and opinions about nutrition out there. The science cannot seem to agree. And it makes sense. No two people are alike. Some people live on the equator with ancestral and genetic ties to an abundance of fruits. Some people live in areas where meat and fat are their only choices. I recommend doing your own research and making your choices based on the needs belonging uniquely to you and your family. Today, specifically, I’ll be outlining the recommendations detailed by the Weston A Price Foundation. First, some basics on the man and the organization. Who is Weston Price? Weston Andrew Valleau Price (September 6, 1870 – January 23, 1948) was a Canadian dentist known primarily for his theories on the relationship between nutrition, dental health, and physical health. He founded the research institute National Dental Association, which became the research section of the American Dental Association, and was the NDA's chairman from 1914 to 1928. Price initially did dental research on the relationship between endodontic therapy and pulpless teeth and broader systemic disease, known as focal infection theory, a theory which resulted in many extractions of tonsils and teeth. Focal infection theory fell out of favor in the 1930s and was pushed to the margins of dentistry by the 1950s. By 1930, Price had shifted his interest to nutrition. In 1939, he published Nutrition and Physical Degeneration, detailing his global travels studying the diets and nutrition of various cultures. The book concludes that aspects of a modern Western diet (particularly flour, sugar, and modern processed vegetable fats) cause nutritional deficiencies that are a cause of many dental issues and health problems. The dental issues he observed include the proper development of the facial structure (to avoid overcrowding of the teeth) in addition to dental caries. This work received mixed reviews, and continues to be cited today by proponents of many different theories, including controversial dental and nutritional theories. The Weston A Price Foundation The Weston A. Price Foundation (WAPF) was co-founded in 1999 by Sally Fallon Morell and nutritionist Mary G. Enig. It is a non-profit organization dedicated to "restoring nutrient-dense foods to the American diet through education, research and activism." The foundation has been criticized by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for its advocacy of drinking raw milk and by various nutritionists for its advocacy of the health benefits of animal-based fats. The President of the foundation is Sally Fallon Morell. The foundation has seven board members and numerous honorary board members, most of whom have medical or nutritional qualifications.  Its main sources of support are the dues and contributions of its members. It does not receive funding from the government or the food processing and agribusiness industries. It does accept sponsorships, exhibitors and advertising from small companies by invitation, whose products are in line with its principles. The sponsors include grass-fed meat and wild fish producers, as well as health product companies. A 2004 report published by the foundation stated that it is dedicated to "restoring nutrient-dense foods to the American diet through education, research and activism", and "supports a number of movements that contribute to this objective including accurate nutrition instruction, organic and biodynamic farming, pasture feeding of livestock, community-supported farms, honest and informative labeling, prepared parenting and nurturing therapies." Specific goals include establishment of universal access to certified raw milk and a ban on the use of soy in infant formulas. The organization actively lobbies in Washington DC on issues such as government dietary guidelines definition and composition of school lunch programs. The WAPF publishes a quarterly journal called Wise Traditions in Food, Farming, and the Healing Arts, and an annual shopping guide which lists products made from organic, non-GMO ingredients and prepared using traditional and artisan methods. WAPF Diet Basics The diets of healthy primitive and non-industrialized peoples contain no refined or denatured foods such as refined sugar or corn syrup; white flour; canned foods; pasteurized, homogenized, skim or low-fat milk; refined or hydrogenated vegetable oils; protein powders; artificial vitamins or toxic additives and colorings. I do want to point out that primitive cultures have health difficulties that our modern systems have overcome. Access to food and health care in the first world is amazing. Death in childbirth and early childhood death from things like pneumonia are still issues for the primitive tribes. Diet won’t fix that. Appendicitis like I had would have been a death sentence for these people without modern medicine. We truck food from one side of the country to the other. Importing and exporting food from and to all parts of the world is now commonplace. We do not have problems with access to food. Our problems might be characterized more as excess of food. All traditional cultures consume some sort of animal protein and fat from fish and other seafood; water and land fowl; land animals; eggs; milk and milk products; reptiles; and insects. In every traditional culture, some of the animal products are eaten raw. Their location on the planet determines their diet. And as I mentioned earlier, some have access to an abundance of fresh fruit. For some fruit would be a year-round staple and for other it would be seasonal. Because of the focus on the foods I just mentioned, primitive diets contain at least four times the calcium and other minerals and TEN times the fat soluble vitamins from animal fats (vitamin A, vitamin D and vitamin K2) as the average American diet. There is an interesting connection between raw foods and the enzymes needed to digest them. Primitive and traditional diets have a high food-enzyme content from raw dairy products, raw meat and fish; raw honey; tropical fruits; cold-pressed oils; wine and unpasteurized beer; and naturally preserved, lacto-fermented vegetables, fruits, beverages, meats and condiments. Lacto-fermenting is an art form I’ll address for you in a later podcast. Seeds, grains and nuts are soaked, sprouted, fermented or naturally leavened in order to neutralize their naturally occurring antinutrients. Phytic acid, enzyme inhibitors, tannins and complex carbohydrates are examples of antinutrients. Most of today’s nutritionists insist that low fat is the way to go. But that’s not how we were able to survive to experience this modern era. The total fat content of traditional diets varies from 30% to 80%. Of total calories consumed, only about 4% come from polyunsaturated oils. That 4% comes from the naturally occurring oils in grains, pulses, nuts, fish, animal fats and vegetables. The balance of fat calories is in the form of saturated and monounsaturated fatty acids. Traditional diets contain nearly equal amounts of omega-6 and omega-3 essential fatty acids. There is a lot of heady information out there about what food has what fat and in what ratio? Is there a balance of equal parts omega-6 and omega-3? Again, in traditional diets where animals are raised in harmony with nature and gardens are made fertile with naturally occurring compost, the balance of this fat and that fat is irrelevant. When using traditional methods of farming, the animals are healthy and the nutrition in food is naturally in balance. If it is not, something needs to change in the farming method. This is the essence of being sustainable.  All primitive diets contain some salt. Another vilified nutrient by today’s standards. Traditional cultures consume animal bones, usually in the form of gelatin-rich bone broths. Bone broth is quite popular today in the keto and carnivore diet worlds. That sums up the basics of the WAPF diet basics. Go to their website and signup for their 7-part Wise Traditions Diet to get all the information on eating a traditional diet. What to eat as well as proper preparation passed down through centuries of experience.  Bone Broth Bone broth is made with bones that have bits of meat still clinging unlike “stock”. It is also generally thinner than “stock”. Most people use the terms interchangeably. It has been made for centuries. Roasted bones will add flavor to the broth and will darken the color. This recipe that fresh herbs for an added bit of flavor. What You Need 1 pound lamb bones or other bone of our choice 1 tablespoon cooking oil 1 large onion, diced 3 medium carrots, chunked 3 stalks celery, chopped 3 sprigs fresh rosemary  5 sprigs fresh thyme  3 gallons water, more as needed Salt, optional What To Do Preheat oven to 400 F. Place bones in roasting pan. Cook for 30-40 minutes or until browned. In a large stock pot placed over medium heat, add cooking oil. Add onion, carrot, celery, garlic, and herbs. Saute for 5 minutes. Add bones including fat and juices from the roasting pan. Add enough water to cover the bones and bring it to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low. Simmer for 8 hours (or up to 24 hours) uncovered. Add more water as needed to keep the bones covered. Strain the broth through a fine mesh strainer lined with a tea towel. Enjoy hot or store in the refrigerator for up to a week. Notes If you made a larger amount, freeze the remaining broth in container sizes that fit your everyday needs or pressure can for longer term storage. Hop over to the website to find and print this recipe. There is a link in the show notes.

So much conflicting information if grains are good or bad? Should we be eating them? How often? Should some people avoid them?In this weeks episode, we talk about the common misconceptions about grains such as anti-nutrients (phytic acid, lectins, and gluten), inflammation, excessive weight gain.Research for the following episode:General information on Phytic acid: https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/neuroscience/phytic-acid Kidney stones and phytic acid: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1586208/Phytic acid bad food choice: https://badgut.org/information-centre/health-nutrition/4-myths-food-nutrition/ Phytic acid an antioxidant: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3040709 Phytate and kidney stone treatment: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10625946Phytic acid and colorectal cancer: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3876062/In Vitro vs. In Vivo studies https://mpkb.org/home/patients/assessing_literature/in_vitro_studiesLectins general information : https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/319593.phphttps://www.drfuhrman.com/get-started/eat-to-live-blog/147/the-real-story-on-lectinsAnti-nutrients: https://www.parsleyhealth.com/blog/antinutrients-lectins-phytates-gluten/https://www.hsph.harvard.edu/nutritionsource/anti-nutrients/lectins/Lectins and inflammation: https://scilifebiosciences.com/blog/do-lectins-cause-chronic-inflammation-heres-what-the-science-says-about-these-naturally-occurring-proteins

In the coming weeks, we are going to be discussing common health claims to see if they are worth our time and money. Often we hear things such as grains cause inflammation, Honey is a better sugar, Phytic acid steals our bodies of nutrients, and raw is better than cooked. But before we dive into the truth on those topics we need to first discuss our eating habits, we can have the best nutritional information but if we continue eating like assholes nothing will matter. We all want to be healthier yet we continuously self sabotage ourselves by eating like we are going on an episode of Survivor. In this episode, we talk about 3 main reasons we continue this cycle and how 2 simple tips can improve our eating habits

We’re back for the conclusion of this mighty animal vs. plant food discussion. Paul is a beast on this science and I think it’s really interesting to think about this in a whole new way than most of the mainstream nutrition world has for the past 60 years. We’re a day late because I’ve been desperately trying to launch my Grass Fed meat company Nose to Tail which you can find at NosetoTail.org which we mention in this episode. I couldn't release this episode until the website was live. So guess what? We’re now selling grass finished American-grown beef raised in the heart of America in Northeast Texas as of right now. I’ve spent over a year figuring this out and searching for the right ranch to partner with. My guy is the real deal. We have grass fed, grass finished beef, buffalo and lamb, pasture raised Omega-3 pork, and omega-3 chicken. We specially formulate the diet of the pigs and chicken for an incredible Omega-6 to Omega-3 ratio is 1.5:1 to 1.7:1. This is huge. If you’ve been listening to the experts I’ve been interviewing we want our ratio right around this range. We sent the pork and chicken to a lab for analysis and you can see the full fatty acid profile results on my site Nose To Tail.org. To give some context this blows away even pastured poultry at an 8:1 ratio and free range poultry at an 18:1 ratio. Our pork tested at 1.5:1 and conventional pork is 20:1. I’m most excited about the primal mixes. We have beef, buffalo, and pork primal mixes with either 30% organ meat mixed in or 5%. We’re talking liver, heart, kidney, and spleen. You can get all the extra nutrients without dealing with the taste that is harsh for some. At the risk of going on too long, we also are offering tins of cod liver in their own oil, wild caught sardines, and bone meal. These things round out the ultimate nose to tail diet and are what I’ve been eating regularly in my diet. So many great things with these including huge amounts of omega-3s, huge amounts of vitamin A, calcium, magnesium, phosphorous, the list goes on. Just check out NosetoTail.org and check out all the boxes and products. I’m so excited about this I can’t believe it’s finally here. This is such a win-win-win-win-win. It’s good for your health, it’s supporting an amazing ranch, it’s helping regenerate the soil and the environment, the animals are raised well and are happy, and it even supports me so I can keep putting out this content and finish the Food Lies film, etc. Thanks so much and I know you’re going to enjoy it. Now onto the rest of the discussion with Paul. We cover everything else you can imagine from coffee, more plant toxins, longevity and anti-aging research, the Blue Zones myth, advanced glycation end products and heterocyclic amines in cooked meat, mTor, the balance of Methionine to Glycine (which is another reason to eat Nose to Tail and why not buy it from NosetoTail.org and get the best stuff around), Paul’s workouts, inflammation, APOe4, safest plant foods, and more. This is an episode where you really need the extended show notes Kristi has been doing that are available to Patreon supporters. You can go to http://Patreon.com/peakhuman and support the show there and get access to the very comprehensive show notes she put tons of time into from this week and last, plus from Dr. Thomas Seyfried and Dave Feldman. So now you have a whole bunch of ways to support the show and the film from $2 on Patreon, to preordering the film and getting your name in the credits on Indiegogo, all the way up to a giant $200 box of grass fed meat delivered to your door. I really appreciate your support and let’s jump in with Paul and hear why eating nose to tail is so great.

Energy bars and protein bars are popular with health-conscious consumers looking for a quick shot of energy as they prepare to jog, hike or work out, or even as a meal substitute. But they're kidding themselves.  Many products marketed as healthy snacks are candy in another name, loaded with sugar and other junk that should horrify anyone who cares about maintaining health.

In this podcast I'll be exploring Food Anti-Nutrients: I’ll explain what anti-nutrients are I’ll talk about how anti-nutrients affect your body and how they affect the absorption of other nutrients I’ll list foods that are thought to be extremely nutritious, but really are extremely anti-nutritious Finally, I’ll share how to best prepare foods to lower their anti-nutrient content CLICK HERE TO LEARN WHAT ARE THE BEST FOODS TO GET YOU LEAN Everyone knows what a nutrient is – a substance that nourishes the mind, body, and soul. But have you heard of anti-nutrients? Anti-nutrients are plant compounds that prevent you, the plant predator, from stealing or absorbing nutrients from the plant. Believe it or not plants and other living creatures were not put on this planet for the sole purpose of feeding the human race. Plants are sentient life forms, like you and me. They have their own life purpose with the dream of the continuation of their own species and since they don’t have legs to run away or claws to fight off predators they use chemicals to protect themselves. By using biological phytochemical warfare in the form of these anti-nutrients plants increase the chances of their own survival and the survival of their offspring. While at the same time causing a lot of health issues for their predators. So anti-nutrients are a plants innate defence mechanism. These anti-nutrients can negatively affect your health. Examples of anti-nutrients used by plants include: Lectins Saponins Gluten Phytic acid or phytates and Enzyme inhibitors Lectins have been shown to bind to insulin receptors on the walls of your cells. Insulin is the hormone responsible for putting nutrients into your cells and if you’ve had a carb rich meal high in lectins then all that sugar that’s now flowing in your bloodstream cannot be absorbed into your cells because lectin is blocking insulin from attaching to the cell. When sugar is blocked from getting into your cells it’s left to roam in your bloodstream and when it lingers there for far too long this causes damage and inflammation to your cells. Think of your arteries, think of your brain neurons, think of any part of your body where sugar attaches itself to the cells, it becomes glycated, glued to the cell and it causes malfunction and damage. We’ve all heard of diabetes and this is what happens when sugar is left to linger in your bloodstream. Gluten, saponins and lectins can also cause irritation to your gut, to your intestines. Remember your gut is where most of your nutrient absorption takes place, but if your gut is stressed, inflamed, or compromised then you don’t absorb as much nutrition as you should. Your gut wall is like a net, like a mosquito net where it keeps the pesky bugs out, while letting the proper nutrients in. The problem is lectins, saponins and gluten they’re like mosquitos with little katana blades that cut through the net creating tiny little holes that allow them and other molecules such as undigested food particles and disease causing microorganisms, pathogens, to get into your body. When you get undigested and unprocessed food particles, pathogens, and other foreign materials in your bloodstream your body mounts an immune response and this leads to inflammation and stress. Now if this stress is chronic and goes on for a long time, if your body has to fight off these pathogens and foreign material that shouldn’t be there day after day because your gut has become leaky this is how you get really sick and get diagnosed with autoimmune conditions like rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, Hashimoto’s, psoriasis, diabetes, and coeliac disease, just to name a few. When it comes to phytic acid this will bind to minerals meaning that if a food is high in say zinc like pumpkin seeds, but that food is also high in phytic acid then when you eat pumpkin seeds for example you only ...

Preparing nuts and seeds properly!  Nuts and seeds have many beneficial properties but they also have a toxic seed coating that should be removed. Before we can realize the health benefits of nuts and seeds, we first have to understand properly preparing nuts and seeds. Phytic acid is a protective seed coating that prevents seeds...
