In this episode, I chop it up with Brendan Ruh (aka Santa Cruz Medicinals) - one of the smartest and most interesting creators in the health & wellness space.

We talk about:

  • Medical Anthropology - How we can blend our knowledge of ancestral health with modern science/medicine
  • Seed Oils - Why they are problematic but should not be feared in moderation
  • Cholesterol - How cholesterol became the scapegoat for heart disease and how that has been debunked
  • Wild Fish - The pros and cons of including fish in your diet
  • Artificial/Natural Flavors - The truth behind these secretive food ingredients and how it limits healthy companies like Santa Cruz Medicinals
  • Grass-fed vs. Grain-fed Beef - The surprising primary reason why Brendan eats grass-fed beef
  • Artificial Sweeteners - Why to avoid these, even when there is research pointing towards "safety"
