Explicit content warning
08/18/20 • 64 min
Dr. Daniel Amen is a 12x NY Times Bestselling Author, Psychiatrist, & Founder of Amen Clinics. Too often mental healthcare attempts to medicate as a solution to a problem they don’t seem to understand. Dr. Amen seeks to adjust that style of thinking by analyzing the brain the way we would approach any other physical ailment. Taking a biological approach to psychiatry, the doctor attempts to remove the stigma of “mental illness” and replace it with “brain health” in a way he believes can be treated, in many situations, without pharmaceutical interference. With a focus not only on the trauma and complications of adulthood but also on those from childhood that may even lend to patients’ current struggles, this episode delivers a dose of education and scientific study to the everyday brain health issues that plague so many of us. Whether you’re caught up inside depressed through quarantine, or forced to work in the middle of a pandemic spiking your anxiety, maybe you’ll find some relief in what the doctor has to say.

Episode 76: Dr. Paul Saladino – Bestselling Author of The Carnivore Code, Board-Certified Physician Nutrition Specialist
Dr. Paul Saladino is the Bestselling Author of The Carnivore Code and a Board-Certified Physician Nutrition Specialist. After over a decade of experimenting with different diets, Dr. Saladino has stumbled into an animal-product-only diet for the past couple of years. Working against everything we assume to know about health and food Saladino challenges our minds and our stomachs consuming the meat you’d expect and, perhaps, the organs you wouldn’t: steak, liver, pancreas, and any other part of an animal you can think of assuring the importance of nutrition in animals “from nose-to-tail.” Curious about a “carnivorous diet?” Wondering why you’re “eating healthy” and not seeing results? Stomach issues that seem unsolvable? Take a listen... maybe on an empty stomach, though. The man talks about eating testicles.
