2 Listeners

On this week’s podcast, Paul sits down with former football player, retired American professional mixed martial artist, former Director of Human Optimization at Onnit and host of The Kyle Kingsbury Podcast, Kyle Kingsbury. They do a a deep dive into ideals that Paul is passionate about, and Kyle interviews Paul about the truth behind seed oils, cholesterol, weight loss, and more controversial topics.

A note from Paul: Throughout my training and practice as a physician I have come to one very disappointing conclusion: Western medicine isn’t helping people lead better lives. Now that I’ve realized this, I’ve become obsessed with understanding what makes us healthy or ill. I want to live the best life I can and I want to be able to share this knowledge with others so that they can do the same. This podcast is the result of my relentless search to understand the roots of chronic disease. If you want to know how to live the most radical life possible I hope you’ll join me on this journey.
