Hello. We're back. I'm Brian Sanders and I'm excited to share another great episode with you lovely people. Dr. Ken Berry is the author of the great book "Lies My Doctor Told Me," he's a speaker, he's got an awesome and very popular YouTube channel, and he's a great doctor who realized he was doing everything wrong and had the humbleness to admit this was so and reverse course. His own health was...

Hello there Sapien Tribe! That's right, we're a tribe now. This is very fitting to me and we have a lot of great people leading the way. I'm going to make pages for each of them on http://Sapien.org I'm talking about people like Professor Bill Schindler who's hosting an online video series with a bunch of great people. Somehow I slipped in there and am kicking it off with one of the OGs Robb Wolf...

Welcome back ladies and gentlemen, boy and girls. Season 5 is here. I took a short break to collect some more interviews and put out a few episodes of the new SAPIEN podcast. You can check that out on youtube or any podcast app. It's a more casual and conversational show we shoot on video and audio with Dr. Gary in our medical clinic Evolve Healthcare in Los Angeles. We've started to take on more...

Hello, hello healthy people. Have you been eating a sapien diet recently? Are you feeling better than ever? Or is it just me? Many people are probably doing it without even realizing it. It's basically just a high animal food, high fat, low carb, low antinutrient diet with a condensed eating window. We talk a lot about why this way of eating is so beneficial and so misunderstood today with the leg...

Hey everyone out there in podcast land, we're back for another great episode. I had the pleasure of speaking with Dr. Anthony Jay this week. He's probably best known for his book Estrogeneration where he explores how all the nasty xenoestrogens creep into our body through plastics, food like soy, personal care products, sunscreen, the water, etc. This is important stuff because you may think it do...

Alright everyone, we're back, Brian Sanders here with another episode of Peak Human where I talk to the leading experts around the world about health, nutrition, exercise, and how to live a long and healthy life. I'm a bit behind this week due to the holiday and filming a couple more awesome interviews for the Food Lies documentary. Every time I think we're done, I get a new opportunity to talk to...

Hey hey, what's going on healthy friends? Is everyone eating densely and moving intensely? People have been saying I should make shirts or stickers for that phrase. Anyone want to help design that? I want it to look really cool. Also for new people, or anyone really, I should quickly spell out what eating densely and moving intensely is. A nutrient dense diet with a full array of bioavailable nutr...

Alright, we're back! We got Dr. Zsofia Clemens from Paleomedicina in Hungary. They're doing groundbreaking stuff over there curing all types of diseases mainstream medicine believes are incurable. And you know what - they use zero medications. Their whole thing is removing patient's medications one by one. They've published a bunch of studies you can link to from their site. Dr. Zsofia is a neurob...

We got Vinnie Tortorich in the house for some not nutrition talk, his film FAT, my film Food Lies, and the crazy world that is our little health space we occupy. We actually almost made Food Lies together before we realized it would be better to each make out own film.  Happy listening! Find Vinnie at http://vinnietortorich.com And on Twitter at https://twitter.com/VinnieTortorich   BUY THE MEAT ...

Live, from the arctic circle, please welcome Fredrik Prost. This is such an interesting episode. One day I'm watching epic nature shows from NatGeo about a group of people subsisting in the freezing arctic tundra on nothing but reindeer and fish, the next day I'm talking to one of them. He originally contacted me to politely correct me on something I mentioned in a post on Instagram that I read in...

Are you guys ready for this? This episode is 7 months in the making and has a ton of interesting takeaways. We have ex-679 pound Jeff, a fruitarian college wrestler, and a woman who no joke looks like a completely different person. First, I want to talk about how I make all this content possible - support from people like you. I appreciate it so much and it's the only way I can do this. I'm living...

And we're back from Canada with amazing footage in hand. The film tour was a huge success. I posted a bunch of stuff from Tara's farm on Instagram that you have to check out I'm @food.lies and she is @slowdownfarmstead. It was the best food I've ever had in my life. All the animals and plants were grown from start to finish on her land, killed and butchered by her and her husband Troy, and cooked...

Ohhh man we have a special one today, everyone. I didn't want to release this as a podcast but hey, why not? I had some of the superheroes of meat eating in one film studio, so I had to take advantage of this opportunity to let everyone hear the audio version. You'll see this on the big screen - in Food Lies and maybe even other places someday. We shot it in our production studio which belongs to...

Hey Hey welcome back. Thanks for listening and thanks for all the kind words about this podcast. I get tons of messages and emails weekly and the stories of change are inspiring. It helps to keep me going and put in the work to find amazing experts and put out a good show. Today we have Alyse Parker who used to go by Raw Alignment. She had a huge vegan following of over 750,000 subscribers on yout...

Alright we have a special episode today. We're lucky to hear all about Miki's new paper looking at the complete story of our dietary past and humans being high-trophic level carnivores. He gave me a sneak peak at this awesome 40 page paper he's submitting for review. Miki Ben-Dor got an undergraduate and masters degree in economics and then went back to school later in life to study paleoanthropol...

Aaand we're back! Season 4 is coming in hot with some great guests and some more interesting formats. I have some special episodes coming up like the meat-eating heroes panel that we filmed for Food Lies with Mark Sisson, Dr. Shawn Baker, and Dr. Paul Saladino. I also put together a compilation episode that is 6 months in the making with amazing stories from people around America using nutrient de...

This is an interview I've been looking forward to for years. Dr. Dale Bredesen is shaking up the medical world by showing that Alzheimer's actually can be prevented, treated, and sometimes even reversed. This is really important to me because my mom is the final stages of Alzherimer's and I, of course, am doing everything I can to prevent myself from falling to the same fate. I believe the Sapien...

Hello again, my friends. Welcome back, I'm Brian Sanders and this the podcast that you just turned on and don't need a reminder on what it's called. But maybe you need a reminder of my name because I didn't put it on the cover art and I didn't put a picture of myself with my shirt off… yet. That's how you'll know it's a real podcast in the Fitness & Nutrition section of iTunes. Until then, I'll ju...

You guys are in for a treat. Dr. Frank Mitloehner is about to destroy every argument every anti-meat propaganda spewing know-it-all has ever let slip from their quinoa-loving lips. I'd list them all to get you fired up, but it would take too long. You're just going to have to listen up and pay attention to every second of this episode. Dr. Mitloehner has a masters in Agricultural Engineering and A...

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 whi...

Wow. Get ready for this one, everyone. Paul and I have been talking constantly for weeks and we have something special for you. This is a 2 part, 4 hour series that covers everything you can imagine on plant and animal foods. If this is your first time listening, make sure to go back and start at episode 1. To catch people up I'm Brian Sanders and I've quit my job and dedicated my life to studying...

Welcome back everyone, I'm Brian Sanders and I'm the founder of Sapien.org and the filmmaker behind the feature-length documentary Food Lies . Today we have fellow filmmaker and neighbor of mine, Chris Bell. We're making similar films and have a lot of similar ideas on nutrition. We're both coming at it from different angles and I think they're going to really push the movement forward in unique w...

She managed a five-year, National Institute of Health-funded program at the UNC Medical School. She's a nutrition consultant, speaker, and an all around oxalate expert.
