Episode notes

In the early 1900s, all the fat we ate was tallow and lard from pigs that are raised way better than they were today. And then somewhere around the 1950s, I think it was Eisenhower had a heart attack. The American Heart Association received a huge grant of like 20 million plus dollars in 1951 or something by Procter and Gamble. So you go to plants and then do you have to go away from saturated fat? You're not going to eat what is bad for you if you don't eat vegetables.

On this week’s podcast, Paul talks to wildlife biologist, Forrest Galante. They chat about Forrest’s adventures across the globe, and they dive into his experiences with indigenous cultures from an anthropological perspective.
