Episode notes

Before he was an ultra runner, Paul wrote a book about walking the Pacific Crest Trail. He would take desiccated organs like hard and soil or tallow as well as dehydrated meat on the trail. Peanut butter is high in protein but it's not good for you because of its lectins that cause cancer-causing molecule Aflatoxin. You should look at what plant-based proteins do to your brain compared to animal ones.

In this week’s episode, Paul chats with member of the biohacking space and author, Dave Asprey. They touch on phytic acid, oxalates and seed oils, they deep dive into fructose, they explain why peanut butter is one of the worst foods for humans, and they share their differing views on whether coffee is beneficial.
