Why “Everything in Moderation” Doesn't Work

What if the foods you trust most are the very things sabotaging your health? In this riveting episode, Eric Edmeades breaks down the lies we’ve been sold—and the truth about reclaiming our well-being.

In this episode of A Wilder Life, Eric discusses the dangerous myth of "everything in moderation," how modern food systems have hijacked our biology, and the profound consequences of straying from our evolutionary diet. Drawing on stories from the wild, shocking medical insights, and his own healing journey, Eric exposes why human-fed beings—ourselves, our kids, pets, and livestock—are among the sickest on Earth, and what we can do to turn the tide.

Key Takeaways:

→ “Everything in moderation” is a cultural trap leading to chronic poor health.

→ Food became toxic when it became a product for profit, not nourishment.

→ Every species has a specific diet; humans are no exception.

→ The modern health crisis is not your fault—it’s the system’s, and shame won’t solve it.

→ True health transformation comes from shifting your relationship with food, not from restriction or calorie counting.
