Today, I am blessed to have here with me Dr. Saladino. He is the leading authority on the science and application of the carnivore diet. He has used this diet to reverse autoimmunity, chronic inflammation and mental health issues in hundreds of patients, many of whom had been told their conditions were untreatable.

In addition to his personal podcast, Fundamental Health, he can be found featured on numerous podcasts including The Minimalists, The Model Health Show, Bulletproof Radio, The Dr. Gundry Podcast, The Ben Greenfield Podcast, Dr. Mercola, Health Theory, Mark Bell’s Power Project, and many others. He has also appeared on The Doctors TV show and will release his first book in 2020 titled, “The Carnivore Code: Unlocking the Secrets to Optimal Health by Returning to our Ancestral Diet.”

In this episode, Dr. Paul Saladino first speaks about his appearance on the Doctors and how it was a complete hit job. Then, Dr. Saladino reveals the reason he started incorporating more carbohydrates into his diet. We talk about why insulin resistance isn’t the best term to describe what is going on with people’s health. Later, we dive into the importance of lowering your linolic acid intake. Tune in as we chat about omega-3s, why Dr. Paul doesn’t eat any vegetables, and if there is a connection between eating meat and colon cancer.

[00:50] Dr. Paul Saladino Talks About His Appearance on The Doctors

Before Dr. Paul’s appearance on The Doctors, he was told it would be a debate.
They had five doctors and one lawyer. Plus, they had a vegan doctor to argue against Dr. Paul.
There was a lot of yelling, and Dr. Paul was barely given a chance to say what he needed to say.
Paul invited them to his podcast to have an honest and genuine debate. None of them showed up.

[09:50] Why Dr. Paul Started To Eat More Carbohydrates

Ketosis at the beginning for Dr. Paul without carbohydrates in his diet seemed fine.
Eventually, Dr. Paul was getting a lot of muscle cramps, and he was getting heart palpitations at night.
So, Dr. Paul started to reintroduce carbohydrates into his diet.
First, he started to introduce honey into his lifestyle. After incorporating honey, Dr. Paul started to feel better.
Blood sugar will spike when you include carbohydrates in your diet, especially honey. However, Dr. Paul’s blood glucose tracing was very low.

[22:50] Why Dr. Paul Doesn’t Like The Term Insulin Resistance

Paul doesn’t like the term insulin resistance. He thinks metabolic dysfunction is a more precise term.
He doesn't like to say insulin resistance because two types of insulin resistance are often confused and conflated.
The first type of insulin resistance is physiologic insulin resistance.
Humans have evolved a state known as ketosis, which goes hand in hand with physiologic insulin resistance.
Then, there is pathological insulin resistance.
Many people who exclude carbohydrates will see improvements in their physiology.

[34:50] The Importance of Decreasing The Amount of Linoleic Acid In Your Diet

Many people should decrease the amount of linoleic acid in their diet.
We have to understand how much linoleic acid is in the foods we eat as humans.
Soybean oil has 45 to 50% linoleic acid.
Butter and tallow, which has rendered animal fat from cows, will have much lower levels of linoleic acid, around 2%.
The composition of our cell membranes takes a long time to change. So, breaking down the linoleic acid will take a great deal of time.
A low carbohydrate approach will help lower the linoleic acid in your diet.

[40:00] What Happens When We Consume Too Much Linoleic Acid

When we eat more linoleic acid, we can find more oxidized LDL.
The oxidation and the instability of linoleic acid is one of the problems.
There could be some potentially hormonal roles for linoleic acid that are negative as well.
The underlying thing to consider here is an evolutionarily appropriate diet for humans.
We consume much more linoleic acid than we ever have.

[47:25] Should You Be Taking Fish Oils on The Ketogenic Diet?

Fish oil spoils extremely fast.
These oils are so fragile, and we're putting them in capsules, and we're presuming that they're not oxidized.
The only place Dr. Paul is getting omega-3 is essentially from ruminant animal fat.
Paul is not convinced that omega-3s are that beneficial or that we should be pumping ourselves full of them.
There have been millions and millions of humans that have no access to coastal foods; they did just fine from eating land animals.

[64:35] You Want To Push Your Linoleic Acid Consumption As Low As Possible

Paul says to keep your linoleic acid consumption as low as possible.
The human body can't make omega-6, but there's omega-6 in everything.
The linoleic acid composition of a mother's breast milk changes based on their dietary consumption.
If you look at the hunter-gatherers, their linoleic acid in the breast milk is much lower because they're eating so little linoleic acid in their diet.

[70:10] Thirty Days To Radical Health

Paul is doing an animal-based 30-day challenge.
In fact, Dr. Paul challenges you to try an animal-based diet for 30 days and NOT flourish!

When you sign up, he will send you a free infographic and an eBook.

[75:55] Are There Any Vegetables That You Should Be Eating?

If you think canonically about what a vegetable is, it's the part of a plant that it doesn't want you to eat.
Vegetables don’t have a role in human health unless you want to go to great lengths to detoxify them.
If you want to do vegetables, ferment the heck out of them and maybe do something like sauerkraut.
Even some fruit can be problematic for humans.

[88:10] Is There Really A Connection Between Eating Meat and Colon Cancer?

We've been cooking meat for more than a million years.
Calcium is an essential part of every human diet, whether you're getting it from bones or you're getting it from good sources of dairy.
When you have more calcium in the diet, you tend to see lower rates of colon cancer.
Overall, we should go back to the idea of what's evolutionarily consistent, and we try to understand that as best as possible to inform our behaviors.
