The Nugget Climbing Podcast EP 281: Something Different | Sustainable Food for Peak Performance with Jake Muise (CEO & Founder of Maui Nui Venison)
What if you could eat the healthiest meat on the planet while helping the environment? Jake Muise is the CEO and founder of Maui Nui Venison, and joins me to talk about sustainable food and the future of nutrient density. We talked about the overpopulation of Axis deer in Hawaii, the cyclical die-off they experience without predation, solving complex problems, the secret to sustaining high-level output, harvesting at night, nutrition of place, sharing with community, and much more.
