Degrees of Health The Case Against Plants | Dr Anthony Chaffee
Some people find health through green smoothies. Others find it in 3 kilos of steak cooked in ghee.
Dr. Anthony Chaffee is a neurosurgical registrar and ex-professional rugby player who’s been running on nothing but animal products for years. No salads. No supplements. No exceptions. In this conversation, we get into the weeds of his theory, that many modern illnesses (autoimmune conditions, metabolic disorders, mental health struggles) are not mysterious at all, they are the result of eating the wrong fuel.

🧬 Autoimmunity, inflammation & symptom reversals
🍳 What a carnivore diet looks like day-to-day
