Mark Ennis's story reads like a medical impossibility, yet it's devastatingly real. From a 44-pound anorexic teenager whose heart stopped, to a 300-pound rugby player, to a suicidal man contemplating driving into a pole at 120 mph—his journey through the extremes of human suffering culminates in one of the most powerful testimonies about the connection between diet and mental health you'll ever hear.In this raw, unfiltered conversation, Mark shares how three days on a carnivore diet eliminated decades of depression, eating disorders, and suicidal thoughts. He reveals why he burned his nutrition certificates, how the medical system failed him repeatedly, and why he believes food addiction is behind the mental health crisis plaguing our world.This isn't just another diet success story. It's a window into how our modern food environment creates the very problems our healthcare system claims to treat. Mark's transformation from a broken man to a thriving carnivore coach offers hope for anyone trapped in cycles of depression, eating disorders, or metabolic dysfunction.Dr. Philip Ovadia and Jack Heald guide this profound discussion about the emerging science connecting metabolic health to mental wellness, the institutional barriers preventing this information from reaching those who need it most, and practical steps for anyone ready to reclaim their life through ancestral nutrition.BIG IDEAWithin three days, my mental health issues were gone, my digestive issues were gone, I was more alert, I wasn't tired anymore, I had more energy—I was like, oh my God, this is insane.Contact Mark EnnisWebsite: https://fitnessbeyondtime01.com/Special Audience Giveaway:  •5 Steps to Reclaim Your Energy and Health with Keto-Carnivore•https://fitnessbeyondtime01.com/Social Media:      •Instagram - @fitnessbeyondtime01Previous Podcasts: •Command Your Brand Show•The Low Carb Hustle Podcast w/ Nate Palmer•Boundless Body Radio w/ Bethany and Casey Ruff•Carnivore Conversations LIVESend Dr. Ovadia a Text Message.

Anthropologist Dr. Bill Schindler went from dangerous wrestling weight cuts to unlocking the secrets of human survival through food processing. In this conversation, he explains why every plant on Earth contains toxins, how our ancestors developed technologies to make food safe and nutritious, and why modern food processing has gone dangerously wrong.Learn the truth about potatoes (hint: peel them), why fermentation was humanity's greatest innovation, and how a traditional restaurant is proving that ancestral food wisdom can work in the modern world. Schindler shares jaw-dropping stories from his travels with indigenous communities, from toxic manioc processing in Brazil to ancient cheese-making techniques that will change how you think about dairy.This isn't about going paleo or living like a caveman. It's about understanding that we have 300,000-year-old bodies trying to survive in a modern food system that prioritizes profit over nutrition. The solution isn't going backward, but applying ancient wisdom to contemporary life.Whether you're struggling with health issues, curious about human evolution, or simply want to understand why your relationship with food feels broken, this conversation provides answers that textbooks miss and doctors don't teach.BIG IDEA"We have literally over millions of years out eaten our digestive tract, and we require many of those technologies in our food system in order to transform raw materials into something that can actually nourish these bodies that we have today."Contact InfoBook: Eat Like a HumanInstagram: @drbillschindlerFacebook: @drbillschindlerWebsite: www.modernstoneage.comSend Dr. Ovadia a Text Message.

When Dr. Nouran Abdelkader developed vitiligo—a disfiguring autoimmune skin condition—the UK's top dermatologist told her there was no hope and no treatment. The disease would spread everywhere, he said. She'd have to live with it forever.What happened next challenges everything we think we know about autoimmune disease, nutrition, and healing.This emergency medicine doctor didn't just heal her vitiligo. She also resolved her lifelong asthma, eczema, chronic hives, ADHD symptoms, depression, panic attacks, and brain fog. Her IQ jumped from 110 to 137. Her diabetic sister reduced insulin from 70 units to 7 units daily.The solution? She eliminated everything except meat, salt, and water.Dr. Abdelkader shares her controversial journey from believing every medical guideline to questioning the entire system. She explains why she now feels guilty prescribing standard treatments, how she risks her medical license by sharing her experience, and why she believes most medical research serves profit over patients.This isn't just another diet success story. It's a practicing physician's firsthand account of how the medical establishment fails patients with chronic disease—and what actually works when conventional medicine doesn't.Her transformation raises uncomfortable questions: If meat heals while fruits and vegetables inflame, what else have we gotten wrong? Why can't doctors share successful treatments that contradict guidelines? And how many people are suffering needlessly because the system won't acknowledge inconvenient truths?BIG IDEA"We are made of meat, water, salt and trace elements—so if you eat what you are made of, you'll be fine, but if you eat something we're not made of, like vegetables or sugar, problems arise."Nouran Abdelkader - Contact InfoLinkedIN: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nouran-el-dali-528a26b8Send Dr. Ovadia a Text Message.

Dr. Ravi Kamepalli made a startling realization that changed everything: bacteria aren't the enemy. As both an infectious disease specialist and wound care physician, he witnessed firsthand how traditional medicine's war on microbes was failing patients catastrophically. In this profound conversation, he unveils his revolutionary "disease triangles" framework that connects our immune system, lipid metabolism, and microbiome in ways that transform how we understand healing.The statistics he shares will shock you: diabetic foot amputations have a higher five-year mortality rate than breast cancer. While diabetes costs healthcare systems $237 billion annually compared to cancer's $80 billion, we're attacking symptoms instead of root causes. Dr. Kamepalli explains his concept of "energy toxicity" - how excess stored energy triggers inflammatory cascades that turn our own immune systems against us.Through his personal journey of losing 50 pounds and dramatically reducing his LP(a) levels, he demonstrates that supposedly "genetic" markers are actually nutritionally modifiable. His approach integrates metabolic interventions with wound care, using continuous glucose monitoring, food logging, and remote patient tracking to address the underlying metabolic dysfunction that prevents healing.This isn't just about wound care - it's about reimagining medicine itself. Dr. Kamepalli advocates for moving beyond "mass medicine mindset" toward personalized, n-of-one healthcare that empowers patients with tools, tracking, and understanding rather than simply prescribing interventions. His vision extends from revolutionizing American healthcare to building sustainable systems in rural India.BIG IDEA"We cannot kill bacteria and keep the humans alive - we need to learn how to survive together, and that survival depends on fixing our metabolic dysfunction, not declaring war on microbes."Dr. Ravi Kamepalli Contact InfoWebsite: https://nobadbugs.com/Social Media: @WoundPhysicianWebsite: ColigoMed.comSociety for Metabolic Health Practitioners SMHP.orgSend Dr. Ovadia a Text Message.

Personal trainer and counseling psychology expert Alli Covington exposes the overlooked connection between mental health and metabolic dysfunction that's keeping millions trapped in cycles of weight gain and chronic disease. After watching her father follow every doctor's recommendation only to develop GERD, high cholesterol, diabetes, and die young despite compliance, Alli discovered the missing piece most fitness professionals ignore.In this candid conversation, she breaks down her revolutionary approach that combines biochemistry knowledge with psychological intervention. Learn why thoughts literally trigger hormonal cascades that can sabotage metabolism, how anxiety creates cortisol storms at the cellular level, and why addressing trauma while exercising accelerates healing beyond traditional therapy.Alli shares real client transformations, including her husband's 40-pound weight loss and a 60-year-old woman who reached her high school weight for the first time in decades by addressing deep-rooted anxiety. She also reveals why the bodybuilding community understood nutrition decades before medical professionals caught up, and how fixing gut health can resolve everything from ADHD symptoms to mood disorders.Whether you're struggling with stubborn weight, mysterious digestive issues, or feel trapped by food addiction patterns, this interview provides a fresh framework for understanding how your mental state directly impacts your physical health.BIG IDEAIf somebody's gained more than 20 pounds since their ideal weight, it wasn't on accident - there's some mental stuff going on, and we're using food to cope with some kind of pain.Alli Covington Contact InfoTwitter: @allicovingtonInstagram: @allicovingtonFacebook: @allicovingtonWebsite: https://bodbyalli.comLinkedIn: @allicovingtonSend Dr. Ovadia a Text Message.
