Low Carb MD Podcast

We are happy to be joined by Dr. Jerry Cammarata on the podcast. Today, we discuss the very important subject of bonding between parents and children and the related health factors involved. The health and quality of this relationship is essential to the development of the child’s health and well-being. Many ills have befallen the institution of the family during the industrial era, and many children are paying the price. Dr. Cammarata walks us through the various deleterious effects of the breakdown of the family institution.   Contact Info:   Dr. Jerry Cammarata: Twitter: @ Book: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07GQ581TP/ref=dp-kindle-redirect?_encoding=UTF8&btkr=1 Dr. Brian Lenzkes: Website: LowCarbMDSanDiego.com Dr. Tro Kalayjian: Website: https://www.doctortro.com/

We are excited to welcome Dr. Tony Hampton to the show today! Dr. Hampton adopted the low carb diet when he began to realize, through his own reading and by following the research, that it could be used to combat diabetes. When he realized that conventional methods didn’t treat the underlying disease, he decided that he had to re-evaluate his perspective. In this episode we discuss the culture variable in the equation of working with a patient to improve their health. Additionally, we talk about wholistic health and the importance of addressing underlying issues leading people to make unhealthy choices.

We are joined on the podcast today by business analyst, Ken Armstrong. Having been disappointed again and again by a variety of different diets, Ken discovered Gary Taubes’ book, Why We Get Fat, which set him on the path to finally attaining health and sustainable weight loss. After falling off the wagon for a while, he returned to low-carb and began trying intermittent fasting as well. This combination of fasting and dieting helped him to regain the progress he had lost. Since then, he has been experimenting with the carnivore diet as part of his continued effort to discover which nutritional decisions are best for him. “You are never beyond help. You are never beyond hope.” This is the message that Ken wants to communicate.

We discuss the content of Dr. Bikman’s upcoming book, Why We Get Sick: The Hidden Epidemic at the Root of Most Chronic Disease—and How to Fight It.

We are happy to be joined today by primary care physician and soon-to-be member of Brian Lenzkes’ DPC in San Diego, Dr. Kristin Baier. Upon being diagnosed with lupus during medical school, Dr. Baier began looking to nutrition for help. Her first experiment was with veganism—no help. She then transitioned into the paleo diet, during which time she found some success and began to lose weight. Finally, having discovered the ketogenic diet, she gave it a try and was able to come off of five different medications, eliminate her chronic headaches, and improve her lupus symptoms. We discuss the benefits of a direct primary care system for providing real quality care to patients.

We are honored to have Chris S. Cornell on the show with us today. Having tried time and time again to achieve a healthy weight, Chris had become frustrated with plant-based and calorie restriction diets. Over time, he eventually found his way to the low-carb diet thanks to a book recommendation—Why We Get Fat by Gary Taubes. Since then, Chris has been healthy and has reached a healthy weight using a low-carb approach to eating. We have a great conversation about dealing with sugar and carbohydrate addiction and the importance of community support.

We are so happy to have Ivor Cummins, the Fat Emperor, back on the show! We discuss the effectiveness, based on careful scientific studies of the available data, of the various suggested measures imposed to fight COVID-19. We discuss the findings of scientists who have been studying the pandemic as it plays out, and reflect on how, in hindsight, the outbreak has been handled. We also discuss studies which indicate the effectiveness of being outdoors versus indoors when it comes to fighting the spread of the virus. Additionally, we discuss studies that show a relationship between levels of Vitamin D in the body and susceptibility to death from COVID-19. Finally, we examine how the virus has progressed in various countries—countries like Sweden, Australia, and others—and compare their respective defensive strategies as well as the many accidental factors involved.

We are joined on the podcast today by Amber O’Hearn. Amber is someone who found success with the low carb diet, and who found even greater success with a carnivore diet. She found that not only could she lose ‘stubborn’ weight that she struggled to lose, but she was able to successfully eliminate her depression.  We spend time examining arguments for and against the carnivore diet and vegan diets. We discuss the difference between essential and non-essential nutrients and the beneficial effects of foods from the animal kingdom. Additionally, we discuss what it means to be satiated by your food. Finally, we discuss the upcoming carnivore diet conference at which Amber will be a speaker. Thank you for listening in!
