Hello everyone. Today it's me, Maxim Pruchnewski, recording an audio version of an essay I wrote very recently outlining the essence of a story which occured in a surprising way to me in medical school and which, more importantly, highlighted the dangers associated with ideology together with the domain of personal belief entering the domain of science and possibly yielding undoubtedly unpleasant ramifications, as far as the persistence and firmness of inherently divine conceptualizations like freedom of speech or individual sovereignty as the paramount valus in western civilization are concerned.   Feel free to share this around because I wholeheartedly hope  that this will reach many people and make them at least look at this issue with a critical eye. There are things we absolutely have to apprehend, otherwise things are doomed to go haywire. This shall not further divide us and perpetuate the hatred, suffering and malevolence. Truth, honest speech and approaching people with a spirit of appreciation of their inherent individual sovereignty and dignity are the antidotes to this predicament.  Much Peace and Love, Maxim Find me on Insta: https://www.instagram.com/monky_caliplayground/ Find me on Twitter: https://twitter.com/MPruchnewski  More free stuff (books, videos and PDFs): https://linktr.ee/sapien_health Sapiens Playground on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCmNDo81K7jX7Thk0_NF_xng You can text me at sapiens.playground@web.de for podcast inquiries or any questions you have.

Welcome back and thanks very much for tuning in once again!  I was extremely excited for inviting my friend Frank Bohne from Vermont onto Sapiens Playground and diving as deep as we were intellectually able to into his personal health story. Frank works on an animal farm in Vermont and was not hesitant at all to share his experience having worked on different kinds of farms and to tell us in great detail about the insights which he discovered as a result of working on plant vs. animal farms, as well as all the lessons he learned during that process. Apart from discussing the justifications, applications but also concerns that arise when it comes to plant farms, even organic vegetable farms that Frank used to work on, we delved even deeper into his past.  I was particularly interested in the physical and mental transformation which he had undergone going from vegan to animal-based. Frank is a super nice, open-minded and humble human being who has a fascinating story to share and who went through the painful and taxing process of gradual health destruction and experienced vividly what it means to be riddled with disease and psychological suffering. He transcended his previous physical and mental condition and was ultimately able to defeat this horrible chaos, come out braver, stronger, humbler and with an additional sense of genuine compassion for anyone who is yet to find himself or herself in a state of terrible suffering, much as he has been confronted with for a vastly large portion of his adolescent life and his mid-twenties. I’m more than grateful to have had the honor and opportunity to receive such personal insights from his narrations and am sure that this will be of just as tremendous value to every single one of you as it was to me.  In short summary, we discussed farming practices, diet, organ meats, how to conduct oneself properly in the face of uncomfortable conversations, accusations and haters. There was much more going on, hence it’s no bloody wonder that we ended up talking for more than 2 hours. Enjoy our conversations and share this with a friend if you found it meaningful and useful information!

Hello friend, and welcome back to the show! I am very delighted to be back talking with another guest on Sapiens Playground. The conversation I had today with Quetzal, @wildquetzal on Instagram, was a particularly inspiring one as we primarily attempted to get behind the ethical considerations, as far as diet and food choices are concerned, and the ultimate implications that this might have on the way you look at the world and, moreover, how you approach interactions with other individuals, especially with those who are in stringent disagreement and opposition to whatever argument you are attempting to bring forward. Quetzal has, as frequently characteristic for enthusiasts in the health community, a personal story to tell which very nicely displays the severity and magnitude of physical and mental transformation that he had to undergo in order to arrive at the place in which he currently finds himself assisting others in remembering who they have always been as humans and how to integrate specific habits and forms of behaviour into their lives to not only achieve optimal well-being but also experience the delicate balance that comes along with this sort of transformation.  This conversation went very well, as far as I'm concerned. Unfortunately, we did not manage to delve deeper into the specific characteristics of his diet and lifestyle, however, I am sure that in the near future an opportunity will present itself to continue and broaden our discussion, further develop and consolidate the ideas and sort things out more sophisticatedly to help ourselves and other people to develop a clearer and more accurate understanding of the profundity, significance and applicability of these sorts of topics.  Enjoy our conversation!

Welcome back!  Recently, I had the honor to be invited to the Highest  Health Podcast which is hosted by Natasha Dasaro. I very much appreciate  her giving me that opportunity and enough space to really go very deep  into the pathophysiological processes underlying atherosclerosis,  ultimately leading to heart disease. After ellaborating on the things which clearly do not make much sense to  me in the lipid hypothesis of atherosclerosis, I go on presenting an  alternative hypothesis, which should not be regarded to as an entirely  new hypothesis since there is actually a lot of evidence backing up all  these underlying processes.   Over the course of the conversation I extensively keep referring to the  work of Dr. Malcolm Kendrick because he was clearly very influential  when it comes to the way my perception of atherosclerosis has evolved  over the years.  In the second part we discuss the things that would probably have the  greatest impact on reducing heart disease and thus prolonging your life.    It's been great to talk with Natasha on the Highest Health Podcast, so  make sure to check out some of the other episodes on her podcast! Enjoy listening and I am sure that this will be of some great value to  everyone who has an interest in optimizing health and loves diving  really deep into topics.   Natasha's Podcast on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1BYJGgMtI4349WygI2DHCR?si=038bf1e9b4074a23  Natasha's Podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/highest-health/id1609783569  Find Natasha on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/natashadasaro/  If you'd like to support her podcast you can here: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/natashadasaro   Find me on Insta: https://www.instagram.com/monky_caliplayground/  Find me on Twitter: https://twitter.com/MPruchnewski  More free stuff (books, videos and PDFs): https://linktr.ee/sapien_health  Sapiens Playground on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCmNDo81K7jX7Thk0_NF_xng  Listen to Sapiens Playground on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6IcilHhRDVTiVxGO5uuYlp?si=ab520e5d7fc24a3a  Listen on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/de/podcast/sapiens-playground-a-place-for-true-health-unbiased/id1534777361  You can text me at sapiens.playground@web.de for podcast inquiries or any questions you have.   Check out Malcolm Kendrick's blog on his website: https://drmalcolmkendrick.org/  The link to all the books he has written: https://drmalcolmkendrick.org/books-by-dr-malcolm-kendrick/  Dr. Malcolm Kendrick on Twitter: https://twitter.com/malcolmken

Hello everyone. Today it's me, Maxim Pruchnewski, recording an audio version of an essay I wrote very recently concerning some of the more fundamental questions that we should be thinking about in regards to the current situation. Feel free to share this around because I wholeheartedly hope  that this will reach many people and make them at least look at the current issue from a different, more fundamental perspective. This thing  shall not divide us. It shall not split us and make us hate each other.  This thing has to stop. Otherwise it quickly degenerate into something awfully undesirable.

Welcome back! Today I had the pleasure to talk to one of the very controversial figures in regards to heart disease and the association between Apo-B containing lipoptroteins, aka LDL, VLDL, etc. and heart disease. Dr. Malcolm Kendrick who is a family physician from Scotland can be considered a great mentor and teacher as far as I am concerned, since many of the ideas that he brings forward and methods and ways of scientificly approaching a problem, just resonated with me so beautifully that I have been able to extract tremendous value and continue to learn a lot from his work. Malcolm has authored several books like Doctoring Data or his most recent one – The Clot Thickens, he leads a blog on his website https://drmalcolmkendrick.org/ and has published and co-authored quite a significant number of scientific papers many of which were aimed at assessing the controversies and unresolved questions in regards to the pathophysiological processes which fundamentally underlie atherosclerotic plaque formation and, ultimately, heart disease.  In this first part of our conversation we were mostly discussing all the facts and evidence pointing against the presumption of LDL, or Apo-B containing lipoproteins, being the number one driving causal factor behind plaque formation which is usually referred to as cardiovascular disease. Unfortunately, we didn’t quite manage to thoroughly discuss Dr. Kendrick’s hypothesis and explanations which he so beautifully describes in his most recent book and which he established as a result of several decades of constant digging, reading, questioning and exploring for the mere sake of finding something, finding a model that would be incontrovertible, unambiguous and capable of withstanding any criticisms from the other side. A model that would be able to explain virtually every observation and risk factor as far as heart disease is concerned.In our second part we will continue to take apart the standard mainstream Lipid Hypothesis and, in particular, go much deeper into the real pathophysiology behind cardiovascular disease manifesting itself as a heart attack, stroke, etc. Enjoy the great conversation I had today with Dr. Malcolm Kendrick!

Enjoy the nice talk I recently had in an Instagram-Live with my good friend Dr. Camilo Karpf, who is a medical doctor from Columbia. Camilo practices in a clinic in Hamburg, Germany and is not only helping patient after patient to reverse chronic disease and come off medication through lifestyle interventions but is also engaged in a number of different projects here in Germany and also in Columbia which among other things includes cooking delicious and nutritious meals for children and similar kinds of endeavour. We had a vehemently satisfying discourse and exchange of ideas regarding the issues and problems that we both encountered in medical school and keep facing in daily life and in our attempts to produce some kind of change in terms of how the health care and patient-treating system is set up. We briefly touch on certain aspects of where exactly the dietary model went wrong and give a quick overview on our dietary approaches. My apologies for the rather inferior and unappropriate sound-quality! I am planning to record a bunch of podcasts with Camilo very soon and I promise that the sound-quality in those episodes will be much more appealing and comfortable to listen to.  Having said all that, enjoy our chat!  Dr. Camilo's FaunaMedicina on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/faunamedicina/ Get in contact: https://karpf.co/ Find me on Insta: https://www.instagram.com/monky_caliplayground/ Find me on Twitter: https://twitter.com/MPruchnewski  More free stuff (books, videos and PDFs): https://linktr.ee/sapien_health Sapiens Playground on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCmNDo81K7jX7Thk0_NF_xng Listen to Sapiens Playground on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6IcilHhRDVTiVxGO5uuYlp?si=ab520e5d7fc24a3a Listen on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/de/podcast/sapiens-playground-a-place-for-true-health-unbiased/id1534777361 You can text me at sapiens.playground@web.de for podcast inquiries or any questions you have.
