Dr. Shawn Baker Podcast

Rick has been on a carnivorous diet since August 1983, a practice he adopted after breaking his arm falling through a carport his father was building. The only break in his carnivorous regimen occurred between January 1993 and July 1993, when he experimented with a vegetarian/vegan lifestyle. However, after contracting a severe flu, he returned to his carnivorous ways. His formal education culminated in a college degree in electrical engineering, though he never ventured into that profession. In 1995, he embarked on a business journey with two friends, establishing an IT and networking venture. The business, however, met an unfortunate end when it went bankrupt in 2000. Undeterred by this setback, he collaborated with a friend from 2003 to 2008 to launch a business in the security cameras and DVRs sector, but he had to step away when the business ran out of funds in 2008. In the interim, between 2000 and 2013, he served as an instructor at Miami Dade Community College, teaching electronics and computer repair. Between 2014 and 2020, he put his professional endeavors on hold to take care of his ailing mother. Since the end of the Covid pandemic, he has been engaged in a variety of odd jobs, mostly concerning equipment repairs and property cleanouts.

Farrow founder Charles Mayfield’s interest in clean food and healthy products began when he was working as a personal trainer. He spent years researching nutrition to help his clients reach their fitness goals and eventually co-authored three paleo cookbooks. Along the way, he discovered that it’s not just the kinds of foods we eat that impact our health, but also the way those foods are grown. Learning about regenerative farming changed the course of his life. Charles began Mayfield Pastures with the goal of growing food in a way that could heal the body and the planet – and to give his children a deeper connection to healthy food and the land where it’s grown. As a regenerative farmer, he’s always looking for ways to reduce waste and make the most of the farm’s resources. Several years ago, suffering from a particularly brutal sunburn, Charles tried slathering himself with lard. He was blown away by the surprising speed of his recovery, began researching the use of animal fats in traditional skincare, and the idea for Farrow was born. Farrow’s ingredients are sourced exclusively from regenerative farms and the cream’s signature fragrance is a unique blend of doTerra essential oils.  Links: Farrow – Regenerative Agriculture Products for the Whole Body https://farrow.life/  Farrow Skin Health (@FarrowLife) / Twitter - https://twitter.com/farrowlife Timestamps: 00:00:00 Trailer and introduction. 00:01:56 Farrow.life: pigs, skincare, dream company. 00:05:58 Skin can absorb and be affected by chemicals. 00:12:09 Emulsifiers combine water and fat in skincare. 00:15:05 Tallow, lard, leaf lard: types of fat. 00:20:02 Skincare and food correlation, FDA testing, skincare routines 00:25:06 Product claims: reduces skin irritation, effective on various skin conditions. 00:29:35 Experimenting, creating, testing, and launching a skincare product. 00:33:52 Products last 6 months, but possibly longer. 00:35:39 Epic skincare bundle with portable tube. 00:39:45 Testing deodorant, family involvement, future aspirations. 00:45:02 Pork fat usage is insufficient, needs improvement. 00:47:16 Company grows one handshake at a time. 00:49:41 Church kitchen can handle 6000 orders.

Despite maintaining a mostly vegetarian diet and an active lifestyle, the narrator and his wife began experiencing metabolic health issues, including prediabetes, high triglycerides, vitamin deficiencies, and depression, which they initially attributed to stress and aging. After a personal health scare and extensive research, they decided to shift to a ketogenic diet in late 2021, gradually incorporating more animal products and reducing carb intake, which led to significant improvements in their physical health, mental well-being, and overall quality of life, although they still struggle with sugar cravings and maintaining their dietary changes.

Starting at age 17, Matt embarked on a health journey, grappling with unexplained neurological symptoms. Despite consulting several medical professionals, he received no clear diagnosis. He then explored the impact of diet on health. Initially, he attempted Atkins and keto diets and managed to lose weight but saw no relief from his neurological symptoms.  Next, he tried a vegan diet inspired by The Game Changers, but instead of improving, his health deteriorated further due to what he believed were nutrient deficiencies. Frustrated, he experimented with an anti-dieting approach, which only exacerbated his condition.  In a drastic change, he switched to a carnivorous diet, experiencing the first signs of improvement. He committed to this diet, incorporating unprocessed animal products and experiencing significant symptom relief and weight loss.  However, severe cramps emerged as a new issue. To counter this, he added carbohydrates from honey and fruit to his diet, following the advice of Saladino and Ray Peat. While this solved the cramping, he gained weight and lost muscle definition. A stint of consuming more carbs than meat led to blurry vision and eye floaters, but despite tests, the cause remained elusive. Ultimately, he returned to a carnivorous diet, enriched with more fats and prioritizing grass-fed and pasture-raised meats. He eliminated dairy to maintain focus on his meat-heavy diet.
