Dr. Shawn Baker Podcast

McCafferty Ranch are a family owned and operated cattle ranch in Central Montana owned by Joel and Cindy McCafferty (the 3rd, 4th, and 5th generations are all living on the ranch). In 2014, Joel and Cindy's daughter Megan (and husband Logan) moved back to the ranch, and the need to diversify the ranch's income arose. Joel had seen hydroponics used by a friend to maintain his bull herd. When he saw this, he immediately started thinking about how he could feed out beef cattle on barley sprouts. After some research (although there was very limited research on the topic at the time) they jumped all in and built a hydroponic plant on the ranch. The plant was designed and built by members of the family in 2017, and they started feeding cattle on barley sprouts for direct to consumer sales. Their mission from the get go was to produce the healthiest and best tasting beef possible. They feel as if they have accomplished that. All of their beef cattle are born and raised on their ranch. They practice gentle cattle handling from birth to processing by doing all of their cattle work on horseback. Finally, the beef is finished on barley sprouts. The barley fodder has allowed their cattle to gain weight extremely well (comparable to grain finished beef) and to marble extremely well (comparable to grain finished beef). They often tell potential customers that the barley sprouts allow their animals to gain weight much like an athlete would - through a healthy diet and exercise (their animals are fed out in a large pasture where they are required to walk distances to feed, graze and water). These health benefits are translated into the beef product. Currently they sell beef direct to consumers through nationwide sales and bulk local orders. Additionally, they have recently started producing beef tallow products such as soaps, lotions, and leather conditioners that are 100% non-toxic and really allow them to utilize the whole animal. They have also redesigned their hydroponic plant and manufactured an entirely new hydroponic system that is now available to purchase. This new hydroponic system is unlike any other on the market and they believe superior because of production ability, state of the art automations, and lower price points than competitors. They could go on and on about the applications for hydroponics within the ag industry and believe that it could really change agriculture for the better. https://www.mccaffertyranch.com/ https://www.instagram.com/mccaffertyranchbeef/ Timestamps 00:00 Introduction 04:15 Hydroponics 07:50 Sprouts as finishing ration 12:55 USDA grading system 15:13 Water used for producing sprouts 17:51 Herbicides, pesticides 19:37 Temperature 23:42 Just water and barley 26:53 Acreage 32:56 Drought in Montana 38:07 Limitations to scaling 43:59 Metabolomic analysis of beef 49:36 Feeding hydroponic sprouts to beef See open positions at Revero: https://jobs.lever.co/Revero/ Join Carnivore Diet for a free 30 day trial: https://carnivore.diet/join/ Book a Carnivore Coach: https://carnivore.diet/book-a-coach/ Carnivore Shirts: https://merch.carnivore.diet Subscribe to our Newsletter: https://carnivore.diet/subscribe/ . ‪#revero #shawnbaker #Carnivorediet #MeatHeals #HealthCreation #humanfood #AnimalBased #ZeroCarb #DietCoach #FatAdapted #Carnivore #sugarfree ‪

Dr. Ryan Attar is a Naturopathic Physician & Nutritionist currently practicing in Fairfield, Connecticut. Dr. Attar has also been living with T1 diabetes since 2007. He was diagnosed while serving in the US Army, where he advanced to the rank of Captain. After his diagnosis he was medically retired from the Army, and became frustrated with the way diabetes is managed by nearly all doctors. He began to educate himself on health, nutrition and diabetes, and saw his blood sugars normalize to non-diabetic levels. He is an advocate for the low carbohydrate management of diabetes, and follows the method of Dr. Richard Bernstein, who he had the opportunity to shadow with as a student. Dr. Attar's frustration with the standard management of diabetes inspired him to change careers and go back to school first for a master's in human nutrition, followed by a doctorate in naturopathic medicine. Dr. Attar has been exploring the carnivore diet for the past 3 years, and feels his health has never been better. Most notably, thyroid antibodies and TSH both lowered since following a carnivore diet. He recommends this way of eating to many of his patients. Dr. Attars other interests including jiujitsu (currently a blue belt), CrossFit, and traveling (having been to 75 countries).

From Claire: I am 66 years young, and have 4 adult children, 11 grandchildren, and 2 great-grandchildren. I am blessed! I live in the Bay of Plenty Tauranga New Zealand. My health issues really began in my early years. I grew up on a high carb/sugar diet and eventually learned to control my weight with calorie restriction sometimes as low as 700 calories a day. My weight would fluctuate between 7 1/2 to 9 1/2 stone during my 20's – 40's. I realize now my body was starving for nutrients, and I was continually hungry. I became interested in healthy eating during my 20's and by my 30's I developed gut issues like bloating and discomfort, then developed acid reflux during my pregnancies which continued afterwards. I tried to heal these stomach issues by introducing more healthy foods like home-made yogurt, home -made bread (including grinding my own flour from grain) and eliminating refined sugar and ate low fat. This helped for a while. But as I got older I found I had to eliminate many more foods. Firstly coffee, then gluten and some vegetables. I included meat in my diet as I did not agree with the vegan philosophy, which began with Seventh Day Adventist ideology which totally ignores much of Scripture where God approves the eating of meat. However I generally ate meat in small portions. By 2020 I was having to eliminate many more foods as my adverse reaction to many foods was increasing. I had now eliminated everything except, rice, rice-cakes, eggs, broccoli, capsicum, fish, and meat. My symptoms intensified until I finally developed microscopic colitis. I lost a lot of weight although I was already thin. I became very concerned as although I tried to function normally, not wanting to tell anyone of my embarrassing condition, I could not leave the house unless I had not eaten at least 6 hours prior. Finally after months of trying to remedy it on my own I went to the Dr and was tested for giardia, and for any bacterial infection. He did blood tests also, but nothing was revealed. Eventually my doctor suspected microscopic colitis. I did not want to go on steroid medication and told my Dr I would like to try to find another solution first. I didn't know how I was going to achieve this, but while in the supermarket during my weekly shop I was suddenly aware of the fact that there was nothing there I could eat. So I prayed desperately right there (silently) and said "God what can I eat?" As I was leaving with an empty trolley, I felt 'impressed' to go back and buy a cooked chicken. It did not appeal to me as I felt nauseous, but I purchased it anyway. Over the next couple of days I forced myself to eat it, but I still felt so sick. However it got me thinking that if God had indeed impressed on me to buy it, then it was for good reason. So I began researching about meat which thankfully led me to discover Carnivore eating. I began eating just meat and rice, thinking I needed the carbs for energy as I suddenly developed extreme fatigue. But after two weeks I decided to stop the rice and do Carnivore properly. Amazingly....within 24 hours my chronic symptoms ceased. Just stopped! I could not believe it! Since then I have learned the benefit of including more fat, salt and the inclusion of magnesium via foot soaks to relieve leg cramps. I thrive on fatty lamb, and eat some beef each day. At this stage I don't eat butter but would like to include it again soon. During the 6 months I've been fully carnivore I've had one flare-up with symptoms when I introduced egg yolk back into my diet. So I quickly eliminated that. My fatigue is gone and most days I feel great. I'd say I am 95% healed, and am hopeful the Raynaud's symptoms I have will heal too.
