Food Lies & The Secrets to Longevity with Brian Sanders

Dr. Stephanie sits down with Brian Sanders, the filmmaker behind Food Lies, host of the Peak Human podcast, and international speaker to bust some common myths around our diet and evolution history. The two will dive into the great misconceptions about our ancestors and our diet, including the role meat, played in our brain development, fasting, and the average age of mortality. They will trace the evolution of the Modern Diet through Ancel Keys, and comment on the effects of smoking and convenience foods. Brian Sanders and Dr. Stephanie will discuss the propaganda surrounding the vegan diet and the moral dilemma regarding animal death. Finally, they will reveal what happens when testosterone levels decline, and when we restrict protein in relation to mTOR which has been touted as the secret to longevity. The two will share their simple ways to improve your health today.
