Watch the full video interview on YouTube here: https://bit.ly/andyhnilo408 Andy Hnilo (IG: @andyhnilo) is former athlete, model, and actor that had his life turned upside down. On March 20th, 2011, he was struck by a series of large vehicles while crossing a busy street, a trauma that caused seven broken ribs, a collapsed lung, and an extreme compound fracture. Determined to come back even stronger, Andy was able to be back on the runway in less than 3 months. He was able to heal his skin by immersing himself in a diligent skincare routine that included a mineral-rich blend of four clays, organic superfoods, and nutrient-dense ingredients: a process that healed his body.

400: Dr. Paul Saladino on The Carnivore Code
Dr. Paul Saladino (IG: @carnivoremd) is the leading authority on the science and application of the carnivore diet. He has used this diet to reverse autoimmunity, chronic inflammation and mental health issues in hundreds of patients, many of whom had been told their conditions were untreatable. In addition to Paul's personal podcast, Fundamental Health, he can be found featured on numerous other podcasts. Paul's book is The Carnivore Code: Unlocking the Secrets to Optimal Health by Returning to our Ancestral Diet. In this episode, we discuss: What is the nose to tail carnivore diet?
