Unfortunately, each new guest contradicted the last and created more confusion than clarity.
From proponents of a vegan, paleo, Mediterranean Diet to a gluten-free and low carb diet, the opinions are as different as night and day.

After becoming frustrated with so much biased (often paid for) and conflicting research, Dr. Friedman created a common science meets common sense approach that answers the big question: “What the heck are we supposed to eat?!”

Antibiotics Changed the World. Then We Gave Them to Animals.

The Incredible Story of How Antibiotics Created Modern Agriculture and Changed the Way the World Eats

LISTEN TO THE INTERVIEW HERE

Chicken is the world’s most popular meat, but its path to our plates winds through a dark and fascinating history. BIG CHICKEN: The Incredible Story of How Antibiotics Created Modern Agriculture and Changed the Way the World Eats explores the “backyard bird’s” meteoric rise from local delicacy to global commodity, and how it paved the way for a stunning transformation of farming worldwide.

Award-winning journalist (New York Times Magazine, The Atlantic, Wired, Scientific American), critically acclaimed author (SUPERBUG and BEATING BACK THE DEVIL), and TED speaker with more than 1.5 million views for her talk “What do we do when antibiotics don't work anymore,” Maryn McKenna takes readers on an extraordinary journey from farm to lab to restaurant, and into the kitchens of everyday Americans and families around the globe.

Drawing on more than 100 interviews in the United States and Europe with farmers, lawyers, historians, microbiologists, politicians and chefs — and more than 1,000 pieces of research, McKenna pieces together the parallel, intertwined stories of the achievement of “growth promoter” antibiotics and the rise of the modern poultry industry. In a tour de force of scientific and cultural history, McKenna finds the connections between flavor and nutrition, genetics and history, labor and the role of women, and pollution and politics. 

 "A must-read for anyone who cares about the quality of food and the welfare of animals."

Terry shares her revolutionary modern paleo plan to treat all chronic autoimmune conditions.  Approximately 50 million Americans -- 20 percent of the population -- suffer from autoimmune diseases. And while some medication treatments may prove helpful, the rising tide in lifestyle and functional medicine is hard to ignore. Dr. Terry Wahls is a leader in this field, and was just recently awarded a $1 million grant toward her research at the University of Iowa to study the effectiveness of her diet program in the recovery and remission of MS by the MS Society.   In her new book, The Wahls Protocol Cooking for Life, she shares a practical plan to combat the symptoms of autoimmune conditions in your own kitchen, preventing -- and in many cases reversing -- the onset of these diseases.  Through diet, patients are able to heal their body by rebuilding damaged cells from the inside out.

 She talks about the three levels of diet based upon individual needs

·       The importance of taking in vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and essential fatty acids  from food, rather than pills and supplements

·        The latest research on autoimmune disease, brain biology and Paleo principles that    provide structure to diet in order to maximize healing.

 

The Wahls Protocol Cooking for Life not only explains in detail the fundamentals of functional medicine and Dr. Wahls’ own proven approach to cellular nutrition, but it offers a day-by-day, meal-by-meal (including holidays) plan to help readers get back to healthy.

Most people know sugar and carbohydrates aren’t good for us – but many don’t realize exactly how bad they are, or that they are the two leading causes of our current public health crisis. 

Dr. Richard Jacoby is a top peripheral nerve surgeon who realized that when too much sugar is in the blood, it causes nerve compression and inflammation that leads to a number of chronic diseases.  He lays out the situation in his new book, SUGAR CRUSH (Harper Wave, January 2016), which highlights the link between sugar and a number of conditions from cancer to Alzheimer’s.  Dr. Jacoby then shows how to better understand the affect of sugar on your health, where hidden sugar and carbs are coming from, and how to cut these poisons out of your life.  

DR. RICHARD JACOBY is one of the country’s leading peripheral nerve surgeons.  He practices in Scottsdale, AZ and specializes in the treatment of peripheral neuropathy.  He is also one of the cofounders of the Scottsdale healthcare Wound Management Center, a diplomat of the American Board of Podiatric Surgery, and a member of the American Podiatry Association, the Arizona Podiatry Association, and the Association of Extremity Nerve Surgeons.
