Is it Time to Embrace the Animal-Based Diet? Are your auto-pilot food choices killing you?

In this episode of the Longevity podcast, I am joined by Michael Kummer, to dive into a fascinating discussion about the journey from traditional diets to paleo, keto, and ultimately carnivore eating. We chat about the significant role animal protein and organ meats play in human health and evolution, and the socio-political challenges around meat consumption today. We explore the undeniable benefits of organ meats, practical steps to regain control of our diets, and the importance of making conscious food choices.

Michael Kummer is a former professional sprinter, a CrossFit athlete, and the founder of MK Supplements, a dietary supplement brand that offers freeze-dried organ meat sourced from 100% pasture-raised cattle.
