187. Meat vs. plants for longevity

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In today’s episode, Paul addresses longevity in terms of how his views differ from those in the longevity community that promote eating less meat and more vegetables. He touches on mTOR, leucine, methionine, and glycine, and ultimately answers the question of: Will an animal-based diet improve our vitality, but decrease our longevity?</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">A note from Paul: Throughout my training and practice as a physician I have come to one very disappointing conclusion:  Western medicine isn’t helping people lead better lives. Now that I’ve realized this, I’ve become obsessed with understanding what makes us healthy or ill. I want to live the best life I can and I want to be able to share this knowledge with others so that they can do the same. This podcast is the result of my relentless search to understand the roots of chronic disease. If you want to know how to live the most radical life possible I hope you’ll join me on this journey.</span></p> <p><strong>Time Stamps:</strong></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">00:08:59 Podcast begins</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">00:10:57 David Sinclair on longevity</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">00:12:10 What does mainstream medicine say about red meat & longevity?</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">00:14:00 What does the longevity community recommend as an ideal diet?</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">00:30:27 What are mice fed in most animal studies?</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">00:34:07 Why we don’t need to fear mTOR</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">00:40:17 Thoughts on leucine</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">00:50:27 Should we restrict our methionine intake? </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">00:56:57 Studies on the benefits of eating meat</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">1:00:37 The evolutionary consistency of an animal-based diet</span></p> <p><strong>Sponsors:</strong></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Heart & Soil:</span> <span style="font-weight: 400;"><a href="http://www.heartandsoil.co">www.heartandsoil.co</a></span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Carnivore MD Merch:</span> <a href="http://www.kaleisbullshit.shop"><span style="font-weight: 400;">www.kaleisbullshit.shop</span></a></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Make a donation to the Animal Based Nutritional Research Foundation:</span> <a href="http://abnrf.org"><span style="font-weight: 400;">abnrf.org</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> </span><strong> </strong></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">White Oak Pastures:</span> <a href="http://www.whiteoakpastures.com"><span style="font-weight: 400;">www.whiteoakpastures.com</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">, use code CarnivoreMD for 10% off your first order or Carnivore5 for 5% off subsequent orders</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Colima Salt:</span> <a href="http://drpaulsalt.com"><span style="font-weight: 400;">drpaulsalt.com</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">, for a free bag of Colima Sea Salt</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Higher Dose:</span> <a href="http://www.higherdose.com/paul"><span style="font-weight: 400;">www.higherdose.com/paul</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">, or use code PAUL for 15% off your order</span></p> <p><strong><span style="font-weight: 400;">Our Sponsor LetsGetChecked: Go to</span> <a href="https://trylgc.com/paulsaladino"><span style="font-weight: 400;">https://trylgc.com/paulsaladino</span></a> <span style="font-weight: 400;">and use code PAULSALADINO for 25% off</span></strong></p>
