161. Concerns of Long-Term Carnivore Debunked | Real Talk with Plant Free MD, Anthony Chaffee

I had the pleasure of sitting down with Dr. Anthony Chaffee. We talked about things that are controversial in the carnivore space, his experience with the carnivore diet and how he’s been doing it long-term. Dr. Chaffee is an American medical doctor in his neurosurgical residency in Australia. He’s a former professional rugby player who, over the span of 20+ years of his athletic and medical careers, has researched the optimal nutrition for human performance and health. It is his assertion that most of the so-called chronic diseases we treat as doctors are caused by the food we eat, or don't eat, and can be reversed with dietary changes with a specific diet; the carnivore diet. We discuss the following: All about Dr. Anthony Chaffee Thoughts on carbs for optimal health Fasting metabolism Liver glycogen Diabetics on a ketogenic diet Thoughts on honey Fruits and seeds Thoughts on introducing fructose to meat-only diet Dopamine addiction Fructose as one of the worst drugs on earth Fruit and honey as part of the diet Fructose for optimal health Thoughts on carbohydrates and sugars for thyroid Thoughts on nose to tail Fructose in orange juice Fructose for diabetics Fructose blocks leptin Red meat diet improves testosterone and estrogen levels Atherosclerosis Thoughts on eating meat-only long term Artificial sweeteners Recommended fats for the carnivore diet Stool Thoughts on triglycerides Tips on how to deal with information and misinformation Where to find Dr. Anthony Chaffee ____ RESOURCES Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/AnthonyChaffeeMD YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCzoRyR_nlesKZuOlEjWRXQQ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@PlantFreeMD The Plant Free MD Podcast: https://spoti.fi/3sbFm2T LinkTree: https://linktr.ee/DrChaffeeMD ____ CHECK OUT MY BOOK, Carnivore Cure SIGN UP FOR MY WEEKLY NEWSLETTER _____ ADDITIONAL RESOURCES Nutrition with Judy Articles Nutrition with Judy Resources Cutting Against the Grain Podcast _____ FIND ME 🌎 Website 📺 YouTube 🏞 Instagram 👤 Facebook _____ **DISCLAIMER: I am only here to provide support as a nutritional therapy practitioner and I am not providing medical advice.
