It seems like there’s always a new diet to try… the keto diet, the carnivore diet, different types of fasting… the list goes on.
The question is, how do we know if any of them are actually good for us?
What is the Carnivore Diet?
Today’s episode should answer a lot of questions. My guest Dr. Anthony Gustin is a board-certified sports physician, a functional medicine practitioner, and an overall food and fitness skeptic like I am. His focus recently has shifted from private practice to starting his own company, Perfect Keto and Equip.
Dr. Gustin’s mission is to create products that improve the accessibility of whole food nutrition and ketosis, and he’s the perfect person to explain a little bit more about the carnivore diet, how it works, and if it’s right for you.
Episode Highlights

why not to follow one diet for too long
the best way to fast for women
how to do the keto diet correctly
which diets have their place in a healthy lifestyle
what the carnivore diet is

and more!
