Dr Sabrina Solt: Peptides, Hormones, & Stem Cells: Hype or Hope?

Dr. Sabrina Solt joins me for a fascinating conversation on the cutting edge of healing, regeneration, and hormone health.

We also discuss the carnivore diet, nutrient density, chronic stress, GLP-1 medications, women’s health, and what modern medicine may still be missing when it comes to helping people truly heal from within. Whether you’re curious about peptides, struggling with fatigue, interested in stem cells, or simply trying to optimize your health, this episode is packed with practical insights and thought-provoking conversation.

Celebrity Chef James Barry Exposes the Biggest Food Problem

Celebrity chef and founder of Pluck, James Barry, joins me for a fascinating conversation about nutrient density, organ meats, modern nutrition, and the missing pieces in today’s food culture. After spending over 20 years cooking for celebrities, professional athletes, and high-profile clients, James shares what he learned about health, real food, and why so many people are still undernourished despite eating “healthy.” We also dive into the deeply personal story involving his daughter’s health crisis and how that experience completely changed the trajectory of his life and career. From there, we explore why organ meats were prized by our ancestors, the nutritional gaps in modern diets, and practical ways people can incorporate more nutrient-dense foods without forcing themselves to choke down liver. This episode covers nose-to-tail nutrition, carnivore-adjacent eating, food quality, cravings, micronutrients, and why your body may be asking for more than just calories. James also explains the philosophy behind Pluck and why seasoning with organ meats might be one of the easiest ways to upgrade your nutrition. Topics Discussed: • Organ meats & nutrient density • Nose-to-tail nutrition • Modern nutrient deficiencies • Food quality & cravings • Celebrity chef insights • James Barry’s daughter’s health journey • Carnivore & ancestral nutrition • How to eat more organs easily • The philosophy behind Pluck • Why “healthy eating” still fails people Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/chefjamesbarry/ [https://www.instagram.com/chefjamesbarry/] Website: https://eatpluck.com/ [https://eatpluck.com/] Everyday Ancestral with James Barry on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@UC7XF0-HKj3y7c_O-2uoRpfg [https://www.youtube.com/@UC7XF0-HKj3y7c_O-2uoRpfg ] Everyday Ancestral with James Barry on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/60v6ZOabgiJOeW9kjYIf9i [https://open.spotify.com/show/60v6ZOabgiJOeW9kjYIf9i] ORDER MY BOOK COMPLETE CARNIVORE: Amazon: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://amzn.to/4oFNsgj⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://amzn.to/4oFNsgj] B&N: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/complete-carnivore-jenny-mitich/1146838850?ean=9781628605761&st=AFF&2sid=Random%20House%20Inc_8373827_NA&sourceId=AFFRandom%20House%20Inc⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/complete-carnivore-jenny-mitich/1146838850?ean=9781628605761&st=AFF&2sid=Random%20House%20Inc_8373827_NA&sourceId=AFFRandom%20House%20Inc] For international viewers: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://blackwells.co.uk/bookshop/product/Complete-Carnivore-by-Jenny-Mitich/9781628605761⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://blackwells.co.uk/bookshop/product/Complete-Carnivore-by-Jenny-Mitich/9781628605761]

The Truth About Parasites, Iodine, and Liver Cleanses (No One Tells You This) with Sara Banta

In this episode of Meat Matters, I sit down with Sara Banta to talk about some of the most misunderstood topics in health right now: iodine, liver cleansing, parasites, and why so many people still feel unwell even when they’re eating better. We get into the iodine and Hashimoto’s debate, how iodine interacts with the thyroid, and why toxin exposure from things like fluoride, bromide, and chlorine may matter more than most people realize. We also talk about liver health, what a liver cleanse is meant to do, and how sluggish detox pathways can affect fat loss, digestion, and energy. We also discuss parasites, common symptoms people may overlook, and how parasite cleansing fits into the bigger picture of gut health and detoxification. If you’ve been dealing with fatigue, bloating, brain fog, thyroid issues, or stubborn weight loss, this is a fascinating conversation that connects a lot of dots.

Carnivore JT Exposes the Biggest Lies About Protein, LDL, and Health

In this episode, I sit down with Carnivore JT to break down the biggest lie in nutrition — especially the ones athletes still believe. We dig into why carb loading is garbage, how athletes have been misled about protein intake, and why fear around LDL cholesterol continues to dominate nutrition advice despite weak evidence. Carnivore JT explains how health misinformation became mainstream, why conventional nutrition dogma fails athletes, and how the carnivore diet reframes metabolic health, performance, and recovery. We also dive into the often-ignored connection between diet and mental health, why ultra-processed foods quietly destroy healthspan, and how removing dietary noise can lead to better energy, focus, and long-term results. If you’ve ever questioned athlete nutrition guidelines, cholesterol panic, or the obsession with carbs, this conversation will challenge everything you’ve been told. This episode is for: * Athletes questioning carb loading * Anyone confused about protein intake * People worried about LDL cholesterol * Those struggling with mental health and energy * Anyone tired of nutrition misinformation Topics covered: * Why carb loading doesn’t work for athletes * Protein myths and optimal protein intake * LDL cholesterol and why it’s misunderstood * Carnivore diet and metabolic health * Nutrition misinformation in modern medicine * Diet, mental health, and performance If you’re looking for real conversations about nutrition, health, and performance — without the dogma — you’re in the right place. 👉 Subscribe for more discussions on carnivore diet, metabolic health, cholesterol myths, and athlete nutrition.
