  • Life Changing Information, Too Many Ads

    First, let me say that I love this podcast and Dr Chaffee’s information and delivery with the heat of a thousand suns. He has changed my life, and those that I recommend it to.

    Having said that, I think he’d be horrified if he listened to the audio podcast version and saw how many ads were being inserted into each episode.

    I certainly don’t mind him grabbing his bag, but it frankly just got ridiculous. I wish him the best and hope he will keep doing this until he reaches his goal age of 120 :)... more

  • He’s helped me

    He’s helped me. I’m a newcomer and only been carnivore strictly speaking for about a month. My blood sugars no longer spike nor drop. They are even keel. I’ve lost about 15 lbs without really trying. I eat till I’m full and there is no need to snack in between because I stay full longer. Seems like I’m eating a ton of food at one sitting but I’m only eating meat and/or eggs. When I lift weights I listen to his podcast and that motivates. I love to hear about all the success stories of people rev... more

  • It was all going well until…

    Followed him and recommended him. Truly believed he has important things to impart to the world. The mistake was when he started bringing politics into a discussion of diet. Much like when Dr Baker decided to tell me how to vote - this is something I won’t put up with. Do not quote RFK Jr to me. It makes you every bit as bad as vegan extremists at the other end of the spectrum.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Episode 347: You Don't Need Carbs To Build Muscle | Dr Nash Jocic
Q: What about the idea that you can't build muscle without carbs? Is there evidence against this?
Yes. The guest cites cases and studies showing similar hypertrophy on ketogenic diets when protein is matched, and explains how insulin from carbs is not the sole driver of muscle growth, with emphasis on protein intake, training volume, and the potential detrimental effects of excessive glycation from high carb intakes over time.
Episode 346: She Ate ONLY ONE Food and REVERSED Her Parkinson's! | Mimi Morgan
Q: How did you experience the turning point in your recovery?
Recovery began with strict dietary changes and high-fat, low-carb eating, followed by consistent exercise, sleep improvements, and gradual de-prescribing, ultimately leading to a substantial reduction in medications after about a year and a half.
Episode 337: The Toxins In Our Daily Environment Destroying Our Hormones and Development | Dr Anthony Jay
Q: What are some of the hormonal disrupting factors that we should be worried about?
There are many estrogen-mimicking chemicals, such as BPA and phthalates, that disrupt hormone balance.
Episode 333: Carnivore Q&A with Dr Anthony Chaffee | Jan 12, 2026
Q: Can a carnivore diet help with hyperparathyroidism?
It may help, particularly with optimizing vitamin D3 and K2, but the effectiveness can vary based on the underlying causes.
Episode 333: Carnivore Q&A with Dr Anthony Chaffee | Jan 12, 2026
Q: Do I need to worry about getting enough omega-3s if I'm eating mainly conventional beef?
Yes, you might get less omega-3s from grain-finished beef and should consider seeking out better fat sources.
