Episode description
Story at-a-glance
- Our ancestors maintained better health naturally through their lifestyle, which included nutrient-dense whole foods, physical activity, and living in harmony with nature
- Traditional diets emphasized whole-animal consumption, including organ meats and bone broths. They also incorporated saturated fats and seasonal fruits and vegetables
- Daily physical activity was inherent in historical lifestyles through manual labor and outdoor work. This resulted in higher metabolic rates compared to today's sedentary patterns
- Past generations had minimal exposure to environmental toxins, synthetic chemicals, and other pollutants that are now common in food, water, and everyday products
- Natural light and rest patterns followed the sun's cycles, which supported proper melatonin production and sleep cycles. There were no disruptions from blue light and electromagnetic fields
