234:  I am excited to welcome Paul Saladino to the podcast, as this conversation was long overdue. We recorded while we were both in Washington, D.C., for the Make America Healthy Again ball, and I’m so excited to share it with you. Paul is a wealth of knowledge when it comes to nutrition and preventative health, and I’ve been following his work for years.  In this episode, we take a deep dive into cholesterol myths, the role of saturated fat, and how metabolic dysfunction—not cholesterol—is the real issue. Paul shares a fascinating analogy that helped me fully grasp these concepts. We also discuss the benefits of an animal-based diet, the history and controversy around raw milk, and the broader implications of nutrition policy and education.  Topics Discussed:  Raw vs. pasteurized milk  The role of saturated fat in health  Cholesterol myths and metabolic dysfunction  Pharma companies, statins, and LDL levels  Meat consumption and heart disease  Fasting insulin and ancestral diets  Food deserts and nutrition policy  Calorie counting and eating disorders  Stay tuned for part two!!! Sponsored ByMANUKORA Go to Manukora.com/REALFOODOLOGY to get $25 off the Starter Kit, which comes with an MGO 850+ Manuka Honey jar, 5 honey travel sticks, a wooden spoon, and a guidebook! LMNTGet your free Sample Pack with any LMNT drink mix purchase at drinklmnt.com/realfoodologyOur PlaceUse code REALFOODOLOGY for 10% off at fromourplace.comBIOptimizers For an exclusive offer go to bioptimizers.com/realfoodology and use promo code REALFOODOLOGY PaleovalleySave at 15% at paleovalley.com/realfoodology and use code REALFOODOLOGYGrazaHead to Graza.co and use REALFOODOLOGY to get 10% off of TRIO which includes Sizzle, Frizzle and Drizzle, and get to cookin’ your next chef-quality meal!Timestamps:Check Out Paul:WebsiteInstagramYoutubeCheck Out Courtney:LEAVE US A VOICE MESSAGECheck Out My new FREE Grocery Guide!@realfoodologywww.realfoodology.comMy Immune Supplement by 2x4Air Dr Air PurifierAquaTru Water FilterEWG Tap Water DatabaseProduced By: Drake Peterson
