Paul Saladino, MD: Quits A 100% Carnivore Diet, Cholesterol Impacts and Value of Insulin | TUH #044

About this video

Brecka interviews physician Paul Saladino about his evolution from raw veganism, to strict carnivore eating, to a more flexible animal-based approach that includes some fruit carbohydrates. Saladino states that long-term strict ketosis caused problems for him, argues that seed oils, added sugars and misleading food labels are major dietary harms, and challenges the view that ApoB alone causes atherosclerosis, claiming endothelial damage and insulin resistance are the initiating factors. Both speakers argue health is a birthright that returns when living aligns with ancestral patterns.

Key takeaways

• Saladino states his diet philosophy changed after problems with long-term strict carnivore and ketosis.
• Saladino argues insulin sensitivity and endothelial damage, not ApoB alone, drive arterial disease.
• Saladino claims label reading matters because oils and sugars are hidden in processed foods.
• Brecka and Saladino present vitality as the body’s natural baseline rather than an achievement.
