What if a popular health trend is actually harming your gut?

Dr. Katie Deming speaks with Monica Corrado, known as "The GAPS Chef" and a leading expert in traditional cooking techniques. She helps us understand the foundations of eating for both physical and neurological wellbeing.
You'll discover why our bodies need far more animal fat than most of us consume, and how the plant-based approach many follow for cancer healing might be missing critical building blocks for recovery.
Chapters:
00:06:17 - Meat stock vs. bone broth
00:12:04 - Fat, brain health, and your hormones
00:29:57 - The vegan diet and cancer
00:42:02 - GAPS diet and gut healing
00:56:43 - Why food quality and mindful eating matter
Dr. Deming and Monica explore how modern eating habits have disconnected us from the traditional foods that nourished our ancestors. They discuss why healthy fat is essential for nervous system regulation, why our bodies are designed to eat meat, and how plants serve as cleansers rather than builders in our diet.
Listen and learn why a stick of butter a day might be just what your body needs and how to prepare foods that heal rather than harm.
