Summary

Are plant defense chemicals real? Are they a problem for humans? Paul addresses these questions in today’s podcast along with why he believes they are harmful for many people at a molecular level.

A note from Paul: Throughout my training and practice as a physician I have come to one very disappointing conclusion: Western medicine isn’t helping people lead better lives. Now that I’ve realized this, I’ve become obsessed with understanding what makes us healthy or ill. I want to live the best life I can and I want to be able to share this knowledge with others so that they can do the same. This podcast is the result of my relentless search to understand the roots of chronic disease. If you want to know how to live the most radical life possible I hope you’ll join me on this journey.

0:00.0	I think that if you look at the literature, there is no clear signal that vegetables are good for humans.
0:06.8	See you later, Sniffles. Check out this review on a munimilk from Heart and Soil Supplements from Brad.
0:12.8	Every summer I have suffered from allergies and exacerbation of my asthma. Normally, I am loaded up on daily
0:17.8	decongestions, corticosteroids, and antihistamines. I began taking a munimilk about six months ago,
0:22.7	and I am nothing but impressed. This summer, I have rarely needed a tissue, let alone a pharmacy worth
0:28.2	the medications. I am so happy to have a natural way to feel better. I'm stoked for how it's
0:32.8	feeling better. Munimilk is our grass-fed, grass-finished, regeneratively-mazed colostrum,
0:38.4	which is rich in immunoglobulins, immune factors, also rich in IGF1, which helps with recovery and
0:43.9	muscle growth. It can help with gut health, repair of the gut, and overall allergies. It's an
0:49.3	amazingly powerful thing that I think is underutilized. This is one of our best-kept secrets that more
0:54.7	people could benefit from at Heart and Soil, so you can find us at HeartandSoil.co. I take a
1:00.3	munimilk after a hard day of surfing. It really helps with my recovery. I also want to give a shout-out
1:04.9	to the fact that we have the Kale's Bullshit shirts are in the store now. Go to Kale's Bullshit.shop.
1:11.4	We also have a shirt that says, Seed oil is a Bullshit, and a hoodie, and a hat, and an old school
1:16.4	stay radical shirt, and a carnivore M.D. shirt. That looks like something your dad would wear, but it's
1:20.8	a more professional type of carnivore M.D. shirt. Ribbys agreeing with me out the window. He's
1:26.2	barking at something. So Kale's Bullshit.shop to get the merch. We need to spread the message that Kale
1:30.8	is Bullshit, which is what you'll hear in this podcast about plant-defense chemicals. Seed oil's
1:34.5	a Bullshit. You guys know that. So in this podcast, I talk about plant-defense chemicals. It's been
1:38.8	a lot of discussion about these recently and the notion that they're just benign for humans,
1:42.4	they're hermetics. I disagree strongly, respectfully, but strongly, and I make the case for that
1:48.5	argument in this podcast. I think you'll enjoy it. I talk about whether they're real, where they're
