Welcome to the Dr. Gabriel Lion Show, where I believe a healthy world is based on transparent conversations.

In today's episode of the Dr. Gabriel Lion Show, I sit down with Dr. Peter Ballerstead. We discuss the importance of ruminants

on people and the planet. Ruminants are those animals included like cows, sheep, goats.

We discuss how protein is calculated in plant products and what does the impact of these calculations on you as the consumer?

We also discuss how Peter makes sense of the dietary guidelines and what he actually believes

you should be doing for your own health and wellness. Dr. Peter Ballerstead earned his bachelor's and master's degree at the

University of Georgia and his doctorate at the University of Kentucky. He was the Forge Extension

Specialist at Oregon State University. Peter is the current president of the American Forge and Grassland Council. What makes his

perspective so unique is that he has re-examined the human diet and its impact on health. What he has

learned doesn't agree with the advice given for the past several decades. Peter is an advocate for ruminant animal

agriculture and the essential role of animal source foods in the human diet. He strives to

build bridges between producers, consumers, and researchers across a wide variety of scientific disciplines.

Thank you to Paleo Valley for sponsoring this episode of the show.

I love that they sponsored this episode of the show because their beef sticks are absolutely

amazing. And when we talk about ruminants, we are definitely talking about beef. Pileo Valley

makes some of the best tasting fermented 100, 100% grass-fed, grass-finished

beef sticks on the market. They use beef sourced from small domestic farms in the U.S.

They use organic spices to flavor these beef sticks. Everything that they have and they use is non-GMO.
