Peak Human - Unbiased Nutrition Info for Optimum Health, Fitness & Living


Mar 25, 2020

Hello, hello everyone! I hope everyone is staying safe and properly sequestering themselves in their own homes. The big thing I’m focusing on and I hope other people are as well, is keeping myself healthy and productive. We can make this into a vacation and mess around and eat bread and desserts and get all fat and sassy. Or we can use this time to cook delicious, healthy meals and do home workouts. We can get things done on to-do lists that have been sitting around for months, or we can watch Netflix. I’m having moments of pure unproductivity but I snap out of it and am actually taking care of things that have fallen to the wayside and feel pretty good about it. Hopefully everyone listening is staying motivated and optimistic and making the best of this situation. You certainly have the power to do so - it’s up to you.

I did this podcast with my new friend Dr. Aseem Malhotra a couple weeks ago and think he has some great info to share. He’s doing some great things out there across the pond. I just posted a video he sent me of him on a news program talking about how important it is to stay metabolically healthy in these crazy times. Underlying metabolic disease such as obesity, hypertension, and type 2 diabetes are huge risk factors with coronavirus. Luckily everyone listening is probably very metabolically healthy or on a journey towards that.

Dr. Aseem Malhotra is becoming one of the most influential cardiologists in Britain and a world leading expert in the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of heart disease. He is successfully leading the campaign against excessive sugar consumption. The award-winning NHS cardiologist has successfully motivated leading academics, the media and politicians to make sugar reduction a health priority in the UK by publishing commentaries in the BMJ and mainstream media. He also created the film The Big Fat Fix with Donal O’Neil.

We’ll be putting a limited number of Nose to Tail boxes on http://nosetotail.org thursday. We weren't ready for this rush of orders but got everything shipped out to those who ordered in the past 2 days. We’re ramping things up and should have more and more meat as the weeks roll on.

The Sapien Program is coming soon so be ready! Make sure you’re subscribed to the newsletter on http://Sapien.org

Other than that just make sure to rate this show on iTunes or the podcast app, start back at episode 1, share with a friend, and support the show on Patreon. I continually turn down sponsors to the show and am leaving a lot of money on the table. I really want to not have any affiliation with advertisers even if they have good products. I think everyone can agree this would be better. This only works if people support the show. 

And on that note, let’s get to it. Here’s Dr. Aseem Malhotra
