2:48. We learned just how toxic plants were. I was taking botany. I was taking cancer biology and this was how plants defend themselves. They defend themselves by having defense chemicals that deter animals and insects from eating them. We learned that there were 136 carcinogens just in Brussels sprouts, over 100 in mushrooms, dozens and other vegetables that we eat on a daily basis.
My professor at the time was very much against eating plants we were quite surprised by this. But he even said himself that he didn't need salad. He didn't eat vegetables. He didn't let his kids eat vegetables, and the plants were trying to kill you.
3:27. So I just stopped eating plants. At that point, I didn't even realize it but I was eating a carnivore diet at the time [yes, a plant-free diet], and I felt absolutely amazing. My athletic performance just went through the roof. My mental acuity and sharpness got razor honed, and I just felt amazing. I ended up slipping off of it because I didn't realize how significant what I was doing was. That over the last several years I have come across information that says humans have been carnivores for quite a long time and that biologically+ we're most adapted to that or predisposed to that and we don't have these set up defenses against all the plant toxins then we probably used to have millions of years ago.
Get fattier grades of burger meat from the butcher, 70/30, 60/40, even 50/50. Now that's the ticket.
