When it comes to figuring out what an optimal diet and lifestyle is for you, it becomes evident that our approach to what is optimal for each of us is radically different, which means we have to let go of the notion that any specific diet is better than the other.\nDr. Jonathan Reisman is not your average ER doctor. He has one of the most unique perspectives on health, diet, and human anatomy influenced by his love of travel and nature. He doesn\u2019t shy away from the unsettling aspects of life, but approaches it all with reverence and curiosity. He\u2019s also the author of The Unseen Body, a fascinating book I highly recommend.\n\u201cI\u2019m very skeptical about what doctors have to say about nutrition.\u201d -Jonathan Reisman\nIn the first part of this 2 part episode, we get deep in the weeds of the ongoing debate between carnivores and vegans. Is one diet better than the other for our optimal health, or is your gut and environment the best indication of what\u2019s best for you?\n\nUnique Perspectives from Jonathan:\n\u201cThe adaptability of the gastrointestinal tract is important, [...] our gastrointestinal tract does not look like a pure carnivore\u2019s tract, it also doesn't look like a pure herbivore\u2019s tract, so I think we are probably meant to be omnivores.\u201d\n\u201cVariability is a really important thing.\u201d\n\u201cNutritional science through headlines is a very bad way to understand what\u2019s good and what\u2019s bad for us.\u201d\n\nFollow Jonathan Reisman:\xa0\nWebsite: https://www.jonathanreisman.com/\xa0\nSubstack: https://jonathanreisman.substack.com/\xa0\nTwitter: https://twitter.com/jonreismanMD\xa0\nInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/jonreismanmd/\xa0\n\nSPONSORS:\nGet 5 free AG1 Travel Packs and a FREE 1 year supply of Vitamin D with your first purchase at https://bit.ly/AG1Impact.\nGet $300 into your brokerage account when you invest $5k within your first 90 days by going to https://bit.ly/FacetImpact.\nHead to www.insidetracker.com and use code \u201cIMPACTTHEORY\u201d to get 20% off!\nSign up for a one-dollar-per-month trial period at https://bit.ly/ShopifyImpact.\n\nAre You Ready for EXTRA Impact?\nIf you\u2019re ready to find true fulfillment, strengthen your focus, and ignite your true potential, the Impact Theory subscription was created just for you.\nWant to transform your health, sharpen your mindset, improve your relationship, or conquer the business world?
