Welcome to Jack Canfield Podcast. I'm Jack Canfield, and I'm thrilled to welcome you to today's episode of the Jack Canfield podcast. Joining me today is not only a dear friend but also a forward-thinker in the realms of health and human potential, Eric Edmeades. Eric is a trailblazer in the emerging Food Revolution, dedicated to empowering individuals to seize control of their well-being. Today, Eric is here to discuss his latest publication, "Post Diabetic," freshly launched last month, which promises to be yet another invaluable resource, steering readers toward vibrant health. His book draws upon his extensive knowledge of evolutionary biology and human nutrition, tracing his journey from his renowned Wild Fit program. In this episode Eric talks about how his health transformation inspired him to study nutrition and human evolution. He also emphasizes eating a diet focused on seasonal, whole foods like our ancestors ate, rather than restrictive diets. Some key points included understanding why we eat emotionally, the importance of meeting nutritional needs over avoidance, and how humans are adapted to survive seasonal fluctuations through metabolic flexibility. He also discusses challenges in spreading this message due to the influences of the pharmaceutical industry. 🎯Inside the episode you will learn about: Pharmaceutical Influence on Psychiatry: Eric shares a story about disagreeing with his girlfriend's father, a pharmaceutical psychiatrist, over the ratio of necessary vs unnecessary drug prescriptions.
