BRIAN SANDERS - FILMMAKER OF FOOD LIES & HEALTH COACH
About this episode

Hi Everyone, I’m Brian Sanders, and I’m making a feature length documentary called Food Lies which is about the sordid history of our dietary guidelines, the epidemic of chronic disease and obesity that followed, what the new science is telling us humans should actually be eating, and how to eat that food sustainably.

As I make the film, I’m talking to a bunch of experts who have graciously lent me their time to create this podcast. Actually, you can think of this as a free audio course on nutrition - all without ads. I’m doing this to support the Food Lies film which is now crowdfunding on Indiegogo.com.

Over the next 13 episodes you’ll hear from some of the top experts in their field, specifically chosen to cover all areas of this complicated subject. There’s so much conflicting health information out there, it’s almost impossible to know who and what to believe. I quit my job and have spent the past year researching it from all sides, even veganism, and this audio series provides an overview.

By the end, all the confusion around health and what we should eat should make sense. You’ll learn so much more of the science behind this all, like the real deal with cholesterol and saturated fat, how to prevent cancer and diseases, if carbohydrates can be part of a healthy diet, and how ruminants like cows are essential for the health and future of the soil and environment

The first part of the season includes these amazing doctors, researchers, and journalists:

  • Professor Tim Noakes
  • Dr. Ted Naiman
  • Dr. Zoe Harcombe
  • Gary Taubes
  • Dr. Dom D’Agostino
  • Denise Minger
  • Dr. Shawn Baker
  • Amy Berger
  • Peter Ballerstedt
  • And more to come

There’s so much awesome information in this audio series, I can’t wait to share it with everyone. So please subscribe now wherever you get your podcasts.

You're probably wondering “So who’s this Brian guy?” by now. Well, first of all, I’ve been a filmmaker since middle school. I’ve also built and sold a tech company, worked as a mechanical engineer, and now, I’ve quit my job to devote the rest of my life to this cause. I’ve read dozens of books, watched dozens of films, watched hundreds of lectures and presentations, and listened to over a thousand hours of podcast episodes on this subject.

I’ve looked at all the different approaches and figured out what the common truths are and what’s BS. I now understand the unifying theory of nutrition that pulls together all sides - from Paleo to Vegan. Nobody is really talking about this - everyone is too busy being blinded by their tribe.

I’ve also put this research into practice, and now, at age 35, I’m in the best shape of my life. My vitals and blood work are flawless and I haven’t been sick in 3 years. The same goes for countless family and friends, as well as millions around the world. I’m so excited to share this all with you.

Once again, the film is called Food Lies and we’re crowdfunding now on Indiegogo.com. Please support us and preorder a copy the film. We also have tons of great rewards like the limited edition Real Foods challenge coin. Also don’t forget to subscribe to this podcast as the episodes will be airing soon.
