In this ancestral nutrition episode, I sit down with James Barry — celebrity chef turned organ meat evangelist who's cooked for Tom Cruise, Gerard Butler, and Barbara Streisand — to expose why your "clean eating" obsession is keeping you inflamed, exhausted, and nutritionally bankrupt. From revealing how he helped actresses shed baby weight without diets to explaining why your body will never lie to you about what it needs, James destroys the myths around modern nutrition and shows you how to reclaim your health through the foods your ancestors thrived on. Whether you're a burnt-out professional living on delivery apps and protein bars, a health-conscious parent confused by conflicting nutrition advice, or someone who thinks organ meats are "too extreme," this conversation will revolutionize how you think about food and show you that real health comes from embracing what nature intended. What we cover: ✔️ The celebrity chef origin story: cooking for Tom Cruise and the coconut oil crispy chicken ✔️ Why ultra-processed foods are destroying your body's communication system ✔️ The meal planning revolution: treating your health plan like your business plan ✔️ Real food vs. shelf-stable food: why grocery stores prioritize profits over nutrition ✔️ The burnout-to-health pipeline: how overwork leads to weight gain and lost creativity ✔️ Mindful eating manifesto: why screens are sabotaging your digestion ✔️ The two-week palate reset: recalibrating your taste buds from sweet and salty ✔️ Organ meat initiation: starting with chicken hearts and grated frozen liver ✔️ The Pluck seasoning breakthrough: freeze-dried organs as nature's multivitamin ✔️ Brain food revelation: why lamb's brains taste like melted butter (and boost concentration) ✔️ The neuro-lingo response: letting your body tell you what it needs James doesn't just cook healthy food. He proves that with ancestral wisdom and real ingredients, you can reclaim the vitality that modern processed diets have stolen from you.
