After struggling with severe health issues including dangerously high triglycerides, this MD found healing through an unlikely source: an all-meat diet. Now he's advocating for his predominantly vegetarian patients to consider a radical dietary shift. We explore his personal transformation, the surge of young Indians experiencing cardiovascular events, and the little-known history of vegetarianism in India. Whether you agree or disagree, this conversation offers a provocative perspective on the relationship between traditional diets, colonial influence, and modern health crises. ------- Dr. Verma's latest podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/2RoGJHoXkVE1myjHG1Yn6O?si=vJM66KbHSCSbdhT_TM5Plg&nd=1&dlsi=10e62d46dce84786 Dr. Verma's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thecarnivore.ep ------------ Related content: 1) Dr. Manoshi Bhattacharya on Famine cuisine: https://youtu.be/gQIRmpbYfoI 2) Dr. BR Ambedkar's Annihilation of Caste: https://youtu.be/QUFtjSO_KB8 Chapters: 00:00 Introduction 02:49 Dr. Verma's Story 11:20 Morality and religion 16:20 Kidney stones 20:40 Heart disease 25:16 Markers of metabolic health 29:21 Is it possible to eat meat in India? 31:30 B12 deficiency 35:29 Troubleshooting 37:02 Digestion 41:27 Gall stones? 44:06 Eggs and public health 46:34 India is not healthy
