Dr. Anthony Chaffee, known as "the Carnivore Doctor," joins the podcast at the Shield documentary opening in the French Riviera to talk about women's health, autoimmune disease, and why he walked away from a path in neurosurgery.

Anthony shares how years of clinical practice led him to focus on root cause medicine instead of simply treating symptoms, and why he believes lectins in plants play a major role in autoimmune conditions like Crohn's, ulcerative colitis, and Hashimoto's. He breaks down the connection between carbohydrates, insulin, and hormonal imbalances in women, including how diet impacts conditions like PCOS and iron deficiency, and explains why low fiber intake on a carnivore diet often improves digestion rather than harming it.

The conversation also dives into cholesterol, exploring why Anthony believes the link between cholesterol and heart disease has never actually been proven, and how metabolic health markers tell a different story than LDL numbers alone. He and the host also discuss the financial incentives behind mainstream medical advice and why he sees his approach as a return to a more traditional form of medicine focused on curing disease rather than managing it.

Anthony Chaffee is a medical doctor, former neurosurgery specialist, and lifelong athlete who has treated thousands of patients using carnivore and ketogenic protocols to address the root causes of chronic and autoimmune disease.
