Dr. Al Danenberg: Beating Incurable Cancer With The Carnivore Diet And Other Routine Insights The B.rad Podcast

    • Fitness

Get ready for an inspiring, honest, emotional, and heartfelt show with Dr. Al Danenberg. 

Dr. Danenberg has been a periodontist in South Carolina for 44 years, dealing with gum and mouth disease, and appreciating the role of gut health as the centerpiece of healing and wellness. He is also one of the earliest certified Primal Health Coaches, and is considered a poster boy for ancestral living in the older age groups. However, Dr. Al’s health journey has come with some major ordeals that he will detail in this show. 

You’ll learn about the incredible transformation he experienced after switching to a Paleo diet at the age of 66. He explains that this total lifestyle change was actually a much needed and necessary method for healing as he walks us through the reasons that led to this change (having a stroke and later being diagnosed with cancer). He talks about watching weight drop off his body - to the point of 30-something pounds - over the course of two years, and how he was able to finally ditch the seven medications that his physicians had prescribed to him (not to mention claimed he needed to take for the rest of his life!). 

You’ll learn the unbelievable and inspiring story of how Dr. Al went from being diagnosed with cancer to being cancer-free. He explains his decision to say no to chemotherapy (which was insisted on by his doctor) and he clues us in on fascinating facts from many compelling studies that support the idea that a strict animal based diet, with no need for pharmaceutical drugs, is actually the most effective method of resolving chronic and cancerous health issues. Interestingly, he became intrigued by an animal based diet in early 2020 and has been following and advocating that strategy for over a year. Dr. Al does a great job of explaining the link between gut function and overall health (especially periodontal disease) and how eating an animal-based diet can help you heal from gut dysfunction that you may not even be aware of. 

The show ends with Dr. Al commenting on the 10 innovative health tips he himself follows to protect himself and continue to thrive. His bottom line is ultimately to put the most emphasis on having a robust immune system. Here is a great list he has generously shared of his top 10 health tips:

10 Health Tips From Dr. Al Danenberg

1. Eat a healthy diet: I follow my animal-based diet, which I call the Better Belly Blueprint. It is an organic, gluten-free, nutrient-dense, anti-inflammatory eating plan. I  consume a fat-to-protein ratio measured in grams of approximately 2:1 per meal. I eat when I’m hungry and drink when I’m thirsty. I occasionally eat some plants (no more  than 10% by volume of a plate of food) that are low in phytates, oxalates, and lectins. I  also cycle out of ketosis once a week by eating approximately 100 grams of carbs for  that one day to maintain my Metabolic Flexibility.

2. Fortify my gut and maintain an intact gut epithelial barrier: I take 2 caps of  MegasporeBiotic (from Microbiome Labs). I also take 2 caps of TerraFlora Deep  Immune, which also stimulates the production of interferons (IFNs) as well as activates downstream immune cells to support my immune system (from Enviromedica). 

3. Support my bone: I take 6 caps of OsteoVegan (from NuMedica), 2 caps of  Megaquinone K2-7 (from Microbiome Labs), and 5,000 IU of Vitamin D3 (from NatureWise).  

4. Help repair my mitochondria: I use PEMF (Pulsed Electromagnetic Field) Therapy  using the PureWave PEMF mat first thing in the morning for 30-minutes at setting “Basis – 1”, afternoon session for 30-minutes at setting “Basis – 5”, and at bedtime for  30-minutes at setting “Basis – 1”. 

5. Assure animal-based nutrients from organs for my cells: I take 5 caps of Desiccated  Organ Complex and 4 caps of Desiccated Bone Marrow (from Enviromedica). 

6. Control pain: I take 200 mg or 400 mg of ibuprofen rarely and only when necessary.
