Low Carb MD Podcast Dr. Brian Lenzkes & Dr. Tro

Thank you for joining us for another episode of the Low Carb MD Podcast. Eric Edmeades is a serial entrepreneur with experience including wireless networking, military research, Hollywood film production, and award-winning and life-saving medical simulation. Today, Eric is a leading authority in Behavioral Change Dynamics. Eric has created and consulted on some of the most effective, transformative, and highly rated educational products and live events in the world. Eric is often referred to as the “Indiana Jones” of the professional speaker world because of his love of the African bush and his extensive visits with various tribes in Africa. In 2007 Eric established a friendship with the Hadza people — one of the last truly hunter/gatherer tribes left on earth and has visited them frequently over the last 10 years.
In their conversation, Tro and Eric talk about the lifestyle and dietary habits of the Hadza tribe, the primary dietary predictors of disease and obesity, the natural impulse to seek out sweet foods, the social food culture of the Hadza tribe, the way that food companies play on this impulse to effect your diet, and Eric’s work in nutritional anthropology.
