I think plastics are the coming storm for humans. It looks like a condom.
**Patrick Bet-David** (0:03)
So we're drinking water out of a condom.
**Paul Saladino** (0:04)
This is also a condom on the inside. You can use sodium hydroxide and dissolve the aluminum, and there's a condom on the inside of this can.
They can carry, like a Trojan horse, BPA, endocrine disruptor. Reducing our exposure to plastic is probably one of the single most important things we could do in our lives.

Charles Barkley, he's lost 85 pounds. Is he better off using GLP-1?
**Paul Saladino** (0:29)
One of the first issues I have with these GLPs is you're probably on them for life. The thing about these medications is they can increase suicidality. When you mess with neurotransmitters in the brain, it's very powerful.
**Patrick Bet-David** (0:41)
He's about to take all these pills in his mouth. I held it. I took the bottles away from him. He's like, Pat, I'm begging you, please. I got to take it. You don't know how much pain I'm in right now.

I have seen so many people reverse depression without medications by returning to high quality foods.
**Patrick Bet-David** (0:55)
Why do we get so fat in America?
**Paul Saladino** (0:57)
We are eating this tainted food that is full of all these ingredients that no one can pronounce. These food ingredients are literally poisoning our brains.
**Patrick Bet-David** (1:05)
So you got all these maxing, balls maxing.
**Paul Saladino** (1:08)
So if we want to look max, we just really need to return to the way that humans have eaten. Clavicular, I actually met Clavicular. It was just painful. It's definitely hurting him long term. He's not optimizing for longevity or health.

I've never seen this before. Biohacker Brian Johnson makes shocking reveal about his girlfriend's Vagina being the top 1%.
**Paul Saladino** (1:27)
I've met Kate and Brian and they basically said, we want to do everything for attention we possibly can. I get it. This is an attention economy. What is Kate doing that's improving the hervaginal microbiome?
It's not eating garbage food. This is honey from my house. This is not a hallucinogenic honey. I wouldn't do that to you.
**Patrick Bet-David** (1:48)
Starting to see unicorns.
**Paul Saladino** (1:53)
They complement the muscle meat.
**Patrick Bet-David** (1:55)
When do we start eating hard, organ testicles that you're talking about? When do we stop eating it? Because in Iran, we eat that kind of stuff.
**Paul Saladino** (2:00)
Exactly. It's a western thing. It's the United States. I went to Tanzania a few years ago and spent time with the Hadza. They're near Lake Yasi. They're some of the last hunter gatherers left on the planet. It's like something out of a different video game. They're literally living in these thatched huts. They make their own bows and arrows. I got to hunt with them. We went and we hunted a baboon. They killed a baboon. They have to kill these baboons because this is all they have to eat.
The first thing we do when they kill the baboon successfully with their own hands and the arrows and knives that they've essentially made themselves, is you throw it on the fire, you burn off the hair, and we eat the organs. They're passing around liver, pancreas, kidneys, heart. They're eating the whole thing. The next morning-
They're cooking it, they're cooking it on the fire. The next morning, the hunter whose blow kind of killed the baboon offers me the head. It's like the scene, you ever seen that movie, Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom? Where they crack open the- It was like that. It was a cooked baboon brain. He goes, here, you want some? And this is the moment, Pat. This is like the decision point. You're like, okay, yes, I'm doing it. I'm in Tanzania with a Hadza tribesman. I'm eating baboon brain.

Was anything disgusting?
**Paul Saladino** (3:08)
I think it was all amazing.
**Patrick Bet-David** (3:10)
Okay.
**Paul Saladino** (3:10)
Yeah, but I mean, for a lot of us, it defends our Western sensibility. So I think in the last probably 100 years, especially in the West, in the United States specifically, so many ethnic traditions like yours eat the Oregon's, but we've totally forgotten.
**Patrick Bet-David** (3:24)
It was normal for us. Like when we came here, I'm like, I'm surprised more don't.
We ate liver like raw. Like I was telling you, we would go to this place in Iran called al-Bali. Al-Bali, and it was up in the mountains in Iran, and you'd go there and they would take the liver and they would cook it raw 10, 15 seconds and then put it in the bread, take it out, put some greens, put some salt. You'd eat it. It was so good. Till today, one of my favorite things to eat is liver, and I can't find many people that like eating liver.
