Ep 6. What Do Vegans and Carnivores Have in Common? With Brian Sanders

from Hi Energy Life · host Alex and Karli Klintworth

What Losing His Parents Taught Brian Sanders About Food, Health, and PurposeBrian Sanders didn't stumble into the health world — he was pushed there by grief. After losing both of his parents to chronic disease, the UCLA-trained mechanical engineer turned filmmaker set out to answer a question that haunted him: what are we actually supposed to eat? The result was the Peak Human podcast, now one of the top-ranked nutrition shows in the world, and the upcoming documentary Food Lies.In this conversation, Brian opens up about the personal losses that sparked his mission, what it was like to build an audience from scratch, and how his own dietary thinking has evolved — from animal-based keto to a deeper focus on nutrient density and ancestral eating principles. It's a candid and wide-ranging conversation about health, purpose, and what it really means to nourish yourself well.Connect with Brian Sanders:🌐 Website: peak-human.com🎙️ Podcast (Apple): Peak Human on Apple Podcasts🎧 Podcast (Spotify): Peak Human on Spotify📸 Instagram: @food.lies🎬 Documentary: foodlies.org▶️ YouTube: Food Lies on YouTube
