Ancestral Diet

21- How To Begin Eating an Ancestral Diet


In our last podcast episode, Dr. Al Danenberg talked a lot about how he has integrated an Ancestral Diet into the way he practices Periodontics. He has noticed a huge increase in health changes in his own life by changing his diet, and recognizes the importance of that in overall health and oral health. With that episode, we received a lot of questions on how to actually start an ancestral diet, and what that diet looks like compared to other diets that are out there.

This is a very good question- what is an ancestral diet, and how can we incorporate that into a more modern lifestyle, without having to wear a loin cloth and hunt with a spear. We talk all about these types of foods and how to transition into in in thisepisode of How to Begin Eating an Ancestral Diet!
