The LLVLC Show (Episode 537): Paleo Blogger David Csonka From ‘Naturally Engineered’

QUEST BARS HAS A BRAND NEW NATURAL LINE:

NOTICE OF DISCLOSURE: http://cmp.ly/3

In Episode 537 of “The Livin’ La Vida Low-Carb Show with Jimmy Moore,” we welcome natural health enthusiast and Paleo blogger David Csonka from the “Naturally Engineered” blog. David says he is committed to “unlocking human potential, the natural way” as he puts it on his popular blog about barefoot running, fitness, lifestyle, nutrition and physiology. He is a big believer in the human body’s extraordinary resilience and adaptability to virtually anything we challenge it to do. From freaky science project junk foods that dominate American food culture to the backwards obsession of our society to ignore the freedom of being barefoot vs. wearing shoes for athletics, you’ll find yourself nodding in agreement with a lot of what you hear today’s interview. We’ve got a community full of amazing people like David out there and I’d love to hear from YOU if there’s somebody you think I need to know about and interview. E-mail me that low-carb/Paleo diamond in the rough out there who is doing great work in the blogsophere spreading the message to livinlowcarbman@charter.net and I’ll work on getting them on one of my future podcasts.

Listen to David Csonka share his love for natural health living:

  • How a blog is merely a tool for chronicling the individual journey
  • Why he doesn’t have much credibility with weight loss because he’s thin
  • What led him to the work of Robb Wolf and the Paleo diet
  • The Zone diet is the “official diet” of CrossFit with Paleo secondary
  • How he watched Dr. Barry Sears explain Zone…but it was “nuts” for him
  • The hunger from the lean meats and forcing himself to eat broccoli
  • It occurred to him that “weighing and measuring foods” didn’t make sense
  • The Paleo concept just “clicked” with him from the start
  • What the biggest problems people have with going Paleo
  • How foods promoted as “healthy” are truly harmful to your health
  • The lunacy of eating a Boca burger as a way to improve your diet
  • How the vegan movement has penetrated the culture with their message
  • What he thinks the vegan groups are doing to market themselves well
  • How The China Study is viewed as “the holy grail” of veganism
  • The “dogmatic attitude” that tends to dominate the diet wars
