Paul Saladino: podcast appearances and interviews

Paul Saladino, born on June 29, 1977, is an American health influencer and board-certified psychiatrist. He is known for promoting dietary claims that have been characterized as pseudoscientific. Saladino initially gained prominence as a proponent of a strict meat-only carnivore diet, a dietary trend that lacks scientific validation for its effectiveness. His 2020 book, The Carnivore Code, has been described as a manifesto for the Paleo diet movement, in which Saladino described plants as poison. Subsequently, he shifted away from a strict carnivore diet due to serious side effects, now advocating for a diet that includes meat, fruit, and honey. He also promotes the consumption of raw milk despite the lack of evidence supporting additional health benefits and amid concerns over bacterial infection risks. Saladino maintains a significant social media presence, posting under the name paulsaladinomd, with a large following on Instagram and TikTok. His accounts have been banned at least once on each platform. Additionally, he is the founder of Heart & Soil, a company based in Austin, Texas, that produces food supplements. The company specializes in encapsulated organ meat-based supplements and liver pills, and he co-owns it with Brian Johnson, also known as Liver King, another influencer associated with the carnivore diet.
