Is red wine good for us?

I've heard of glasses, but I don't know what quantity you're talking about.

Would you give a glass of wine to a child every day?

No.

No.

No.

So it is a neurotoxin.

The challenge is we don't know how much it's going to affect us and what day you might overdrink and you might drive a car and you might wish you didn't.

So we in medicine are likely affected by the world we live in.

Culturally, I'm Italian.

I grew up in a culture which loved to drink and eat.

And so that's our norm.

And so changing these things is really hard to do.

So the commitment in my life is I've seen the changes to my patients, to myself, and it was actually my patients who taught me about carnivore lifestyle.

So about 20 plus years ago, I was teaching meditation, prayer, yoga, acupuncture, because being infertile is very emotionally hard.

And most men and women don't show up to the fertility doctor because they just don't want to, or they don't know about it.

But many people actually quit after failing one or two IVF cycles, which are very expensive financially, physically, and emotionally.

and lots of depression, lots of relationship breakups over all this.

So I thought, wow, let's bring some mindfulness to the practice.

And people were getting improvement on that, mostly because I think they were continuing, they could be persistent.
