Latest in Paleo Episode 57: The Truth is Funny

QUICK DESCRIPTION

In this week's show, we take a look at some of the drugs being fed to conventionally raised food animals. Then it's a New York Times op-ed versus Joel Salatin...is sustainable meat a myth? Then, a few astonishing stories about obesity, including brides opting for tube-feedings. We've got a Moment of Paleo about precision in the Paleo Approach, and our After the Bell segment rocks, with a TEDx talk by Stephan Guyenet and an axorexic's point of view on the tube feeding fiasco.
