00:02 🎙 Rod started his YouTube channel because of his passion for content creation and helping others.
03:41 🍲 Changing his diet to a carnivore diet helped Rod improve his mental acuity and eliminate digestive issues.
05:19 🏋‍♂ Rod emphasizes the importance of incorporating weight-bearing exercise as you age to maintain mobility and health.
19:22 🍭 Cutting out all sweet foods, including artificial sweeteners, helped Rod overcome cravings and transform his taste buds.
20:46 🥤 Rod gradually transitioned from diet soda to sparkling water as part of eliminating sweet cravings from his diet.
21:27 🥩 Rod's favorite red meat is ground beef due to its flexibility, cost, high fat content, and ease of cooking.
22:36 ☕ Rod's typical day of eating includes bacon and eggs for breakfast, ground beef for lunch, and occasionally chicken drumsticks for dinner. He also enjoys butter and coffee in the morning.
23:59 🧈 Butter and tallow serve as effective snacks for Rod, helping to curb hunger and anxiety.
25:16 🍖 Rod's family members eat a lot of meat, but they are not strictly carnivore. He encourages them to consume fatty meat.
33:05 🕒 Rod practices intermittent fasting, typically having his first meal around 12:00-1:00 PM and his last meal at 6:30 PM. He occasionally experiments with longer fasts but prefers intermittent fasting.
41:51 🍳 Cooking with fat, like bacon and tallow, can be beneficial, as the body processes fat into ketones.
42:33 🧘 Eating more fat can help create a balance and equilibrium in your diet, allowing you to eat less overall.
45:01 💡 When attending family gatherings with different dietary preferences, finding a middle ground and respecting each other's choices can be a good approach.
52:58 🏋‍♂ For individuals with arthritis, low-impact resistance exercises like squats and wall push-ups can be beneficial, but it's essential to start at a level that suits your capabilities.
59:45 🍲 Bone broth can be included in your diet on a weekly basis, and you can use the liquid from pressure-cooked or Instant Pot meals as a pseudo bone broth.
