Eat Like A Cave Man: Live Longer

My name is Dr. Richard Jacoby. I’m one of the world’s foremost peripheral nerve surgeons.

I’m also the author of the groundbreaking, critically acclaimed book, “Sugar Crush.”

My mission is to help you live a longer, healthier, happier life.

One of the chief mechanisms I use is my new online course, The Urban Carnivore.

You can find it on my website, drjacoby.academy.

Whenever they hear this, most people ask me, “What’s that? What’s an Urban Carnivore?”

Let me explain.

Anthropologists tell us that our oldest known human relative was a primate called Australopithecus.

Nicknamed Lucy.

These were the days of hunter-gatherer societies.

Males, being larger, would hunt while females gathered.

The males got the meat while the females gathered the vegetables—tubers and such.

Did it work?

Sure did. How do we know? Because human beings evolved.

That’s the best testimony you could hope for. We evolved.

But what did we evolve into?

Today, most people eat heavily processed, sugar-enriched foods with most nutrients stripped away.

Small wonder we see so many people suffering from chronic health problems.

What would happen if we got ourselves off this modern, debilitating diet and put ourselves back on a diet our bodies were fundamentally built to accept?

That’s what I mean when I say Urban Carnivore.

And that’s what I teach in my course, which I hope you’ll check out.

It might just save your life.

Once again, you can find the course on my website, drjacoby.academy.

Stop Controlling Diabetes

Stop Controlling Diabetes

I’m Dr. Richard Jacoby, a leading peripheral nerve surgeon, health advocate, and author of the critically acclaimed book Sugar Crush.

It’s a tradition for doctors from Harvard University’s world-renowned Joslin Diabetes Center to visit my hometown of Scottsdale, Arizona, every year.

They teach us the latest techniques for controlling the disease.

A few years back, all I heard them talk about was the new buzzword: “poly-pharmacy.”

Which meant treating diabetes with multiple drugs.

They’d even built an acronym for the five drugs they wanted to treat diabetes with before resorting to insulin.

I won’t bore you with the chemistry.

Or outrage you by telling you how much the pharmaceutical industry makes off such silly parades.

I will say that not one of those doctors I ever heard speak tackled what I believe is the primary question for diabetes researchers.

What causes the disease?

Not “How do we treat it?” but “How do we stop it before it starts?”

It’s always interested me that, back in the 1500s, physicians would diagnose diabetes mellitus by drinking a patient’s urine.

You heard that right.

Diabetes mellitus is a term that comes from the Greek that means “siphoning out sugar.”

This describes the process the human body enacts when someone becomes diabetic.

Their bodies become diseased since they’re bound up with siphoning excess sugar.

In other words, you don’t need a degree from Harvard Medical School to tell if someone’s diabetic.

Nor do you need that degree to stop the disease cold in its tracks.

Get people to stop eating sugar.

I treat this in my new online Urban Carnivore course, and I hope you’ll check it out.

It might be the most critical decision you ever make for your health.

Prehistoric Lifestyle: Eat More Meat

Prehistoric Lifestyle: Eat More Meat

I’m Dr. Richard Jacoby, a leading peripheral nerve surgeon, health advocate, and author of the book “Sugar Crush.”

One of my most significant stances is that the food industry has lied to us.

It wants us to eat tons of sugar, which I know for a fact causes terrible diseases.

When instead, we should be eating the way our prehistoric ancestors ate.

In other words, we should eat plenty of meat and leafy green vegetables.

People always tell me, “But meat’s too expensive to eat!”

Is it?

I recently went to my market here in Scottsdale, Arizona, and bought a one-pound filet of good beef.

Which cost me about $34.

I took it home and cooked half the filet for the one meal I have every day.

Only half. And I didn’t even finish that half.

I ate the rest the following day with two eggs.

The total cost of my food for that day? I’d say about $10.

Prehistoric Lifestyle: Eat More Meat

And here’s the trick: my cholesterol levels are acceptable, my triglycerides are significant, and I’m getting my vitamins.

What I’m not getting is … drum roll, please … sugar.

Pound after pound of nerve-corroding, fat-inducing sugar.

I talk about the biochemistry behind this phenomenon at length in my new online course, Urban Carnivore.

You can find that course on my website, drjacoby.academy.

My goal in offering this course is to get you as healthy as possible.

To live longer while enjoying happier days.

What you hear me say might shock you because it defies how you’ve been taught.

But give it a try, and I think you’ll see that it makes all the difference in your physical and mental well-being.

 

Eat Like A Urban Carnivore

Eat Like A Urban Carnivore

I’m Dr. Richard Jacoby, a leading peripheral nerve surgeon, health advocate, and author of the critically acclaimed book Sugar Crush.

For the past more than 50 years, I’ve treated diabetic patients.

It’s often been my sad duty to amputate toes, feet, and legs as their disease progresses.

I remember once, I had a patient walk into my office in terrible shape.

He weighed 300 pounds, and his Body Mass Index was way over 30, which meant he was technically obese.

We were going over his health profile.

“How’s your diet?” I asked.

“Pretty good,” he said. “I don’t eat a lot of red meat.”

He said this proudly.

I just shook my head.

Because what he didn’t know—and what you might not know—is that a lot of the research that promotes the theory that red meat is terrible for us …

… is funded by Big Agriculture and Big Pharma.

Both institutions have vested interests in keeping you away from healthy foods.

The truth is that we are descended from ancestors whose bodies were built to consume proteins.

They were NOT built to consume ridiculous quantities of sugar, such as those found in carbohydrates …

Grains, fruits, vegetables, and all the other so-called “essential” foods listed on the modern “food pyramid.”

If you want to get healthy, alleviate chronic disease, and lead the longest, happiest life possible, I advocate eating like an urban carnivore.

You can learn more about my theories and research at drjacoby.academy.

Once you stop eating sugar, you’ll probably find—as so many of my students and followers do—that the world opens up to you.

You feel better than you have in years.

And why? Because you cut sugar out of your diet and eat like you were made to.

How Are Your Eating Habits?

How Are Your Eating Habits?

Your Eating Habits Are Probably Killing You Slowly Right at This Moment

My name is Dr. Richard Jacoby. I’m a leading peripheral nerve surgeon, health activist, and author of the critically acclaimed book Sugar Crush.

Recently, I walked through a grocery store trailing a woman who was doing her shopping.

She wasn’t aware that I was following her or that I stopped to read the label on every item she put in her cart.

What I saw shocked me, and I was someone who knew what to expect.

Everything she wanted to eat contained pound after pound of sugar.

For instance, one item contained 24 grams of carbohydrates.

This boils down to simple math.

Carbohydrates are sugars, and you can calculate how much sugar a quantity of carbohydrates contains by dividing by 4:

24 divided by 4 = 6 grams of sugar.

The proper amount of sugar most people should consume daily is about 4 grams.

So already, meaning with just one item, this woman was over her daily allotment.

And believe me, she had a lot more items to go.

The exciting end to this story?

Once the woman had finished her food shopping, she went straight to the back of the store, where the pharmacy was.

She presented a flurry of prescriptions for diabetes, high blood pressure, statins to control cholesterol, you name it.

All I could do was shake my head.

We’ve created a culture that medicates us against the very lifestyle that’s causing us disease in the first place.

If that’s not insanity, I don’t know what is.

In my new online course, Urban Carnivore, I teach people how to escape this vicious circle.

It’s time you lived the life you want so badly.

The Truth About Stem Cells

by | Feb 7, 2024 | urban carnivore

The Truth About Stem Cells 

My name is Dr. Richard Jacoby. I’m a leading peripheral nerve surgeon, health advocate, and the author of “Sugar Crush,” a book about our current addiction to sugar.

I’m also a huge proponent of stem cell therapies.

Back in roughly the year 2000, the use of stem cells from aborted fetuses (which I think is what they’re upset about) was banned in the U.S. for ethical reasons.

However, allogeneic stem cells can still be harvested from human afterbirths, like the placenta and the umbilical cord.

(Amniotic fluid also holds stem cells, but the FDA recently considered amniotic fluid to be secretion.

It, therefore, will undergo testing for many years.)

The upshot of all this is that stem cells have shown to be incredibly useful in treating various diseases.

Unfortunately, you often have to go outside the United States for these treatments.

Why?

In 2000, Senator John McCain of Arizona held a stem cell summit for the United States Senate.

Experts presented evidence of how stem cells work, why they work, what uses they can be put to, and how to harvest them ethically.

The senators who attended that conference left calling stem cells “a miracle.”

I agree, which is why I discuss stem cells so much in my online course, The Urban Carnivore.

If you’re looking for simple, powerful ways to live a longer, happier, healthier life, look no further than Urban Carnivore.

You can find this course on my website, drjacoby. academy.

It’s time you took back control of your health and lived the life you deserve.
