57) Fiber Myths, Vitamin C Lies, and the Fight for Root-Cause Health with Chris Kruger
Description
In this episode of the Sapien Podcast, Chris Kruger returns as co-host with Brian Sanders for a deep dive into nutrition myths, fiber fallacies, and the failures of mainstream dietetics. Together, they expose how official guidelines and academic institutions push confusion for profit while ignoring root-cause solutions. The hosts critique health narratives around fiber, red meat, vitamin C, and weight-loss drugs, while sharing client case studies that reveal the real path to metabolic health. They emphasize the Sapien approach: whole foods, animal-based nutrition, hormone balance, and lifestyle over pills and procedures.
