Dr. Schindler didn’t always eat this way. Like many of us, he grew up on processed food, thinking it was normal. But after years of research, traveling the world, and working with indigenous communities, he realized we’ve lost the critical knowledge that made food nourishing. Through studying ancient techniques and applying them to modern life, he transformed his own diet and health. Now, he’s on a mission to help others reclaim their food, their health, and their connection to what truly nourishes us.
