One of the coolest things about the ancestral health community is that there's always something new happening - from research, to educational programming, to conferences like the Ancestral Health Symposium, and more. Being connected with such a vibrant and interested community of like-minded individuals is one of the many reasons I enjoy what I do so much.

This past weekend, I attended the Ancestral Health Symposium at Harvard University, where some of the biggest contributors to the ancestral health movement gathered to discuss their research findings and theories on health and nutrition. One of the highlights of the conference for me was meeting people I’ve been in contact with for years, but hadn’t yet had the chance to meet in person: Mat LaLonde, Stephan Guyenet, Chris Masterjohn and many more. There were several great presentations, ...
