Thank you for tuning in for another episode of Life’s Best Medicine. In this episode, Dr. Brian is back with Eric Reynolds (Keto Five-O) for Part 2 of this amazing interview. Eric is a licensed primary sports nutritionist, personal trainer, and retired police officer. He found success with a ketogenic/ carnivore lifestyle and founded Keto Five-O to help others find the same success and wellness that he found.

Brian and Eric talk about the inception of the Cops and Campers group, Eric’s experience dealing with anti-cop bias, and the mental health epidemic in this country. They also discuss the joys of camping and being out in nature, the benefits of homeschooling, the importance of being a critical thinker and fostering critical thinking skills in your children, as wellas Eric’s experience finding and meeting his half-brother, the power of eating clean, and the damaging effects of negativity and stereotyping.

Life’s Best Medicine according to Eric: “Think about how busy your life is—are you living or are you slowly dying? I realized that the old career I had, which was honorable—and I love all my police officers and first responders—but there comes a point when you’ve gotta really look at yourself. You’ve been helping everyone else, but you’ve gotta look at yourself—your own psyche, your physical health and mental health. Don’t be scared to retire early. Money is just money. It’s not true happiness.”

Thank you for listening. Have a blessed day and stay healthy!

Brian and Eric talk about Eric’s experiences on the police force, including the day in June 2013 when he was shot by a bank robber, and the PTSD that ensued.

Eric discussed the benefits of having women on the police force, the power of connecting with fatherless or parentless kids to teach them safety, wisdom, and responsibility, the health risks associated with being a police officer.

Eric also talked about his experience with the keto and carnivore diets, the importance of being a healthy role model for your kids, and finding purpose and passion in helping people.

Life’s Best Medicine according to Eric: “Seeing people get healthy.”

Eric Reynolds (@ketofiveo) uses a meat-based carnivore diet with minimal herbs and spices to recover from PTSD and drop the last of his extra body weight. Eric was a cop with the Boynton Beach Police Department near West Palm when he got shot in the foot by an armed bank robber they were chasing and he ended up killing the suspect in the process.  The whole incident left him in a pretty bad way and he started to display many signs of PTSD.  He discovered the keto diet and, not only did his health improve drastically and all the excess weight melt away, but he found peace and tranquillity begin to return to his life and his symptoms of PTSD start to fade.

He has since retired from the force and now is committed to helping other police officers to get their health back and to help them to deal with similar problems to his.  He has established an organization called Keto-Five-0 and you can find the group on Facebook at: https://www.facebook.com/groups/ketofiveo/
