“At Paleovalley, our mission is to help people reclaim vibrant health. We provide products that prioritize nutrient density in an industry that prioritizes everything else. We believe that every dietary choice and every added ingredient is a powerful opportunity to love and care for oneself.”
Wild Pastures:
“Turning The Page To A Healthier You & A Healthier Planet
“We provide healthy, rotationally grazed, pasture-raised meats without hormones or antibiotics. Rotational grazing helps restore soil and sequester carbon from the atmosphere. We use no chemicals on our pastures... ever.
“We only work with small family farmers located in the USA using regenerative farming practices.
As I mention in the episode, Autumn sent me a sample box of the various products they offer, include meat from Wild Pastures and beef sticks and other products from Paleovalley.

Biography:
“Autumn Smith suffered from debilitating digestive issues and crippling anxiety for most of
her life. Specialist after specialist told her nothing could be done, and she was ready to give up.
But as one final attempt at a life free of health issues, Autumn decided to harness the power of
whole foods. She cleaned up her diet and in just 30 days, her IBS was cured. But that was just
the beginning. She also had less anxiety, was mentally sharper, and a bubbly side of her that she
forgot existed came back. Since then, Autumn has dedicated her life to helping others harness
the power of whole foods to live vibrant lives.
“In 2013, she and her husband Chas launched Paleovalley, a company dedicated to helping
people get the essential nutrients they need, without added sugars, grains, and other harmful
ingredients. But they didn’t stop there. After learning about the healing powers of grass fed,
pasture raised meat - both for our bodies and the planet - Autumn and Chas started their next
venture. In 2018, they launched Wild Pastures, a regenerative meat delivery service that sends
100% grass fed pasture raised meat directly to your doorstep.”

van Vliet paper on fake meat:
“Despite apparent similarities based on Nutrition Facts panels, our metabolomics analysis found that metabolite abundances between the plant‑based meat alternative and grass‑fed ground beef differed by 90% (171 out of 190 profiled metabolites; false discovery rate adjusted p < 0.05). Several metabolites were found either exclusively (22 metabolites) or in greater quantities in beef (51 metabolites) (all, p < 0.05).”
