134. Liver & Vital Living: A Deep Dive with Aleks Rybchinskiy
Episode 134
In this episode of The Path, I’m joined by my longtime friend and brother Aleks Rybchinskiy—a practitioner who’s walked the holistic performance path for decades and played a key role in the creation of BERSKI, a nutrient-dense organ meat snack line co-founded by Richard Blomberg of Eleiko.
This conversation is for the man who’s done a lot of things right—built a strong body, built a business, maybe even a family—but is still seeking more alignment with his values. We explore how nutrition, especially ancestral foods like liver, can become a tool for reclaiming energy, clarity, and leadership from the inside out. We also get real about fatherhood, time, and discerning what’s truly worth showing up for.
In this episode, we cover:
- Why liver outperforms muscle meat in protein and micronutrient content
- The problem with most liver supplements—and what “desiccated” really means
- Understanding the labels: grass-fed vs. grass-finished vs. pasture-raised
- How Aleks reversed his father’s fatty liver through daily liver intake
- How conscious nourishment supports masculine leadership and family life
