Today, I am thrilled to reconnect with my friend and colleague, Dr. Nina Teicholz, an investigative science journalist, author, nutritional thought leader, and a science writer I love to follow.  In our conversation today, Dr. Teicholz highlights the challenges of distinguishing real news from propaganda, and we examine how nutritional dogma shapes the identity of many individuals. We explore the history and consequences of our food guidelines, including the Diet-Heart Hypothesis and the Seven Countries Study, looking at the impact of cancel culture in science, the role of seed oils and processed carbohydrates, and the misconceptions about red and processed meats. She also shares her vision for the future, which includes much-needed shifts in nutritional guidelines to improve metabolic health.  This discussion with Nina Teicholz is eye-opening, so you may want to listen to it more than once. IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN: Difficulties with finding real information and reliable advice on nutrition and health Why we need to be open-minded about dietary changes Biological truths that apply to all humans  How toxins and chronic stress impact our health Historical context of our dietary guidelines How the Seven Countries Study impacted the Diet-Heart hypothesis Long-term influence of the Diet-Heart hypothesis on our dietary guidelines Nina outlines the unintended consequences of the Diet-Heart hypothesis Challenges of changing the current diet guidelines How the notion that red and processed meats cause cancer came about Bio: Nina Teicholz Nina Teicholz, a science journalist, is the author of the New York Times bestseller The Big Fat Surprise, which upended the conventional wisdom on dietary fat–especially saturated fat—and spurred a new conversation about whether these fats in fact cause heart disease. Named a *Best Book* of the Year by The Economist, The Wall Street Journal, and Mother Jones, among others, it continues to be called a must-read for anyone seeking to understand the amazing story of how we came to believe fat is bad for health and what a better diet might look like. Nina is also the founder of the Nutrition Coalition, a non-profit working to ensure that government nutrition policy is transparent and evidence-based-work for which she's been asked to testify before the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the Canadian Senate. Teicholz is a graduate of Stanford and Oxford Universities and previously served as associate director of the Center for Globalization and Sustainable Development at Columbia University. Dr. Teicholz lives in New York City with her husband and two sons.

You don't have to be part of the dairy sector to see how important whole milk is for children, best-selling author Nina Teicholz, Ph.D., said in the latest Dairy Defined Podcast.That's because nutrition science makes a compelling case for full-fat milk, underscoring the importance of getting whole milk back in schools, the goal of the Whole Milk for Healthy Kids Act, she said. Children who drink whole milk tend to be healthier, she said. “You need the fat in the milk to digest the vitamins that are in the milk, those are fat soluble vitamins. “I'm not a dairy advocate, but it turns out that the science supports the position of those of people in the industry who would prefer to see whole milk back in schools.”Teicholz, author of “The Big Fat Surprise: Why Butter, Meat and Cheese Belong in a Healthy Diet,” also discussed how food policy might be shaken up by Robert F. Kennedy Jr's. confirmation as Health and Human Services Secretary. NMPF has a call to action supporting the Whole Milk for Healthy Kids Act for listeners who want to get involved on the advocacy page of our website, nmpf.org/take-action

Today, I am blessed to have here with me Nina Teicholz. She is an investigative science journalist and leader in nutrition reporting who is challenging the conventional wisdom on dietary fat–particularly, whether saturated fat causes heart disease and whether fat really makes you fat.  The New York Times bestselling author of The Big Fat Surprise. Teicholz also serves as Executive Director of The Nutrition Coalition, an independent non-profit group that promotes evidence-based nutrition policy. She is one of a new generation of researchers arguing that diets lower in carbohydrates are a scientifically sound approach for reversing nutrition-related diseases. For more than half a century, we've been told to eat a diet high in grains, low in fat, saturated fat (and cholesterol), but the last two decades of research have led a growing number of scientists  to conclude that this diet, despite being rigorously tested, could never be shown to prevent any kind of disease. Teicholz's work also explains why this diet has remained official policy for so long: the roles played by crusading scientists, the food industry, and more. In this episode, Nina opens the show by explaining her obsession with studying fat. Nina realized that people were afraid to talk about fat because the food industry was pushing their agenda. Nina explains what was wrong in the 1950s, leading most people to believe that saturated fats and dietary cholesterol cause heart disease. Later, we talk about why the American Heart Association gets so many health facts wrong. Tune in as Nina busts common myths around red meat and who is really pushing vegan and vegetarian diets.

During her research, Nina came across studies pointing out the flaws in a low-fat diet. However, so many scientists at universities were terrified to talk to Nina about fat. Why? Because people in the food industry were paid to give scientists a hard time. Nina realized there was something really wrong going on here that had such enormous implications. Nutrition science from the very beginning has been heavily influenced by the food industry. For instance, the vegetable oil industry wanted to go after people for attacking vegetable oils in any way. You see the same tactics happening today on social media.  [08:55] Polyunsaturated Fats vs. Saturated Fats vs. Monounsaturated Fats Fatty acids are long carbon chains.  Poly means many. Polyunsaturated fats have many double bonds. Each time there's a double bond in the chain, it kinks the chain. Some examples of polyunsaturated fats: Corn oil Safflower oil Sunflower oil Canola oil     Monounsaturated fats are the same carbon chain but with one double bond. If you want to use oil, it's better to use olive oil because it only has one double bond. Saturated means that the carbon chain is statured with hydrogen, and there is no double bond. It is a flat chain, and it makes a solid like butter. Saturated fats are actually the best for cooking, and they're the healthiest for eating because they do not oxidize or cause inflammation. [17:55] What Went Wrong In The 1950s With Ancel Keys and President Eisenhower The idea that fat, cholesterol, and animal foods are bad for health began in the 1950s.  The US was really in a panic over the rising tide of heart disease, which had been virtually nonexistent in the early 1900s. In the 1930s, heart disease became the number one killer.  A panic started when President Eisenhower himself had a heart attack in 1955. Eisenhower's doctor was convinced by Ancel Keys that saturated fats and dietary cholesterol cause heart disease.  Plus, Ancel Keys got his ideas adopted by the American Heart Association.  Ancel came out with a statement saying to avoid saturated fat and cholesterol in order to prevent heart attacks. We are still dealing with this in 2021.  [23:00] Why Are Seed Oils Approved by the American Heart Association?  How is it possible for the American Heart Association to continue to ignore so much scientific literature? More than 20 papers published in the field have concluded that we got it wrong on saturated fats.  There is no data to justify the authorities' limits on these seed oils. It's challenging to trust the government with our health when they recommend seed oils. [31:00] Sorry Vegans, Meat-Eating Is Healthy For Humans  Nina did not know how controversial red meat was until she put a picture of it on the cover of her book.  Sadly, many people think that if you eat meat, you're a bad person, you don't believe in climate change, and you're not doing your part to protect the climate. There's this moral revulsion that has been created against meat. Influencers in the spheres of science and public health have vilified one of the healthiest foods on the planet.  Meat was developed by humans in order to have a convenient and cheap source of protein. [33:15] Myth: Meat Causes Diabetes   Diabetes is caused by elevated blood sugars. Sugar causes elevated blood sugars, so do carbs.  Where's the sugar in meat? It's just nonexistent.  It's impossible that meat would cause diabetes. Red meat consumption has gone down around 28% since 1970. Whereas, diabetes has skyrocketed out of control.  [34:15] Myth: Red Meat Causes Colorectal Cancer The WHO decided that red meat and processed meats cause colorectal cancer. This decision was based on these kinds of weak science called epidemiological or observational studies that show associations instead of causation. The data they used was self-reported dietary data, and we all lie about what we eat. There needs to be a more significant discussion about the bias against red meat. [38:30] Why People Are Pushing Vegetarian and Vegan Diets The animal rights movement does not want people eating animals. The Seventh Day Adventist Church has a religious belief that people should eat a vegan diet.Plus, the food industry has an enormous investment in plant-based foods. Also, many companies want to hop on the climate change bandwagon.  Many vegan burgers have vegetable oils that are not healthy.  [41:30] Myth: There's a Correlation Between Red Meat Consumption and Heart Disease The original reason that red meat was thought to cause heart disease was based the fact that it contains saturated fat and cholesterol. However, research shows that saturated fat and cholesterol do not cause heart disease.  Therefore, foods containing saturated fat and cholesterol don't cause heart disease. The correlation between saturated fat, cholesterol, and heart disease has been more rigorously and extensively studied than almost any other scientific question in the history of nutrition science.  [47:15] Which To Cut First: Smoking Cigarettes, Processed Sugars, or Vegetable Oils  People smoked historically for hundreds of years tobacco, but they did not get cancer or heart disease until the introduction of sugar. Nina says that smoking is probably safer than processed sugars or vegetable oils.  Between sugar and vegetable oils, Nina says that vegetable oils are safer.  People who go low-carb will see massive improvements even if they continue to use vegetable oils.  AND MUCH MORE!

We all know that saturated fat is bad for us.  But do we, in fact?  In her New York Times bestselling book, "The Big Fat Surprise: Why Butter, Meat & Cheese Belong in a Healthy Diet," Nina Teicholz demonstrates that the scientific "consensus" on fat was reached much the same way that the consensus on Covid 19 vaccines was reached -- by intellectual bullying and the demonization and silencing of critics.  In this fascinating interview, Teicholz reviews some of the central arguments of her book -- a book that Malcolm Gladwell said "blew [his] mind."

In this episode, Nina Teicholz discusses how she began investigating dietary fat and then eventually wrote her internationally-acclaimed book, The Big Fat Surprise.

The Big Fat Surprise:Why Butter, Meat &Cheese Belong in Healthy Diet by Nina Tiecholz. Is a New York Times Bestseller

Today, I am blessed to have here with me Nina Teicholz. She is an investigative science journalist and leader in nutrition reporting who is challenging the conventional wisdom on dietary fat–particularly, whether saturated fat causes heart disease and whether fat really makes you fat.  The New York Times bestselling author of The Big Fat Surprise. Teicholz also serves as Executive Director of The Nutrition Coalition, an independent non-profit group that promotes evidence-based nutrition policy. She is one of a new generation of researchers arguing that diets lower in carbohydrates are a scientifically sound approach for reversing nutrition-related diseases.   For more than half a century, we've been told to eat a diet high in grains, low in fat, saturated fat (and cholesterol), but the last two decades of research have led a growing number of scientists  to conclude that this diet, despite being rigorously tested, could never be shown to prevent any kind of disease. Teicholz's work also explains why this diet has remained official policy for so long: the roles played by crusading scientists, the food industry, and more. In this episode, Nina opens the show by explaining her obsession with studying fat. Nina realized that people were afraid to talk about fat because the food industry was pushing their agenda. Nina explains what was wrong in the 1950s, leading most people to believe that saturated fats and dietary cholesterol cause heart disease. Later, we talk about why the American Heart Association gets so many health facts wrong. Tune in as Nina busts common myths around red meat and who is really pushing vegan and vegetarian diets.

During her research, Nina came across studies pointing out the flaws in a low-fat diet. However, so many scientists at universities were terrified to talk to Nina about fat. Why? Because people in the food industry were paid to give scientists a hard time. Nina realized there was something really wrong going on here that had such enormous implications. Nutrition science from the very beginning has been heavily influenced by the food industry. For instance, the vegetable oil industry wanted to go after people for attacking vegetable oils in any way. You see the same tactics happening today on social media.    [08:55] Polyunsaturated Fats vs. Saturated Fats vs. Monounsaturated Fats Fatty acids are long carbon chains.  Poly means many. Polyunsaturated fats have many double bonds. Each time there's a double bond in the chain, it kinks the chain. Some examples of polyunsaturated fats: Corn oil Safflower oil Sunflower oil Canola oil     Monounsaturated fats are the same carbon chain but with one double bond. If you want to use oil, it's better to use olive oil because it only has one double bond. Saturated means that the carbon chain is statured with hydrogen, and there is no double bond. It is a flat chain, and it makes a solid like butter. Saturated fats are actually the best for cooking, and they're the healthiest for eating because they do not oxidize or cause inflammation.   [17:55] What Went Wrong In The 1950s With Ancel Keys and President Eisenhower The idea that fat, cholesterol, and animal foods are bad for health began in the 1950s.  The US was really in a panic over the rising tide of heart disease, which had been virtually nonexistent in the early 1900s. In the 1930s, heart disease became the number one killer.  A panic started when President Eisenhower himself had a heart attack in 1955. Eisenhower's doctor was convinced by Ancel Keys that saturated fats and dietary cholesterol cause heart disease.  Plus, Ancel Keys got his ideas adopted by the American Heart Association.  Ancel came out with a statement saying to avoid saturated fat and cholesterol in order to prevent heart attacks. We are still dealing with this in 2021.    [23:00] Why Are Seed Oils Approved by the American Heart Association?  How is it possible for the American Heart Association to continue to ignore so much scientific literature? More than 20 papers published in the field have concluded that we got it wrong on saturated fats.  There is no data to justify the authorities' limits on these seed oils. It's challenging to trust the government with our health when they recommend seed oils.   [31:00] Sorry Vegans, Meat-Eating Is Healthy For Humans  Nina did not know how controversial red meat was until she put a picture of it on the cover of her book.  Sadly, many people think that if you eat meat, you're a bad person, you don't believe in climate change, and you're not doing your part to protect the climate. There's this moral revulsion that has been created against meat. Influencers in the spheres of science and public health have vilified one of the healthiest foods on the planet.  Meat was developed by humans in order to have a convenient and cheap source of protein.   [33:15] Myth: Meat Causes Diabetes   Diabetes is caused by elevated blood sugars. Sugar causes elevated blood sugars, so do carbs.  Where's the sugar in meat? It's just nonexistent.  It's impossible that meat would cause diabetes. Red meat consumption has gone down around 28% since 1970. Whereas, diabetes has skyrocketed out of control.    [34:15] Myth: Red Meat Causes Colorectal Cancer The WHO decided that red meat and processed meats cause colorectal cancer. This decision was based on these kinds of weak science called epidemiological or observational studies that show associations instead of causation. The data they used was self-reported dietary data, and we all lie about what we eat. There needs to be a more significant discussion about the bias against red meat.   [38:30] Why People Are Pushing Vegetarian and Vegan Diets The animal rights movement does not want people eating animals. The Seventh Day Adventist Church has a religious belief that people should eat a vegan diet.Plus, the food industry has an enormous investment in plant-based foods. Also, many companies want to hop on the climate change bandwagon.  Many vegan burgers have vegetable oils that are not healthy.    [41:30] Myth: There's a Correlation Between Red Meat Consumption and Heart Disease The original reason that red meat was thought to cause heart disease was based the fact that it contains saturated fat and cholesterol. However, research shows that saturated fat and cholesterol do not cause heart disease.  Therefore, foods containing saturated fat and cholesterol don't cause heart disease. The correlation between saturated fat, cholesterol, and heart disease has been more rigorously and extensively studied than almost any other scientific question in the history of nutrition science.    [47:15] Which To Cut First: Smoking Cigarettes, Processed Sugars, or Vegetable Oils  People smoked historically for hundreds of years tobacco, but they did not get cancer or heart disease until the introduction of sugar. Nina says that smoking is probably safer than processed sugars or vegetable oils.  Between sugar and vegetable oils, Nina says that vegetable oils are safer.  People who go low-carb will see massive improvements even if they continue to use vegetable oils.    AND MUCH MORE!   Resources from this episode:  Check out Nina's Website: https://ninateicholz.com Follow Nina Teicholz Twitter: https://twitter.com/bigfatsurprise Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/NinaTeicholz/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ninateicholz/ Get The Big Fat Surprise: Why Butter, Meat and Cheese Belong in a Healthy Diet: https://www.amazon.com/Big-Fat-Surprise-Butter-Healthy/dp/1451624433/benazadi-20 Join the Keto Kamp Academy: https://ketokampacademy.com/7-day-trial-a Watch Keto Kamp on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUh_MOM621MvpW_HLtfkLyQ Order Keto Flex: http://www.ketoflexbook.com -------------------------------------------------------- / / E P I S O D E   S P ON S O R S  PureForm Omega Plant Based Oils (Best Alternative to Fish Oil): http://www.purelifescience.com Use ben4 for $4.00 off.

Take a look at the list of ingredients on the back of almost any ultra-processed packaged food and you are likely to find palm oil or its derivatives as an ingredient. Its presence is just as ubiquitous in cosmetics and personal care products.  The consequences of the excessive use of palm oil are far-reaching and impact more than just our health. In this episode, my co-host James Connolly is talking with Jocelyn Zuckerman, author of Planet Palm:  How Palm Oil Ended Up in Everything - and Endangered the World. Jocelyn and James dive deep into the history of the palm oil industry and how it came to be in everything, exploring the devastation of natural habitats, corporate corruption, and how many of these practices continue today. Join them in this enlightening conversation as they discuss: -Jocelyn's connection to Nina Teicholz and her inspiration for the book -The effect of land grabs in Africa in the aftermath of the 2008 economic crisis -How Liberia was founded and the palm oil industry there -The brief summary of Unilever's violent past from Sunlight Soap to enslaving native populations  -How the palm oil trade replaced the slave trade after it was outlawed in 1807 -How growing palm oil trees started as a way to alleviate poverty -The processing oil palm and stats on palm oil usage -Major brands that use a lot of palm oil -The perspective of poachers -The connection between what's happening in the palm oil industry with other commodity industries -Tragic stories of modern-day slavery in the agriculture industry -The current practice of using prisoners as farmworkers and the effect it has on prison sentences  While topics like this can seem overwhelming and discouraging, I encourage my listeners to see the links below for ways you can find out more and take action.

In the Menopause Movement's courses, I talk a lot about how sugar's not good for us by any means, but I think it's nowhere near as toxic as seed oils. Not to mention that this gets to weight gain since it changes our cravings (it can make you want more sugar and carbohydrate-rich foods that raise blood sugar). But it doesn't end there. Seed oils deplete your brain of energy. We talk about that and more in today's second episode of The Best of The Menopause Movement Podcast with globally recognized nutrition and metabolism thought leader, New York Times bestselling author, and speaker, Dr. Cate Shanahan.

In Conversation With Nina Teicholz LIVE

Suzie Yorke is the Founder and CEO of Love Good Fats, a company that produces high-fat, low-carb, and low-sugar products with a mission to bring healthy fats back. A mom, 11-time Ironman competitor, and yoga enthusiast, Suzie spent years adhering to a low-fat diet only to hit a wall in her mid-40s. After reading Nina Teicholz's best-seller, The Big Fat Surprise, she immediately shifted to a high-fat, low-carb diet and felt better right away. While she loved the benefits of her new lifestyle, she found it challenging to find convenient good-fat snacks. Seeing a gap in the marketplace and a huge opportunity to help others through food, Suzie developed Love Good Fats. Today, she leads the brand's expansion as it quickly becomes one of the fastest-growing bar brands in North America. As a 30-year veteran of the CPG industry, she has worked at high-profile companies such as Procter and Gamble, Kraft, Heinz, and Weight Watchers.

However, as Suzie Yorke came to find out, fats are beneficial for your body. What is unhealthy is too much sugar, which is notoriously present in most food sold in the US. So, Suzie set out to build a brand that encourages a relationship with good fats. Her concept has been readily embraced by many people who have become loyal customers of her brand, Love Good Fats.  In this week's episode of the NexxtLevel Brands Podcast, Steve Cleere interviews Suzie Yorke, the Founder and CEO of Love Good Fats, about how the realization that fat was good led to the founding of a CPG brand.

The most important thing? Just start! A good entrepreneur does not hang on to her idea for a long time, hoping to start a business someday in the future. Instead, you should start by taking small but well-directed steps towards building the kind of business you dream of. According to Suzie Yorke, you can start by creating samples of the products you envision, and then start production in small batches. This will help you launch your business on a path toward success. Suzie Yorke, the Founder and CEO of Love Good Fats, is Andrea Heuston's guest in this episode of the Lead Like A Woman Show where she talks about entrepreneurship and building a health-conscious food brand. Suzie also talks about her passion for athletics, her company's most popular products, and how her marketing background helped grow and scale the brand to over $100 million in three years.

Professor Noakes was born in Harare, Zimbabwe in 1949. As a youngster he had a keen interest in sport and attended Diocesan College in Cape Town. Following this he studied at the University of Cape Town (UCT) and obtained an MBChB degree in 1974, an MD in 1981 and a DSc (Med) in Exercise Science in 2002.In the early 90s, Noakes teamed up with Morné du Plessis to drive the founding of the Sports Science Institute of South Africa (SSISA). The Institute was built to provide a facility that would primarily fund research in sports performance. The application of this research would provide sports personnel of all disciplines with the means to improve.

The incredible amount of wealth that has been transferred as the rich got richer in 2020 in an incredibly short span of time. 345 Dr. Zach Bush Exploring the multiple inconsistencies that we are seeing in the media when we look at the actual science and numbers. Why people with multiple chronic conditions are disproportionately affected and more likely to have a big impact from CV19.   [10:30] Making Lifestyle Change Part Of The Narrative The fact that we are not seeing lifestyle change as part of the narrative in the mass media when people need to hear that message from them. What we can do to make greater lifestyle change happen. Looking at the statistics and seeing that 95% of North Americans over the age of 45 have two or more chronic diseases and thus having a much higher chance of a negative outcome with CV19. Why we should be questioning why gyms are being forced to close yet fast-food restaurants can remain open. How else we can be more conscious in our decisions as consumers by not ordering takeout that comes in Styrofoam containers or brands that use single-use plastics such as Amazon.

Why lockdowns are not good for our blood sugar and are making people more susceptible to severe outcomes. The high risks that are at stake for children from the 2020 lockdowns and pandemic.

Jason Silva from Brain Games   [34:30] Mass Media Mind Control How the mass media is hacking our empathetic state for clicks.

How people are merchandising the virus to boost their profits and influence. Carl Jung Jordan Peterson Why we’re so terrified to explore the shadow side of ourselves. Exploring the unconscious capitalistic model that has been created from COVID-19. Comparing the laws of nature and how we’re worshipping science as if it were a God. Unpacking the immense amount of unintended damage that we are doing to the environment. Why fear-mongering is just making it easier to control us rather than empower us to make change happen for our health.

How our health is being sacrificed by CDC guidelines including mask-wearing. Why children have the most to lose from 24-hour face mask guidelines. The fact that being exposed to other germs is so important for a child's developing immune system.   [53:30] The Truth About ‘Healthy’ Looking People Getting COVID-19 Why just because a person looks healthy and fit doesn’t necessarily mean they are if they’re eating horrible food, using steroids, over-exercising, and living by poor lifestyle habits. Storynomics: Story-Driven Marketing in the Post-Advertising by Robert Mckee and Thomas Gerace The Tipping Point: How Little Things Can Make a Big Difference by Malcolm Gladwell Why we’re seeing so many stories in the news of people who looking healthy suffering from COVID-19.

Questioning what it is about us as a society that we get so hooked on these fear-mongering stories The Bearded Nurse & COVID-19 - Media Says You’re Susceptible, Science Says Otherwise Why there are so many nuances to the stories that the media is pushing on us about people who are sick.

Letting Go: The Pathway of Surrender Kindle Edition by David R. Hawkins breathwork.io M21 Wellness Guide Wellness Force Community   Power Quotes From The Show COVID-19 Guidance That Actually Helps   "If you look at the data, the individuals that are disproportionately affected and have a more likely severe outcome. They have multiple comorbidities and chronic conditions that can be ameliorated and helped with diet and lifestyle change but this has not been part of the narrative which has been really frustrating. So, of course, the government and organizations have been saying that their approach has been all about health and 'staying safe' yet there's really no proactive, preventative measures being communicated from 'the powers that be.' Guidelines from these organization that explain how to support our health from breathwork to optimizing sleep to losing weight to exercise to stress management - none of those things have been prioritized by pretty much anyone until the World Health Organization finally came out to share the data on this in September 2020 that I've been talking about since March 2020." - Mike Mutzel     Why Lockdowns Are Bad For Your Health   "On the individual level, I really think that the biggest unintended harm that we're doing to ourselves is social isolation. We know that social isolation's impact on our health is on par with smoking. I see a lot of depression amongst my clients that is reverberating and causing deleterious health outcomes from weight gain to diabetes. We are tribal creatures and lockdowns are not good for your blood sugar and what is paradoxical is that they are making people more susceptible to severe outcomes. This 'treatment' is increasing the probability that when people are exposed, they're going to suffer more severely from the disease that we're trying to prevent them from getting." - Mike Mutzel      Enough With The Fear-Mongering     "Enough with all of the fear-mongering; we need to empower people because fear-mongering just makes you more controllable and it doesn't empower you to make more intentional decisions about how to improve your health. So, we need to help people shift their attention and realize that they have to start taking care of their health. Start exercising and if you're afraid of being around people - take off your mask and go for a walk. The risk of outdoor exposure transmission is really low. We need to do things to help empower people and wake them up. I feel that the people that are the most scared and the most convinced that they're just going to die from this virus if they ever get exposed to it are the very people that are not meditating or doing any spiritual type of work; they're just believing in what this authoritarian state is telling them to do. The more intentional people can be about their health, the less fear they're going to feel." - Mike Mutzel     Links From Today's Show  CURED Nutrition 297 Mike Mutzel High Intensity Health Myoxcience Nutrition High Intensity Health Radio Belly Fat Effect High Intensity Health Courses Breath Work as a Stress Reduction Tool w/ Josh Trent The Bearded Nurse & COVID-19 - Media Says You’re Susceptible, Science Says Otherwise The COVID-19 syndemic is not global: context matters Medical Definition of Syndemic Intermittent Fasting: Why Fast Time is More Important Than Length Leave Wellness Force a review on iTunes breathwork.io M21 Wellness Guide Wellness Force Community Mike Mutzel Facebook Instagram Twitter High Intensity Health YouTube   About Mike Mutzel Mike Mutzel has an B.S. in Biology from Western Washington University and an M.S. in Clinical Nutrition from the University of Bridgeport.

Join us this week as we chat about raw food that we like to eat (or used to eat) and each of us is convinced that the other has the weirder list. Sandy unpacks some of the new information she has learned from reading Nina Teicholz’s book, The Big Fat Surprise: Why Butter, Meat, and Cheese Belong in a Healthy Diet. Finally, we can’t say enough about the brilliance of Morgan Spurlock’s recent documentary, Supersize Me 2: a look into what it takes to start a fast food restaurant, from market research to farming to delivering a product to the consumer. You can find the documentary on Amazon Prime.

Today, I am lucky to have here with me, the CEO and co-founder of the Fasting Method Program, clinical educator, and researcher, Megan Ramos. Megan’s major role in the The Fasting Method is to facilitate the patient’s education on the Fasting Method dietary principles and counsel them on their fasting regimens. Megan, along with her colleague Dr. Jason Fung, believe that both what you eat and when you eat matter. The Fasting Method utilizes therapeutic fasting and time restricted eating protocols with their patients to help them reverse their type 2 diabetes and achieve sustainable weight-loss. They encourage their patients to eat real foods and adopt a low-carb lifestyle in addition to the fasting. Megan was diagnosed with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NALFD) at age 12, polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) at age 14, and type 2 diabetes (DMII) at age 27. She reversed these metabolic conditions and achieve an 86-pound weight loss by incorporating intermittent fasting with a low carb diet, and is now passionate about helping others do the same. Megan lives in Toronto, Canada. She is a director of the nonprofit organization Public Health Collaboration Canada (PHC Canada), works on the editorial board of the Journal of Insulin Resistance and Team Diet Doctor. In this episode, Megan Ramos opens the show explaining her various health problems growing up. She started working with Dr. Jason Fung at the age of fifteen, and together, they realized the importance of fasting. Plus, Megan explains how essential it is to be proactive when it comes to your health. Not many people understand that we need to get to the root cause of a disease rather than treating the symptoms. Stay tuned as Megan gives fasting advice, and she reveals the most surprising benefits the practice can offer.

While Jimmy is gone on a much needed and deserved sabbatical for six months to rest and recuperate, we will be bringing you the best of the best from the vast archive of shows that Jimmy has accumulated over the last 15 years. We also will be airing shows from his wildly popular JIMMY RANTS live show that originated on Instagram Live and now resides at JimmyRants.com. Paid advertisement “From the beginning when Ancel Keyes said ‘who can prove me wrong’, diet science has been characterized by their poor scientific choices.” Nina Teicholz Today’s interview guest is an investigative journalist named Nina Teicholz who has written columns for Gourmet magazine, The New Yorker, The Economist, The New York Times, and The Washington Post. After being asked by a publisher to write a book about the health impact of trans fats over a decade ago, Teicholz found a much deeper story that was more salacious and groundbreaking than even she realized at the time–the negative attention saturated fat receives as a culprit in disease was just plain wrong and the unfounded low-fat diet advice has been the most disastrous public health experiment in world history. The culmination of over a decade of research and writing has resulted in the release of her 2014 book The Big Fat Surprise: Why Butter, Meat and Cheese Belong in a Healthy Diet that has already hit the New York Times bestsellers list. Listen in to hear Jimmy and Nina discuss why we’ve never heard of her before now, the differences between her book and Gary Taubes’ classic Good Calories, Bad Calories, the history behind how the American Heart Association bought into the anti-saturated fat bias of Ancel Keys, how the anti-sugar work of John Yudkin was mocked and ridiculed by anti-fat proponents, the fraudulent way the Mediterranean diet was created (by Keys) and marketed as “healthy,” how the vilification of tropical oils like coconut oil actually led to the increased use of trans fats, how groups like the Center for the Science in the Public Interest led by Michal Jacobson have had such an influence with good and bad results, the problem with omega-6-rich polyunsaturated fats from vegetable oils producing oxidation products when heated, and so much more! This new book from Nina Teicholz takes the message of Taubes to the next level in a narrative form that makes the notion of a high-fat diet more mainstream that it’s ever been before. The tide is turning and this book is going to be a big reason why.

Hello, hello healthy people. Have you been eating a sapien diet recently? Are you feeling better than ever? Or is it just me? Many people are probably doing it without even realizing it. It’s basically just a high animal food, high fat, low carb, low antinutrient diet with a condensed eating window. We talk a lot about why this way of eating is so beneficial and so misunderstood today with the legendary Nina Teicholz. She is an adjunct professor at NYU’s Wagner Graduate School of Public Service, the Executive Director of The Nutrition Coalition (a group devoted to evidence-based nutrition policy), an investigative science journalist and author of the must-read book Big Fat Surprise. Just go read it now. Seriously. She spent almost 10 years researching and digging up studies to blow the top off one of the biggest mistakes in human history. Yes she says it. Demonizing cholesterol and human health foods like red meat and saturated fat has truly been a catastrophe for the health of our world. She got in this early and made waves, woke people up, and got the movement going. She and Gary Taubes have been instrumental in getting the word out to the mainstream. Listen up everyone, she’s awesome! I have a few more things before we start, though. We’re actually still looking for a story or two to weave into the film. If you know a family whose kids have lost a ton of weight, I’d love to hear from them. I’m also interested in connecting with an LA based editor and videographer that can help make some more youtube content with us. We have a lot of things cooking and not enough chefs! Do you have pets? We’ve got the healthiest pet food possible at http://NoseToTail.org It’s grass finished ground beef with all the organs in it, specially made for animals. Get some for yourself while you're at it. We make it for humans too. We also have high omega 3 pork and chicken that’s pasture raised and fed a special diet. The meat and fat are loaded with possibly the best omega 3 to omega 6 ratio in America.

the film here: http://indiegogo.com/projects/food-lies-post   SHOW NOTES Nina is a journalist who spent nearly a decade writing her book The Big Fat Surprise: Why Butter, Meat and Cheese Belong in a Healthy Diet  She thought she was writing about science but realized she was writing about politics  She started Nutrition Coalition to bring an alternative point of view to Washington to try and get government support to change the dietary guidelines Turns out Americans follow the dietary guidelines, but are still getting sick Consumption of red meat, butter, and whole milk are down  Consumption of grains and vegetable oils are up  Ever since the dietary guidelines were introduced in the 1980s diabetes and obesity rates have exploded  No one can prove that the guidelines caused these epidemics, but we have a body of science that show if people ignore the guidelines and eat high fat low carb they can manage and reverse their diseases suggesting that the guidelines are no promoting health  Quote from Nina’s book: “But like lost languages, lost skills, and lost songs, it takes only a few generations to forget” It seems normal that everyone has a disease, but it’s not normal  Challenging the idea of low-fat plant-based diets is extremely difficult because it is enshrined at the highest levels and there is a lot of corporate interest behind it  The main ingredients in the grocery stores are sugar, grains, and vegetable oils  Food only became medicalized in the 1950s when people were suffering from heart disease Diet-Heart Hypothesis introduced by Ancel Keys claiming that saturated fat and cholesterol would clog your arteries like hot oil down a cold pipe and that would lead to a heart attack  The first dietary recommendation in the world was to limit saturated fat issued by the AHA in 1961 It wasn’t until 1970 that all fats were demonized and not just saturated fats  The AHA recognized that they didn’t have all the answers but they couldn’t imagine any negative unintended consequences but in reality, the unintended consequences were two-fold By cutting down on saturated fats we shifted to PUFA vegetable oils which turned out to cause higher death rates from cancer Since 1960 we have increased carbohydrate consumption by 30% and have decreased fat since 1965 by around 30% and protein has stayed relatively constant They tested the diet-heart hypothesis after the dietary recommendations had already been made, and were never able to support it by science  The majority of studies that couldn’t confirm any health benefits to low-fat diets were largely ignored and considered “silent studies” it was too uncomfortable for anyone to admit they might have got things wrong The Minnesota Coronary Survey study wasn’t published for 16 years because the researchers weren’t happy with the results since they didn’t support a low-fat diet for reducing risk of heart disease [29:51] The demonization of cholesterol has been one of the greatest mistakes in human history  All of the trials that swapped out saturated fats for polyunsaturated fats showed increased death rates from cancer but they were so convinced that lowering cholesterol was the answer so they accepted it One of the scariest parts of her book was researching the detrimental effects of vegetable oils which didn’t even exist in the food supply until the early 1900s  The types of fats in vegetable oils can replace the stable fatty acids in our cell membranes, there are significant effects of these fats on our health  There are over 100 clinical trials showing the benefit of carbohydrate restriction We need to ask what diet can people stick to in the real-world The metabolic ward studies are flawed because they are short-term  Type-2 diabetes is reversible [41:31] Nina tried to get media coverage on type-2 diabetes remission with a ketogenic diet and the on air doctor wouldn’t allow it because it contradicted everything he had been promoting over the years Institutions have been promoting low-fat diets for so long that people can’t go back on their word Much of the media are funded by pharmaceutical companies so ads aren’t going to promote lifestyle factors that can get people off their medications  There is huge corporate investments in meat replacements  Nina is open minded to the carnivore movement based on the nutrient density of animal foods and the various toxins that can be in plant foods  We are moving in the right direction by removing the caps on dietary cholesterol and dropping language around low-fat diets We need better science and grass-roots movements to continue this paradigm shift We need our doctors to be educated on this because no one wants to feel like they can’t trust their doctor, and we shouldn’t have to  [51:18] The foods that are in institutions are determined by the dietary guidelines  [52:02] If you belong to a large medical practice, you risk medical malpractice if you teach people a low-carb diet if it’s not standard of care, until it’s included in the dietary guidelines its not available as an option  The focus of the Nutrition Coalition is about doing proper science and reviewing it properly and not ignore science and if the science is done correctly and not ignored we can get answers  The current dietary guidelines for vegetarianism, mediteranean diet, and DASH diet are supported by almost no evidence We are dealing with politics not evidence  We need more people spreading this message because everyone shares in a different way that may resonate with someone

Nina Teicholz joins me for a second time (listen to our first interview in episode 8), this time to discuss her groundbreaking work reforming our dietary guidelines. Nina is the bestselling author of The Big Fat Surprise: Why Butter, Meat and Cheese Belong in a Healthy Diet, and she is the Executive Director of the Nutrition Coalition, a non-profit organization that promotes evidence-based nutrition policy. During our discussion, Nina shares the origin of the nutritional guidelines, and the unbelieveable story of how they came to be. She also shares the frightening reality of how deeply the guidelines influence society and how they are based on flimsy data in desperate need of an update. Despite the simplicity of her mission, to base the guidelines on science, she has been consistently criticized and thwarted by the Medical Industrial Complex, disinvited from nutritional conferences, and targeted for unwarranted journal retraction. It's hard to believe, but it's all true! Listen to our interview to find out more!   Key Takeaways: [3:12] The mission of the Nutrition Coalition. [5:48] The nutritional guidelines have a far-reaching influence over many different sectors. [11:05] Are nutritional guidelines evidence-based and who creates them? [17:44] Nina was disinvited to be on a food policy panel from the National Food Policy Conference. [26:05] In the 1950's, why was saving middle-aged men from heart disease all the rage? [28:55] Does the government belong in the position of giving dietary advice? [35:35] The Nutrition Coalition has been critical of the non-science-based guidelines and the US media for generalizing what is good for an entire population.

Investigative journalist Nina Teicholz joined Ken and Dawn remotely from a studio in New York City in mid-September for a fascinating discussion about the history and pitfalls of nutrition science. Teicholz is the author of the international bestseller, “The Big Fat Surprise: Why Butter, Meat & Cheese Belong in a Healthy Diet.” The Economist named it the number one science book of 2014 and the Journal of Clinical Nutrition wrote, “This book should be read by every scientist and every nutritional science professional.” Nina began her journalism career as a reporter for National Public Radio. She went on to write for many publications, including the Wall Street Journal, New York Times, Washington Post, The New Yorker, and The Economist. She attended Yale University and Stanford University where she studied biology and majored in American Studies. She has a master’s degree from Oxford University and served as associate director of the Center for Globalization and Sustainable Development at Columbia University. “The Big Fat Surprise” is credited with upending the conventional wisdom on dietary fat. It challenged the very core of America’s nutrition policy by explaining the politics, personalities, and history of how we came to believe that dietary fat is bad for health.  Her book was the first mainstream publication to make the full argument for why saturated fats – the kind found in dairy, meat and eggs – belong in a healthy diet. The Wall Street Journal, Forbes, Mother Jones, the Library Journal and Kirkus Review named “The Big Fat Surprise” one of the best books of 2014. The Economist described Nina’s book as a “nutrition thriller.” Links: -- Nina Teicholz blog -- Amazon: “Big Fat Surprise” http://amzn.to/2iQemXc -- BMJ: “The scientific report guiding the US dietary guidelines: is it scientific?” -- “A Review of the Dietary Guidelines by the National Academy of Medicine” -- STEM-Talk with Gary Taubes -- “Statistical Review of US Macronutrient Consumption date, 1965-2011” -- “What if Bad Fat is Actually Good for You?” Show notes: 4:10: Interview begins with Nina talking about how her father, an engineer who also enjoyed computer science, sparked her interest in science. 5:41: Dawn asks Nina if she would share the story about her failed fruit-fly experiment in high school. 8:07: Nina talks about how an assignment to do a story on trans fats led her to become friends with journalist Gary Taubes, the author of “Good Calories, Bad Calories,” whom Dawn and Ken interviewed on episode 37 of STEM-Talk. 11:40: Dawn talks about an article Nina wrote for Men’s Health Magazine titled, “What If Bad Fat Is Actually Good for You?” It’s the article where Nina first laid out her case that saturated fats may not be bad for people’s health and might actually be good for people. Dawn asks Nina if she got pushback on that article. 14:07: Dawn asks about a paper Nina published in BMJ titled, “The Scientific Report Guiding the US Dietary Guidelines: Is It Scientific?”  Dawn asks Nina to describe what happened when 180 scientists wrote a letter asking BMJ to retract the paper. 19:52: Dawn comments about how the pushback to the article seemed to violate the very process that science is supposed to follow. 21:30: Ken comments about the orchestrated effort to make Nina look bad, which leads Nina to highlight the support she received from BMJ and its editor Fiona Godlee. 22:55: Nina talks about the difficulty a journalist faces when challenging the work of scientists from institutions like Harvard and Yale. 24:16: Ken mentions how we’re seeing more and more dogma dressed up as science, which that leads to a discussion between Ken, Dawn and Nina about the shortcomings of nutrition science. 30:32: Dawn comments that Nina has been quoted as saying that institutionalized science is an oxymoron, and once institutions started adopting the principle that saturated fat caused heart disease,...

Lately, the documentary "What the Health" has been receiving a lot of attention. It is persuasive and provocative. The movie is causing widespread concern about the dangers of consuming animal products. But what is the truth behind the hype? How much science backs the numerous health claims of the movie? Is going vegan the answer to avoiding cancer and chronic conditions? Or is there another side to this story? Nina Teicholz is our guest on today's episode. She is an investigative journalist and the author of "The Big Fat Surprise: Why Butter, Meat and Cheese Belong in a Healthy Diet." She has spent over a decade digging deep into scientific claims and shedding light on the misconceptions we have as a society about what constitutes a healthy diet. She asks hard questions and brings her investigative skills to bear, as we examine scientific evidence of the claims presented on What the Health. The bottom line? Upon close inspection, the studies and documentation for the health claims made by the movie don't hold water. There is more proof for the benefits of a diet that includes animal products than for one that does not. Nina offers resources for you to see for yourself, found in the links below. Soon, you will also be shaking your head and saying "What the health...what the heck!?" For a complete review of the movie by Nina, and a thorough pdf that looks at the support for each claim, go to dietdoctor.com.  For the highlights of this week's episode, go to westonaprice.org.  

Investigative journalist and New York Times bestselling author  Nina Teicholz is our guest today in Episode 1310 of “The Livin’ La Vida Low-Carb Show.” Every five years, the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) convenes a panel of experts on nutrition and health called the Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee to determine the Dietary Guidelines for Americans. But for investigative journalist Nina Teicholz, author of the New York Times bestselling book The Big Fat Surprise: Why Butter, Meat, and Cheese Belong in a Healthy Diet, she’s concerned that that general public is not being told about the incremental move towards a vegan diet.   Today’s interview guest is an investigative journalist named Nina Teicholz who has written columns for Gourmet magazine, The New Yorker, The Economist, The New York Times, and The Washington Post. After being asked by a publisher to write a book about the health impact of trans fats over a decade ago, Teicholz found a much deeper story that was more salacious and groundbreaking than even she realized at the time–the negative attention saturated fat receives as a culprit in disease was just plain wrong and the unfounded low-fat diet advice has been the most disastrous public health experiment in world history. The culmination of over a decade of research and writing has resulted in the release of her 2014 book The Big Fat Surprise: Why Butter, Meat and Cheese Belong in a Healthy Diet that has already hit the New York Times bestsellers list. Listen in to hear Jimmy and Nina discuss the latest disturbing developments with the Dietary Guidelines, the differences between her book and Gary Taubes’ classic Good Calories, Bad Calories, the history behind how the American Heart Association bought into the anti-saturated fat bias of Ancel Keys, how the anti-sugar work of John Yudkin was mocked and ridiculed by anti-fat proponents, the fraudulent way the Mediterranean diet was created (by Keys) and marketed as “healthy,” how the vilification of tropical oils like coconut oil actually led to the increased use of trans fats, how groups like the Center for the Science in the Public Interest led by Michal Jacobson have had such an influence with good and bad results, the problem with omega-6-rich polyunsaturated fats from vegetable oils producing oxidation products when heated, and so much more! This new book from Nina Teicholz takes the message of Taubes to the next level in a narrative form that makes the notion of a high-fat diet more mainstream that it’s ever been before. The tide is turning and this book is going to be a big reason why.

Today's interview is with Nina Teicholz, the New York Times best selling author of The Big Fat Surprise, Why Butter, Meat and Cheese Belong in a Healthy Diet. This book is nothing short of revolutionary. For decades we have been told that saturated fat, namely butter, meat and cheese, have no part in a healthy diet. We have been led to believe that this recommendation was clearly based in high quality science. Well, Nina blew the lid off that fallacy. Her book shows how poor that research actually is, and shows why we should not demonize or avoid saturated fat. She also has a fantastic message that we should not be promoting a one-diet-for-everyone approach. Our baseline metabolic health, our heritage, our genetics, and so much more makes us all individuals, and each individual will respond differently to different diets. So, whether you believe that saturated fats can be part of a heathy diet or not, hopefully you can come on board with her message that as a diverse society, we need a diverse set of nutritional practices to help us all heal and promote health. Also, I hope her book and her message continue to remind us all that we need to question our beliefs about nutrition and health and science in general. Things are not always as they seem, and we will never know that unless we ask the questions. For that, I applaud Nina. I hope you will too, and I hope you enjoy the interview.

On this episode of the Sustainable Dish podcast I speak with Nina Teicholtz, author of the The Big Fat Surprise: Why Butter, Meat and Cheese Belong in a Healthy Diet.

https://bengreenfieldfitness.com/bigfatsurprise OK, OK. Let's not beat around the bush here. In health circles, it's kind of old news now that "saturated fat might not be bad for you" and that sugar, starches and vegetable oil might instead be a primary contributory factor to heart disease and other chronic health problems. So when I got the book "" in the mail, I figured it would be the same ol', same ol' advice, like eat your egg yolks, don't be afraid of butter, and drink whole milk instead of skim milk. But I was actually surprised. Big, fat surprised. Heh. Why? Because in the book, author and investigative journalist Nina Teicholz not only lays out the most comprehensive history, treatise and full argument as to why saturated fats - the kind found in dairy, meat, and eggs - are not bad for health, but also takes a deep dive into everything from myths behind the Mediterranean Diet, to the heart killing replacement for trans fats you probably haven't heard about yet to the ethics of eating meat and beyond. The Economist named this book the best science book of 2014 and called it a “nutrition thriller”. The Wall Street Journal, Forbes, Mother Jones, Library Journal and Kirkus Reviews named it a *Best Book* of 2014. The British Medical Journal praised the book in an extensive review, and the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition said, “All scientists.. and every nutrition science professional…should read this book.” So who exactly is Nina? Before taking a deep dive into researching nutrition science for nearly a decade, she was a reporter for National Public Radio and also contributed to many publications, including the Wall Street Journal, New York Times, Washington Post, The New Yorker, and The Economist. She attended Yale and Stanford where she studied biology and majored in American Studies. She has a master’s degree from Oxford University and served as associate director of the Center for Globalization and Sustainable Development at Columbia University. She lives in New York City. And I'm guessing she probably has eggs and bacon for breakfast. During our discussion, you'll discover: -What compelled Nina to spend ten years writing a 500 page book after discovering shocking cover-ups in the nutrition industry...[10:55] -What researcher George Mann found in African populations who were subsisting on a diet of organs, meat and blood...[17:30] -Why Lewis and Clark were so disappointed in the game meat they discovered when traveling West...[27:10] -How Americans used to eat, and why it's a huge problem that we now eat so much poultry...[34:45 & 38:45] -What was the "remarking and troublesome omission" from the Ancel Keys study and why the "true" Mediterranean diet is far different than the Mediterranean diet you've probably seen in popular literature...[61:40] -The surprising truth behind why the Cretans were so long lived...[62:50] -How when trans fats got banned, they may have been replaced with something worse, and what that worse thing is...[68:35] -The biggest mistakes that people make when following a high fat diet...[78:40] -And much more!

1211 Talk It Up! (The Big Fat Surprise: Why Butter, Meat and Cheese Belong in a Healthy Diet / Nina Teicholz) Guest: Amos Kim & Grace Oh

In this week’s episode of Food, Sex & Life for the Modern Woman, Tawnee Prazak takes us through her journey of developing an eating disorder during her college years, and how she came out of that, recovering into what she has become now: a Holistic Endurance Coach. We go over the damages a woman’s body goes through when she’s an endurance athlete with the typical nutrition plan. She talks to us about getting real with the voices in our head and overcoming them, healing our bodies with functional medicine, what a healthy diet plan for women will look like to reach fat adaptation. We’ve talked a lot about functional medicine on the podcast previously. To get more in depth on the subject check out this interview:  What the ‘Bleep’ is Functional Medicine with Dr. Cole.   Functional Medicine and Endurance Sports Most of us are overtraining for what is healthy for us without the proper nutrition. It’s not just a matter of going out for a long run, and eating all our calories back with low quality foods. “We need to fuel to train, not train to fuel”   This is Tawnee’s sweet spot. Working with clients to find out exactly where their bodies are at in terms of hormone health and gut health, and making the changes necessary to still participate in endurance sports in the best health. On the podcast, she goes over some of the tests that can be ordered online to get this process started. There is so much good information in this episode, you’ll want to listen in a few times.   What is Fat Adaptation? First and foremost, this is not for someone who has not found hormonal balance or hasn’t dealt with their autoimmune symptoms. This is for someone in optimal health. In Tawnee’s words, this is the healthiest you can do for your body. It entails eating a lot of fat. And unfortunately, in the US we have been taught that fat is bad. There are evil fats out there, ie: donuts, twinkies, too much pizza, etc. And there are good fats, generally in the form of oils, ie: coconut oil. Fat adaptation is when the body uses fat for energy, rather than carbs or sugars. But we have to drastically reduce our carbohydrate and sugar intake to train the body to burn our fat instead. The bodies preferred energy source are carbs and sugars because they’re more readily available as glucose, whereas fat has to be converted into glucose in order to be burned for energy. The beauty of increasing our healthy fat intake, is that it helps us break out of carb and sugar addiction. It doesn’t mean you don’t eat carbs. It ‘s all about timing your macro nutrients and consuming quality carbs. Listen in to learn what Tawnee recommends for timing your carbs, fasted trainings, and differences between what works for men and what works best for women.     Tawnee’s 3 Habits to Ensure Her Health Journey: Infrared Sauna- very meditative Walking- her aha moment Interaction with water- It’s very therapeutic. Just float and feel it. Cold thermogenesis has many benefits as well. Not the first time we hear one of our guests rave about the benefits of plain ol’ walking. Check out The Four Pillars of Weight Loss- Part IV, Exercise with Jason Seib to learn more about how walking can be even more beneficial than any other exercise.   Tawnee’s Bio: Tawnee Prazak, MS, CSCS, of Laguna Beach, Calif., is a holistic endurance coach, multisport athlete and host/owner of the Endurance Planet podcast. She’s been involved in the endurance world for a decade, both as a competitive triathlete and also as one of today’s leading experts on endurance training, racing, nutrition, strength training and athlete wellness. Her own journey of recovering from being “fit but unhealthy” shaped her philosophy as a coach, and she now focuses on helping athletes optimize health and performance with cutting-edge and often “unconventional” techniques. She consults with athletes of all levels worldwide, and you can tune in to new podcasts on Endurance Planet twice a week. When not coaching or podcasting, Tawnee can be found running the trails, stand-up paddleboarding in the ocean, practicing yoga, swinging kettlebells, or in the kitchen creating the latest healthy meal.

180 Nutrition: This is the full and fascinating interview with investigative journalist and NYT bestselling author Nina Teicholz. In 2014, Nina released her book ‘The Big Fat Surprise’ that was nine years in the making. Within the book she reveals the unthinkable: that everything we thought we knew about dietary fats is wrong. The book received rave reviews including: “Most memorable healthcare book of 2014″ – Forbes.com “This book should be read by every nutrition science professional… All scientists should read it… well-researched and clearly written…” – The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition So sit back and join us as we cover some of the hottest topics in the world of health and nutrition:  Where the low fat theory came from and why it’s flawed Why Nina went from vegetarian to eating saturated animal fats The history of vegetable oils and why she goes out of her way to avoid them Why everybody’s carbohydrate tolerance varies Why exercising more is not the answer to long term health The best style of exercise for health and weight loss And much much more… Take the Quiz & Discover Your #1 Health & Weight Loss Road Block Here:180nutrition.com.au Transcript So, if you’re wondering what Nina’s all about, well the title of the book is a slight giveaway, but yes, dietary fat. And if you’ve been frustrated over the years, like myself and Stu, about the mixed messages of nutrition and what the hell’s going on, Nina sets the record straight today. Especially when it comes to what fats we should be eating, what fats we should be avoiding and even the whole debate around vegetable oils, which I avoid like the plague anyways. I don’t even debate about it anymore. So, there’s gems of information. Now, I must admit, I didn’t know a great deal about Nina, but she came highly recommended and this is the first time I met on this podcast today and I thought she was an absolute rock star. She was awesome. And yeah, it was a pleasure interviewing her and yeah, you’ll get a lot out of it. Stick with it, because it’s action-packed and it’s probably a podcast I’m going to listen to twice, just to make sure I understand all the information. Last, but not least, I know I ask every episode, but if you could leave a review for us. If you’re enjoying these podcasts and you get something out of it, all I ask is that you leave a review. Five star it and subscribe to it. This is going to help other people reach this information too so they can benefit from it as well. One of my ambitions is to get the Health Sessions into the top ten on iTunes, in the health and fitness space and I really need your help to do that. So, we’re definitely gathering momentum. We’re moving up the charts and this would mean a lot to us if you just took two minutes to do that. Anyway, let’s go on to Nina. It’s an awesome podcast. Enjoy. Guy Lawrence: Hi, this is Guy Lawrence. I’m joined with Stuart Cooke. Hi, Stewie. Stuart Cooke: Hello buddy. Guy Lawrence: And our lovely guest today is Nina Teicholz. Nina, welcome to the show. Nina Teicholz: Thanks for having me. It’s good to be here. Guy Lawrence: It’s awesome. Very excited about today. It’s a topic that definitely fascinates us. We’ve had various people coming on the show, talking about all things, fat especially, and looking forward to getting your collective experience over the years and being able to share it with us and our audience. Yeah, it’s going to be awesome. So, it’s much appreciated, Nina. So, just to get the show started and the ball rolling, would you mind just sharing a little bit about yourself, what you do and your own personal journey for everyone? Nina Teicholz: Right. Well, I’m a journalist. I’ve been a journalist for decades. I live in New York City. And about a decade ago I sort of plunged into this whole area of nutrition. And that started because I was doing a series of investigative food pieces for Gourmet Magazine, which is a food magazine in the states. And I was assigned to do a story about trans fats, which are now famous, but back then nobody really knew about it. I wrote this story that kind of broke that whole topic open in the U.S. That led to a book contract and I started writing a book about trans fats. And then I realized that there was this whole, huge, untold story about dietary fat in general and how our nutrition polices seemed to have gotten it terribly wrong. And then after that it was decade of reading every single nutrition science study I could get my hands on and just doing this, like, deep dive into nutrition science. At the end of which I wrote this book called, or I came out with a book that was published last year, called “The Big Fat Surprise: Why Butter, Meat and Cheese Belong in a Healthy Diet.” That book has been controversial, but also successful. It became a bestseller internationally in, you know, it really was the first book to really make the case for why not only fat was good for health, but saturated fat. You know, in butter, dairy, meat, cheese, the kind of fat in animal foods was not bad for health. Read Full Transcript Here: http://180nutrition.com.au/?p=19585  

On this Cutting the Curd Book Review, host Diane Stemple talks to Nina Teicholz, investigative journalist and author of The Big Fat Surprise: Why Butter, Meat and Cheese Belong in a Healthy Diet. Tune in to hear how certain fats might be the key to reversing the epidemics of obesity, diabetes, and heart disease. This program was brought to you by Academie Opus Caseus. “The book has been called a nutrition thriller. It really attempts to tell this question that is at the center of everyone’s mind which is: why are we as a nation getting so fact and sick?” [3:20] “It’s impossible, I think, for these large institutions to be the stewards of good science.” [14:15] —Nina Teicholz on Cutting the Curd

Nina Teicholz, the "nutritional Sherlock Holmes," took nine years to craft her new book, "The Big Fat Surprise: Why Butter, Meat, and Cheese Belong in a Healthy Diet." She speaks with Rootstock Radio host Theresa Marquez about what it took to create this enlightening account.

A decade ago, investigative journalist Nina Techolz set out to uncover the truth about our country's misguided conception that eating delicious butter, beef, and cheese would make us fat and give us heart attacks.  What she found was a shocking trail of incomplete scientific data, one man's maniacal mission to squelch conflicting information, and an authoritative body on nutrition taking handouts from Big Food, Inc. In this incredibly open, honest interview, Nina touches on a little bit of what's covered extensively in her new book, “The Big Fat Surprise:  Why Butter, Meat, & Cheese Belong in a Healthy Diet.”   Prepare to be shocked with: ·      The American Heart Association's affiliation with Proctor & Gamble. ·      How one man bullied his anti-fat agenda into the hearts and bodies of the American people, and why the community of nutrition experts was afraid to speak out. ·      What should be on your dinner plate? (Bacon?  Please say bacon.) ·      Nina's advice to women about how to fight the saturated fat phobia. In this podcast, you can find out about the bacon… and all of the secret history explaining why we think that eating fat makes us fat.  You'll be relieved to know that the foods that should be on your dinner plate are way more delicious than a frozen, low-fat, weight-control dinner.  Trust me, I know.    PODCAST NOTES We hear a lot of conflicting information about fat, but what's the real story? I was a low-fat vegetarian.  As an investigative journalist, I was sent on an assignment to write a restaurant review column.  There was no food stipend, and the chef's didn't want to send out grilled chicken and sautéed vegetables.  The chefs wanted to send out red meat, cream, sauce, and pate.  This was my introduction to this way of eating.  All of a sudden, I lost the stubborn 10 pounds I'd been struggling with and my cholesterol markers looked great! I wanted to try to understand the history of why we believe what we do about saturated fat—and those efforts culminated in “The Big Fat Surprise.” 1950's:  The nation panicked over the epidemic of heart disease—it was the #1 killer.  A scientist name Ancel Keys proposed that saturated fats were the dietary culprit.  He was a charismatic, forceful man who got his hypothesis into the American Diabetes Association. There were NO SCIENTIFIC TRIALS to back his hypothesis. His theory was based on epidemiological studies in seven countries that were cherry-picked to support his hypothesis.  ·      He deliberately avoided countries like France, where they consume a diet rich in saturated fats but enjoy very low rates of heart disease.  ·      PLUS, he went to Crete during lent—when they were abstaining from meats and rich foods! ·      There were no clinical studies to follow up his studies.  After 50 years of following recommended low-fat diet guidelines, we are sicker than ever with a skyrocketing heart attack rate.  What they've been telling us is wrong.  We subsequently have clinical trials proving that Ancel Keys' hypothesis is not supported. Unfortunately, as a culture, our ingrained ideas are more from advertising than science. Suddenly, we were told to eat unsaturated fats like vegetable and grain oils instead of saturated fats like butter and lard.  Why? 1948:  $1.7 million went into the coffer of the American Heart Association from Proctor & Gamble.  The edible-oil producing company sponsored the AHA's radio show and continues to back this authoritative body—which continues to recommend vegetable oils over butter and lard. Big Food has been very wise about steering the conversation about nutrition in this country.  In fact, one VP of a big edible-oil company was quoted as saying, “If you pay $25,000 for a University study, you can ensure it will say what you want.” While you can't totally rig a study, you can sway it so you don't look so bad, or so that your product looks more favorable than it should. Why was the American public so easily steered into believing that just-invented foods like soy milk and soy hamburgers would restore our health?  We had just landed on the moon.  The science mindset was prevalent as we reevaluated what it meant to be a human being.  All of these new things were “invented,” so they must be good.  Faith in scientific invention left Americans open to these ideas. Women's magazines told housewives to ditch the “old way” of doing things, to put away lard and butter with the spinning wheel and grab a can of Crisco made by scientists in a sparkling factory instead!  As a nation of immigrants removed from our traditions, we were quick to leave our heritage behind. The reality is that fats have been prized over time, and many scientists have proven over and over again that diets higher in fat are beneficial to health. ·      The Inuit consumed a diet comprised of 70% - 80% saturated fat, and they had no diabetes or heart disease. ·      According to George Mann's research, the African Massai consumed a diet of primarily blood, meat, and fat.  The electrocardiographs of 400 Massai men revealed almost no traces of heart attack. The nutritional expert community became so closed to any ideas other than the idea that fat and saturated fat were bad for you, that the idea became enshrined as dogma so early on that any opposing idea was shunned. Ancel Keys would literally call people names in print when they disagreed with his theory, so much so that nutrition became a blood sport.  Scientists with opposing viewpoints lost their research grants and were shut down and discredited.  He would smear their names so they couldn't work in their field. By the 1980's, critics of Ancel's anti-fat theory ceased because to criticize was professional suicide.  Honest, open debate was silenced.  George Mann, who studied the Massai, was a critic and it cost him his research grant. So, what did we eat before the 1940's?  There's a common misconception that we were primarily a plant-eating people.  This theory was based on really bad data.  In fact, we ate: ·      3 – 4 times more red meat ·      3 – 4 times more butter ·      5 – 6 times more lard Vegetables were considered so nutritionally poor that they were not worth growing—they were a luxury.  Before we could import kiwi and avocado, where were we getting our fruits and vegetables?  Unless you were living in a tropical climate, fruit and vegetable consumption was season and sparse. “Historical facts move you to rethink this idea that returning to a plant-based diet is a good idea.” What role do vegetables and greens play in a healthy diet?  Once we decided to cut meat, cheese, butter, dairy, and eggs out of our diet, that created a vacuum, a big empty space on the plate of the American diet that had to be filled with something.  That's where the drive to eat more fruits and veggies came from. Saying that a vegetarian diet is off-based is one thing, and it's another to say that vegetables aren't part of a healthy diet.  In fact, there are people who are incredible endurance athletes who are on a plant-based diet. From the scientific perspective, the reason diets of all different kinds work for people is:  Most diets say to cut out sweets and desserts.  Just by cutting out sugar, high fructose corn syrup, flour—just by getting rid of those things, everybody can lose weight, look better, and feel better.  This is the basic starting point of why diets work. Bodies of large rigorous clinical trials show that a high fat (50%+) diet is better than low fat in terms of markers like diabetes, obesity, and heart disease.   You can lose more weight on this kind of diet and lower those markers. Yes, you should eat fruits and vegetables, but you have to be mindful about how many carbs they are adding!  Some fruits are high in sugar, and some starchy vegetables are high in carbohydrates. If you are a naturally lean person, you can do a lot more with your diet—you have a lot more leeway.  But if you're obese, or someone fighting diabetes or heart disease, you are more sensitive to carbohydrates so you have to be careful about them in your diet. The science has been reevaluated:  Saturated fats were unfairly accused of causing heart disease.  They do not cause heart disease. The foods that we've been avoiding are nutritionally dense, depleting us of:  folate, selenium, zinc, iron, vitamins A, D, E, K and fat-soluble vitamins.  Evidence supports the benefit of bringing these foods back into our diet. Part of the problem is the word “fat.”  We use it for so many bad things.  What we don't often realize is that sugar is stored as fat, but dietary fat is used as energy. Nina, what are you eating?  Eggs, bacon, sausage, cheese, nuts, leftovers, hamburgers, stews with bone broth, vegetables, chicken, fish.  Generally speaking, no pasta or breads around the house. It's harder for women to eat more fat because there's a phobia about it.  What would you say to women who want to change to a high-fat diet?  It's so delicious and you're not hungry!  Many women have succumbed to the constant obsession with calorie-counting.  Here's the paradox:  “The more you shift to protein and fat, the less craving you have for other foods!”  For women, it's such an ugly handmaiden to be worried about food all the time.  It's wonderful to be free of that. To lose weight on a low-fat diet, a woman has to consume less than 900 calories per day.  That's deprivation.  To have the government saying, “Here's our solution for you:  Starvation,” that's no acceptable. What are you up to and where can we find you? Promoting the new book, “The Big Fat Surprise:  Why Butter, Meat, & Cheese Belong in a Healthy Diet.”   You can check me out on my web site, www.thebigfatsurprise.com. I'm also looking for someone to found the Parents for Whole Milk Movement.  It's such a tragedy that we are depriving our children of whole milk, instead option for 2% and making that the standard in our schools.  It's time to generate a change in nutrition policy, and that could come from this kind of movement.  Anyone out there interested? The key is simplicity:  The answers aren't found in fads… and don't be afraid to make a change.

Suddenly, we were told to eat unsaturated fats like vegetable and grain oils instead of saturated fats like butter and lard.  Why? 1948:  $1.7 million went into the coffer of the American Heart Association from Proctor & Gamble.  The edible-oil producing company sponsored the AHA's radio show and continues to back this authoritative body—which continues to recommend vegetable oils over butter and lard. Big Food has been very wise about steering the conversation about nutrition in this country.  In fact, one VP of a big edible-oil company was quoted as saying, “If you pay $25,000 for a University study, you can ensure it will say what you want.” While you can't totally rig a study, you can sway it so you don't look so bad, or so that your product looks more favorable than it should. Why was the American public so easily steered into believing that just-invented foods like soy milk and soy hamburgers would restore our health?  We had just landed on the moon.  The science mindset was prevalent as we reevaluated what it meant to be a human being.  All of these new things were “invented,” so they must be good.  Faith in scientific invention left Americans open to these ideas. Women's magazines told housewives to ditch the “old way” of doing things, to put away lard and butter with the spinning wheel and grab a can of Crisco made by scientists in a sparkling factory instead!  As a nation of immigrants removed from our traditions, we were quick to leave our heritage behind. The reality is that fats have been prized over time, and many scientists have proven over and over again that diets higher in fat are beneficial to health. ·      The Inuit consumed a diet comprised of 70% - 80% saturated fat, and they had no diabetes or heart disease. ·      According to George Mann's research, the African Massai consumed a diet of primarily blood, meat, and fat.  The electrocardiographs of 400 Massai men revealed almost no traces of heart attack. The nutritional expert community became so closed to any ideas other than the idea that fat and saturated fat were bad for you, that the idea became enshrined as dogma so early on that any opposing idea was shunned. Ancel Keys would literally call people names in print when they disagreed with his theory, so much so that nutrition became a blood sport.  Scientists with opposing viewpoints lost their research grants and were shut down and discredited.  He would smear their names so they couldn't work in their field. By the 1980's, critics of Ancel's anti-fat theory ceased because to criticize was professional suicide.  Honest, open debate was silenced.  George Mann, who studied the Massai, was a critic and it cost him his research grant. So, what did we eat before the 1940's?  There's a common misconception that we were primarily a plant-eating people.  This theory was based on really bad data.  In fact, we ate: ·      3 – 4 times more red meat ·      3 – 4 times more butter ·      5 – 6 times more lard Vegetables were considered so nutritionally poor that they were not worth growing—they were a luxury.  Before we could import kiwi and avocado, where were we getting our fruits and vegetables?  Unless you were living in a tropical climate, fruit and vegetable consumption was season and sparse. “Historical facts move you to rethink this idea that returning to a plant-based diet is a good idea.” What role do vegetables and greens play in a healthy diet?  Once we decided to cut meat, cheese, butter, dairy, and eggs out of our diet, that created a vacuum, a big empty space on the plate of the American diet that had to be filled with something.  That's where the drive to eat more fruits and veggies came from. Saying that a vegetarian diet is off-based is one thing, and it's another to say that vegetables aren't part of a healthy diet.  In fact, there are people who are incredible endurance athletes who are on a plant-based diet. From the scientific perspective, the reason diets of all different kinds work for people is:  Most diets say to cut out sweets and desserts.  Just by cutting out sugar, high fructose corn syrup, flour—just by getting rid of those things, everybody can lose weight, look better, and feel better.  This is the basic starting point of why diets work. Bodies of large rigorous clinical trials show that a high fat (50%+) diet is better than low fat in terms of markers like diabetes, obesity, and heart disease.   You can lose more weight on this kind of diet and lower those markers. Yes, you should eat fruits and vegetables, but you have to be mindful about how many carbs they are adding!  Some fruits are high in sugar, and some starchy vegetables are high in carbohydrates. If you are a naturally lean person, you can do a lot more with your diet—you have a lot more leeway.  But if you're obese, or someone fighting diabetes or heart disease, you are more sensitive to carbohydrates so you have to be careful about them in your diet. The science has been reevaluated:  Saturated fats were unfairly accused of causing heart disease.  They do not cause heart disease. The foods that we've been avoiding are nutritionally dense, depleting us of:  folate, selenium, zinc, iron, vitamins A, D, E, K and fat-soluble vitamins.  Evidence supports the benefit of bringing these foods back into our diet. Part of the problem is the word “fat.”  We use it for so many bad things.  What we don't often realize is that sugar is stored as fat, but dietary fat is used as energy. Nina, what are you eating?  Eggs, bacon, sausage, cheese, nuts, leftovers, hamburgers, stews with bone broth, vegetables, chicken, fish.  Generally speaking, no pasta or breads around the house. It's harder for women to eat more fat because there's a phobia about it.  What would you say to women who want to change to a high-fat diet?  It's so delicious and you're not hungry!  Many women have succumbed to the constant obsession with calorie-counting.  Here's the paradox:  “The more you shift to protein and fat, the less craving you have for other foods!”  For women, it's such an ugly handmaiden to be worried about food all the time.  It's wonderful to be free of that. To lose weight on a low-fat diet, a woman has to consume less than 900 calories per day.  That's deprivation.  To have the government saying, “Here's our solution for you:  Starvation,” that's no acceptable. What are you up to and where can we find you?

I'm also looking for someone to found the Parents for Whole Milk Movement.  It's such a tragedy that we are depriving our children of whole milk, instead option for 2% and making that the standard in our schools.  It's time to generate a change in nutrition policy, and that could come from this kind of movement.  Anyone out there interested? The key is simplicity:  The answers aren't found in fads… and don't be afraid to make a change.

Author of The Big Fat Surprise: Why Butter, Meat and Cheese Belong in a Healthy Diet, Nina Teicholz comes on the show. We discover how saturated fat is actually vital to a healthy diet and how we've all been duped into thinking a low-fat diet is the best thing for us.

Low-fat, non-fat and “heart healthy”.. we’ve heard it all. Americans are constantly avoiding the “f” word to try and stay fit and healthy, but should fat be an essential part of a healthy diet? Nina Taicholz thinks so. She’s the author of “The Big Fat Surprise: Why Butter, Meat and Cheese Belong in a Healthy Diet”, and she’s this week’s guest on Eat Your Words with guest-host Talia Ralph. How did we start to think that saturated fat was bad for us? Why are fad diets constantly proven wrong? Can you finally feel good about putting mountains of butter on your toast? Tune in and find out on a fat-friendly edition of Eat Your Words. This program was sponsored by The International Culinary Center. “Fat is the nutrient that’s been targeted the most – and I’ve realized that all of our nutrition recommendations over the past 50 years have turned out to be wrong!” [03:00] “This story [of low-fat diets] is a failure of scientists – good intentioned men who really wanted to solve the heart disease epidemic, believed this is the best possible solution and jumped the gun before it was ready.” [11:00] “There’s a small group of nutrition aristocrats who control all the expert panels and are in charge of all the studies. They control the nutrition agenda in the country.” [14:00] “My book is not a diet book – it’s a book of science and history.” [20:00] –Nina Taicholz on Eat Your Words
