Hello and Happy Spring to you!

My world was turned upside down when I read The Big Fat Surprise by Nina Teicholz a few years back. So, when I saw this recent interview of Nina, I wanted to share.

Here's an excerpt from the description of the interview -

"Nina 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.

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.

The story is as much about politics as it is about science."

Check out the interview and let me know what you think.

Here's to a long and positive healthspan!
