A NATION OF SICK PEOPLE

  • We are a nation of sick people.
    • Nina wanted to find out why.
  • There’s an incredible bad science foundation.
    • In the 1950s, we had the runaway train of bad advice: that fat was bad.
      • It could never be proven true, yet we continue with them.
  • Check out her book which discusses this: https://ninateicholz.com/about/the-big-fat-surprise/.
    • Nina talks about good fat vs. bad fat and all the myths in that space.
  • It talks about animals, politics, culture, and more.
  • When Nina had to start writing on this, it forced her to adopt a mindset different than the one she held.
    • She was used to the CICO, low fat, vegetarian mentality.
      • However, since she learned about low carb, high fat, she’s gotten healthier and lost weight.
  • It’s hard to combat this when there’s so much censoring of the keto community.

SATURATED FATS

  • We’ve come to demonize sat fats.
  • However, the science largely doesn’t support this.
  • A lot of Nina’s work focuses on this.
  • So many of the scientists who have debunked the BS have not received the acclaim they should.
