Promoting Mixed Messages
- Chris discovered an article in VegNews: a vegan Italian cookbook. (5:00)
- They divert to a bit of Italian-American history, which has had its challenges. (6:00)
- Back to the VegNews article: They ponder how an Italian meal can be vegan. (12:15)
- Vinnie’s family grew veggies, but all the Italian meals centered around meat.
- There was a keto trial—a small trial—but testing high cholesterol. (22:00)
- They discuss how many studies have been misrepresented by not including countries whose cultural diets contain a lot of meat.
- Blue Zones has been misrepresented as well.
- The diets vary, and the level of meat is far more than what tends to be represented.
- The one thing all the Blue Zone cultures have in common is an active outdoor lifestyle. (37:00)
- If you want to get rid of heart disease, you must get rid of processed foods. (38:00)
- Lean Mass Hyper Responders have a different starting point to consider. (40:00)
- High cholesterol (LDL) in and of itself is not necessarily a problem; you need to look at it in conjunction with other factors. (42:00)
- The ADA launched the American Obesity Association. Novo Nordisk has contributed funds to the ADA. Novo Nordisk is the company that brought us Wegovy. (51:00)
- GLP-1s are not a Magic Pill; if they were, they wouldn’t have deadly side effects. (52:30)
- The ADA amended its guidelines to say that GLP-1s should be the “first line of defense” of correction for T2 diabetes, rather than lifestyle. (54:00)
- The ADA is disengenuous because it receives millions of dollars from Big Food corporations each year to *not* tell you to cut out sugar and processed foods. (55:00)
- The information the ADA gives cannot entirely be trusted because of the sources of funding it receives.
