Truth and love are the things that matter.
Dr. Jay Wortman discusses how the self-serving food industry fought a public relations war against a resurgence of low-carb dieting in the early 2000s. The food industry doesn’t want people eating low carb since carbohydrate foods are far more profitable.
Mary Enig was one of our world’s foremost authorities on fats and oils, a PhD nutritional biochemist. The claim that saturated animal fats cause heart disease and should be replaced with vegetable oils is one of the worst health myths of the 20th century.
What causes obesity is not a mystery. This has been well known since the 1800s, but unfortunately it is not taught to doctors in medical schools. It is excessive starches and sugars that causes obesity, and the proper treatment is a low-carbohydrate diet.
The false claim that saturated fat causes heart disease is a perfect example of how a big lie, if repeated often enough, is eventually believed. There is nothing unhealthy about a high-fat, low-carb diet. Humans have eaten this way for millions of years.
