Are we blaming red meat and butter for the problems vegetable oil caused?
Contrary to popular belief, there is no correlation between either saturated fat or animal fat consumption and heart attacks.
Despite that fact, doctors learn that there is.
So why does the American Heart Association lie to doctors and the public about the true cause of heart disease?
All the way back in the 1950’s, Ancel Keys manipulated and falsified data to blame butter, red meat, and saturated fats for heart disease.
The American Heart Association has been misleading us about the cause of heart disease ever since.
This indoctrination of physicians, dietitians and the public enabled Big Oil and Big Food to flood the American diet with cheaply produced industrial vegetable and seed oils that alter our body chemistry in unfortunate and unnatural ways.
The very diet doctors recommend as healthy is making us sick.
Consuming industrial vegetable oils, like corn, canola, cottonseed, soy, sunflower, safflower, rice bran, and grapeseed oils disrupts cellular energy metabolism and leads to toxicity, oxidative stress and disease in the body.
Conversely, avoiding newfangled industrial junk oils and replacing them with traditional fats like butter, tallow, olive oil, and coconut oil can help restore metabolic health. This week’s guest is here to set the record straight.
