To help us navigate these questions and then some, returning to the show this week is award-winning investigative science writer, speaker and bestselling author, Gary Taubes.
Gary studied applied physics at Harvard University, aerospace engineering at Stanford, and journalism at Columbia University.
And fortunately for all of us, Gary has dedicated his work as of late to tearing down conventional nutritional theory with his research lectures and books, including a few titles, you've probably heard of, “Good Calories, Bad Calories,” “Why We Get Fat,” “The Case Against Sugar,” and his new book that we'll be talking about today, “The Case for Keto.”
