129: If you eat fat – you NEED to hear this

by | Dec 21, 2020 | 2 comments

After my recent interview with Dr. Joel Fuhrman, I got A LOT of questions about my stance on oil.

And it makes sense.

As some listeners might have noticed, Dr F and I don’t exactly see eye to eye about the benefits of certain plant-based oils.

That’s why in this episode, I discuss why all oils are NOT bad, the TRUTH about canola oil (even my followers will be surprised), and why my critics are simply WRONG about olive oil.

On this episode you’ll learn: 

  • The reason many health professionals are WRONG about oil (and the scientific reason they’re not all bad)(1:00)
  • Why FRUIT may be causing you to produce this dangerous fat (and how you can stop it from happening)(5:40)
  • Why eating THIS just before a heavy meal may actually help PROTECT your blood vessels(7:30)
  • Why this supposedly “evil” fatty acid may actually support a healthy heart(10:30)
  • The TRUTH about canola oil – and the #1 RULE for enjoying it (and even benefiting from it!)(15:30)
  • The REAL reason most meat-eating is dangerous for heart health(18:00)
  • Why my critics are simply WRONG about olive oil(23:15)
  • How to avoid the fat that could be DESTROYING your memory and energy levels(27:00)
  • How olive oil could increase cholesterol levels – and why that’s NOT necessarily cause for alarm(29:10)
  • Why consuming a liter of olive oil a week will NOT lead to weight gain (it may even help you LOSE weight)(30:40)
  • The “Japanese secret” for supporting healthy blood pressure levels(34:40)
  • How your DIET can help support a brighter mood(39:30)
