You've been told to trust the experts. To eat more grains. To fear fat. But what if the very foundation of our nutrition guidelines was built not on science—but on religion, corporate funding, and government agendas?

In this eye-opening solo episode, Nate Palmer breaks down the wild (and true) history behind the food pyramid. From enemas and yogurt colonics at Battle Creek Sanitarium, to Kellogg's anti-sex cereal crusade, to the billions that Big Food and Big Ag poured into shaping what you eat today—this episode is a masterclass in how we got here… and how to escape it.

If you've ever wondered why the standard American diet is so broken, this is your moment of clarity.

What You'll Learn:

• Why the food pyramid was never based on health—but on economics and politics

• The bizarre religious roots of our dietary guidelines (yes, cereal was invented to stop masturbation)

• How the USDA's dual mission created a massive conflict of interest

• The real reason fat was demonized—and who profited most from it

• How corporate donations to organizations like the American Heart Association shaped public perception

• What you can do today to eat against the pyramid and reclaim your health
