Ep. #883: Is There a Healthiest Diet?


Listen Later

What is the healthiest diet in the world? That’s something I’m often asked, and a question many researchers have tried to answer.

Unfortunately, many of the most popular answers aren’t the best ones. They’re either not quite accurate or ridiculously wrong, which is mostly a function of marketing. A lot of fad diets get attention because they are marketed well.

Too many fad diets focus on restricting certain foods or food groups, instead of encouraging you to eat others. Often the restrictions are based on bad science, faulty logic, or marketing puffery.

Luckily, the healthiest diet on the planet is quite simple, and I’m going to explain the handful of guidelines in this podcast.
