According to Dr. Knobbe, at the end of the American Civil War:
Only about 1% of the population was obese
Heart disease was almost unheard of
Cancer and diabetes were exceedingly rare
Alzheimer’s and age-related macular degeneration were unknown
In other words, chronic disease was rare in America, which is not the case today.
Although animal fats, sugar, and carbohydrates often take the blame for our rising disease rates, Dr. Knobbe's new book, The Ancestral Diet Revolution, argues that the real dietary villains are the vegetable oils that have replaced traditional animal fats.
Tune in to this week’s podcast to uncover why seed oils might be more critical to avoid than sugar, along with these fascinating insights:
What seed oils were used for before they became food
Why sugar consumption (and maybe even carbs) may be less dangerous than seed oils
The two mechanisms by which vegetable oils cause issues in the body
What OXLAMS are and why they should concern us
How vegetable oils can lead to fatigue and weight gain
What to eat on a truly ancestral diet
How to choose healthful animal products
And so much more!
Dr. Knobbe’s extensive research into this subject blew me away, and I sincerely hope you enjoy this podcast as much as I did.
