Brad Marshall is the author of the Blog Fire In A Bottle and the creator of The Croissant Diet.  Mildly obsessed with food and its history, his work focuses on trying to place current ideas about diet, including keto and carnivore diets into the framework of traditional Dietary patterns.     Brad has a genetics degree from Cornell, a certificate from The French Culinary Institute, has studied cancer at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer center and worked as a programmer for the Berkeley Drosophila Genome Project.  He spent the last 15 years raising rotationally grazed pastured pork on his farm in upstate New York while running a butcher shop, local food restaurant and USDA inspected meat processing facility.   Brad is also the founder of Firebrand Meats, which is dedicated to producing pork and poultry products that are low in Linoleic acid, the n6 polyunsaturated fat (PUFA) whose intake has seen a dramatic worldwide increase in the last century.     https://reddit.com/r/SaturatedFat    Time Stamps: 0:13:55 Podcast Begins 0:15:14 Emmy's story https://fireinabottle.net/emmys-story/ 0:15:16 Change your fat, change your life 0:20:55 Disastrous Trends In American Bacon    https://fireinabottle.net/polyunsaturated-fat-pufa-in-pork-and-chicken/ 0:23:55 The problem with pork and chicken in the US 0:30:12 Brad's fascinating background 0:36:19 The croissant diet 0:45:27 Stearic acid vs linoleic acid 0:47:32 Plateaus on a ketogenic diet 0:53:54 Linoleic acid is the likely culprit 0:55:25 The shortcomings of the ketogenic understanding   0:58:58 The feasting mimicking diet 1:04:46 ROS is Satiation https://fireinabottle.net/ros-is-satiation/ 1:08:18 How linoleic acid affects blood glucose and satiety <s
