The Health Investment Podcast with Brooke Simonson

Myth vs. Truth: Carbs, Cholesterol, Intermittent Fasting, Artificial Sweeteners & More! | Adrian Chavez


Listen Later

EPISODE 142 – Adrian Chavez holds a doctorate in Nutrition and Health Promotion where his research was focused on creating lifestyle interventions for the prevention of heart disease and type 2 diabetes. After his PhD, he had plans of staying in academic research but was frustrated with the lack of impact that his work was having and decided to start creating courses, programs, and free content online. Over the last 6 years since leaving academia, Adrian has helped thousands of people through his courses and programs and has impacted many more through the free content he puts out through his podcast, social media, and by giving lectures on various topics related to nutrition and health. You can find him on Instagram @Dr.Adrian.Chavez and also via The Nutrition Science Podcast, which he is the host of. In the episode, Adrian busts myths about cholesterol, intermittent fasting, artificial sweeteners, added sugar…and more!

QUESTIONS I ASK ADRIAN IN THE EPISODE:

  • Can you start off by telling us a bit about your background? (Specifically, what led you to get a PhD in nutrition?)
  • Why do you call yourself an anti-biohacker?
  • I’d love to spend the rest of our time discussing myths vs. truths, where I name a hotly debated topic and you share myths/misconceptions vs. the actual truth: cholesterol; intermittent fasting/time-restricted feeding; artificial sweeteners; added sugar, fats, and oils; carbs; and seed oils.
