Nutrition has become complicated on purpose. Not by accident... by design.
Keegan sits down with Shane, Brendan, and Jessica to break down why
the nutrition industry profits from your confusion, and what "boring"
nutrition actually looks like when you strip the noise away.
In this episode:
- Why fad diets all boil down to the same trick... restriction wearing
a different name
- The 2019 NIH metabolic ward study that proved it: people given
ultra-processed food ate 500 more calories a day than people given
whole food, with every other variable controlled
- The "healthy" food marketing trap — how vegan burgers, gluten-free
Oreos, and protein pop-tarts are built to sound better than they are
- Why the scale is lying to you, and what to track instead
- The study that found people underestimate what they eat by 1,000
calories a day... without exception
- The only three supplements Shane, Brendan, and Jessica actually
recommend, out of a $177 billion industry mostly selling you nothing
- And Shane's jaw-wired-shut story. You'll want to hear this one.
This is the general nutrition conversation. If you want the practical,
step-by-step protocol we didn't cover here, that's free inside The
Longevity Lab community on Skool.
