Can we say what diet is best for health with David Katz, MD

In Episode #108 I sit down with Dr David Katz, MD who in my opinion, is one of the greatest voices of clarity in a space of science which let's be frank, is littered with confusion tactics, hidden agendas and bias. This is a great episode which reinforces many of the key principles that I have been sharing with you via social media and on this show for the past 2 + years. It also emphasises the 3 pillars that I look to when making my personal food decisions - the pillar of human health, planetary health and animal welfare. In this episode we specifically talk about: •Why an infectious disease pandemic may be what we need to take chronic disease more seriously •The number one risk factor for chronic disease in developed countries •Why debating the little stuff is keeping us from making impact on the big stuff •The characteristics of an optimal diet •Can we say what the single best diet is •The importance of the replacement nutrient in nutrition science •The use of strawman diets in nutrition science •Should we eat fish? What are the considerations here? •Would adding animal products to an optimally planned vegan diet improve one's health •and much more I really hope you enjoy the show.
