Yes, I am a victim of Jane Brody's Good Food Book and still have my old copy somewhere. Used to read it voraciously in the 1980s, age 20s, when I had a 22" waistline, hourglass figure, and was slim/trim/water skiier/runner, and used many of those concepts and recipes for years in the interest of "staying healthy". Much to my detriment. Today at age 62, I have the entire suite of metabolic syndrome (HBP, fatty liver, high triglycerides, low HDL, high LDL, type 2 diabetes/insulin resistance, some floating gallstones, fibroids, including PCOS and postmenopausal endometrial hyperplasia, beginning to experience vision impairment). Of course not all that is due to Jane Brody. Have always been nearsighted to point of eyeglasses since 5th grade, and am extremely nearsighted today - worst than 20/600 at this point. The doctors do not even tell you how bad vision is anymore. Recently read a study that even nearsightedness is related to high sugar consumption. Why don't doctors tell us that??? Doctor prescribed Trulicity and statin but I refused both and immediately went on keto. Six weeks into keto, my blood sugars are down from 265 to 99-125 range, 22 pounds off of high of 262 (I estimate first 12 lbs were water weight), energy and mobility are already back, vision improved, clarity of thought returning, feeling so much better. Long way to go, but it is a new way of life. Two more months before insurance (USA) will pay for new lipid panel and tests so I can see lipid progress and how far A1C decreased from high of 12.5. The "system" very much works against us. Have to wait two months to see if I am out of the "danger zone".

It works great. So long as we happen to own pharmaceutical companies or work as doctors. Otherwise, it's a load of crap. After having a hemorrhagic stroke and a week in intensive care I found Noakes, Fung, Berg, Lustig, and Low Carb Down under and others. I switched to high-saturated fat and low carb diet with no vegetable oil or processed food from the standard western diet. Went from having hypertension, sleep apnea, life-long allergies, pre-diabetes, frequent flu's and more; I have not been sick once in three years and all the above conditions are gone completely. No medication at all. I do supplement with vitamin D4/K2 and magnesium. I also eat a lot of salt.

I know how you feel. I am 63 years old and 4 years ago I had 2 stents placed in my artery due to a 99% blockage. That sparked a 4 year research on my part to find out why this happened to me because - wait for it - I thought I was doing right by following the "FOOD GUIDE". To say the least what I found was at first shocking, then frustrating which then led to anger. I decided I would discuss my wanting off medications including Statins. At the beginning of this year I finally had a follow up with my Cardiologist (due to the back log from Covid) for a stress test and ultra sound to track my progress with my stents. Everything checked out fine and armed with my findings including all the side effects of the meds I was on (thanks to my Pharmacist) I brought up the topic of questioning the meds I was on. It did not go well! He refused to do an advance lipoprotein test as well as a CAC scan(measures plaque build up in you carotid arteries) his answer was the same as you received with the addition of just take your pills and you will be fine. My so called Nutritionist during rehab also told me eat low fat, eat whole grains and I quote, "consume a heart healthy Canola oil". I told her to either educate herself with the up to date info or go flip fries at MacDonald's because her info was killing people! Bottom line, I went off all meds and after being keto for 3 years will be going Carnivore in the new year. I am terrified but I figure I was going to die a slow death with all kinds of side effects from the drugs anyway, this just reinforced my suspicions. Good luck on your journey!

REad Jason Fung's The Complete Guide to Fasting. This has been a great help to me in dropping my weight and improving my general health. The new consensus seem to be that sugar is as dangerous as smoking; but a growing consensus seems to point to all processed carbs as driving heart disease. 11 months ago I started eating one meal a day (difficult for 3 days;easy afterwards), and not eating carbs. I've lost 45lbs and feel much better, no more heart pain(I have CAD), HDL up Triglycerides down, HbA1c also down so no longer prediabetic. Eating what our ancestors ate before agriculture seems to be a good strategy too. But what works works.

How‘s your baby and you for that matter? Hope you didn‘t start on Statins or Insulin. On what did they base their Diagnosis, a blood test (cholesterol)??

[@patriciawalters6778]

She said it because she was professionally required to say it. She might have actually believed it, but that's beside the point. If she had NOT said it, and something medically bad had happened to you or your baby, (even if it was unrelated to diet) she could have been sued. Having said it, if something bad happened, she would have been protected by "standards of care" even if the bad result could be directly traced to her advice. "Standards of Care" are published yearly for every medical specialty (at least in the U.S.). As long as practitioners follow these standards they are protected from malpractice lawsuits, even if the standards are wrong and the patients are injured by them. If practitioners fail to follow the standards ANY negative outcome can be cause for a malpractice suit even if the outcome is unrelated to medical advice. Such is the state of the medical industry in the U.S. today. It is actually the medical industry's reaction to the hyper-litigious legal atmosphere of the 60's, 70's, 80's in the U.S.

I have a very similar view of 'hypertension' - it is neither necessary nor sufficient for CVD (or MI or stroke); remediating it (through medication or lifestyle intervention) does not make CVD go away; there is scant research which offers a coherent explanation for the mechanism by which elevated BP Granger-causes insult to arterial walls. As to cholesterol, it now seems to be beyond debate that cholesterol is part of the body's _response_ to insult to the arteries, and so the presence of cholesterol in regions of past insult to aerial walls is similar to the presence of firemen near burning houses. In other words, these people are conflating _symptoms_ with _causes_ - akin to assuming that fever and joint pain *cause* influenza. I am certain it's only a coincidence that there are a range of pharmaceuticals designed to treat symptoms.

But hypertension can cause and rupture an aneurysm thereby causing a stroke.

[@thestopper5165]

@@DrSanjayNatarajan 'can cause or rupture an aneurysm' - if that was the case, then the Port _et al_ paper from Lancet ("Systolic Blood Pressure and Mortality, Lancet Vol 355, May 15 2000 pp 175-179) would show higher all-cause mortality for higher BP at all ages. And the 'signal' for links between high systolic BP and stroke would be MUCH stronger than they are. That's not what it showed; it showed that there is NO significant increase in ACM or CVD-mortality until systolic BP was above 180 (and Port et al was 'agnostic' with respect to other CVD risks like smoking and obesity/hyperlipidemia). Similarly, there is NO increased mortality risk in under-50s for systolic BP of *200* (and for over-50s there's no increased mortality risk for diastolic *regardless of reading*) - again, ignoring obvious cofactors like obesity and smoker status. I usually have that reference to hand, but can't quite lay my hands on it at present (and Google is a waste of time because it's basically a Pharma ad campaign). When did you graduate? Must have been AFTER the Pharma complex got into doctors' offices and started shilling the 'everyone has to be 120/80, and ignore the consequences'. Whenever it was, you're incredibly lazy, reaching for a 'proxy' metric just because it can be done in 5 minutes and results in a prescription being written. If there was the remotest truth in your regurgitation of Pharma pill-hawking talking points, I would be aware of it (I am a quant, so statistical evidence is of the utmost importance to me: my primary aim is to stay alive and healthy for as long as possible, so I don't care if the evidence shows that I need to change my mind... that's what *epistemology* is all about). If your view of the world is correct (that 'hypertension' is whatever Pfizer says it is, and everyone needs a pill), I would not have survived over 10 years with a routine systolic BP between 170 and 200... as a never-smoker with a BMI of 24, and a resting HR of 59 (and given the supposed risk of kidney damage from sustained high BP, I would not currently maintain an eGFR of >95 indicating that my kidneys are in perfect working order). My 'personal best' - taken with a wrist cuff at home in a comfy chair - is 233/128. Not a hint of dizziness or whatever - it was just another day, and later that day I thrashed myself doing a HIIT session on the bike. Maybe read something other than Pharma brochures, and incorporate something other than a "one metric" approach to things. If the patient is a fat-ass smoker whose HbA1C is above 5.8 (mine's 5.1) then *his* high BP is possibly a useful *secondary* or *surrogate* indicator of his underlying problem - periodic hyperinsulinaemia driven by wildly fluctuating blood sugar. Metabolic syndrome, in other words.

I feel another documentary is over due. This needs simplifying and dumbing down in a ‘truth about sugar’, ‘magic pill’ kind of way so it grips the attention of those who need to see this but are less science or mathematical thinkers. It’s too important to keep locked up in terminology. Thank you for bringing this to us, let’s spread it further. 👏👏👏

[@bishamuesmus301]

The issue is that without the full support of the background research the information has no credibility. So although it is not an easy listen to people not versed in medical jargon, it is required for it to carry any weight and a documentary like the magic pill etc. will not convey that weight.

[@georgearnold841]

I don't think it's so much the information as much as the script and presentation. I could as a voice actor and editor provide the exact same information in a documentary style captivating delivery.

[@eugeniebreida1583]

It was an excellent presentation, and the references to studies necessary. I agree however that common people as myself would be benefited if certain food types (nuts, particular seeds, specific oils), whether they are called trans fat, or

[@eugeniebreida1583]

Omega 3’s etc - Just a few references to real world substances that we ingest, cold food, and which we should increase in which we should reduce. For instance most people don’t know a carbohydrate from a starch from the sugar… They are all interconnected. We need some shaken out of these details

[@mishaanton5436]

Yes, unless your a medical geek (like me). We need short video to show our friends. Maybe a short w overview and part 2 starting explanations. There is a strong wave of informed ppl. People who take health and lifestyle seriously, and pit responsibility on themselves for their health. I was amazed working in a he@lth f○○d store that people cane in there looking for a majic pill. Didn't want to discuss lifestyle, much less changing it. Our owner/mgr wanted us reading publications and literature. Taking ppl to cause via our library. We can't prescribe only show like MD's and research, you know.

So sad what the diet heart hypothesis did to my mom and aunt who just passed away in long term care facilities of “COVID.” Mom had dementia and her sister had really bad arthritis and heart disease when they died and they also tested positive for COVID. Not sure what auntie ate but I know my mom was sold on low fat, whole grain, seed oil diet to lose weight and control diabetes in her younger years. The uncontrolled diabetes ruined her brain and she succumbed to the complications of Lewy body dementia this past summer. Wish she could have gotten this information much sooner. She was a disciple of weight watchers, TOPS (take off pounds sensibly) and the like from age 30 onward. Never was grossly obese but always had the spare tire and tried valiantly to lose weight which she would only to regain it. All this she did while exercising faithfully. Too many carbohydrates.

[@Turbo2640]

An excellent trip through history Tim. Thank you for your careful analysis and thoughtful documentation. It is ironic that in the so-called information age, when details such as these can be so readily made available to the public and offered around the world, that so little impact is achieved (with all due respect and no offence intended). The reality is that very little has changed, even though the diet-heart hypothesis and the "cholesterol myth" were exposed as bogus many years ago. Medicine claims to be scientific, but progress is less about science - good, bad or indifferent - and more about politics ( properly understood, as the relative power relationships among people).

[@mishaanton5436]

And funding.

[@judylloyd7901]

That's because the knowledge hasn't yet filtered down to the general population. Most of them still believe that fat is bad and that cholesterol is the main contributing factor for heart disease. Even medical doctors would argue that!

[@gofityourself1]

Hey Professor Noakes. I LOVE this lecture and I send it to every client I work with to dispel the myths surrounding cholesterol. What do you think of the blood clot hypothesis? Have you read "The Clot Thickens"?

[@nic5916]

Sincere thanks! I will use this information to challenge status quo at uni’s who say we should aim to restrict our references to peer reviewed studies in past 10-20 years. Imo “current” does not have a time stamp. Rather it should refer to best practice/best evidence based information to date.

I believed he lived in Southern Italy - and in those days Southern Italy would have had no processed foods there - they would have lived ancestrally - eating fish, meats, animals, seasonal vegetables. So that is why.
