[@dacisky]

This is terrifying,especially totally removing meat from the food supply.

[@elizabethwhite1068]

It is very terrifying. Just the thought of removing all the animals and replacing them with corporate green houses and labs, and what that would do to the ecology and food supply of the world is terrifying. But I just read something recently that was reporting on the decline in sales of fake meat, "milk" and whatnot. It gave me hope. I'm happy to be doing my part to make that happen while increasing revenue for beef, bacon, butter, real cream, cheese and eggs. The pressure is definitely on to force us in the direction of fake food and no animals, but we have the power to push back and real food folks are a rapidly growing population. Not to mention, what would we be left with to feed our pets? It would mean the end of cats and dogs.

[@BigSlimyBlob]

They are evildoers, but most likely not criminals. The law is written by the rich and powerful...

[@christopherellis2663]

@BigSlimyBlob not really, only manipulated. The legislative process has checks and balances, but greed and stupidity are built in.

[@BigSlimyBlob]

@@christopherellis2663 Heavily, heavily manipulated due to the lameness of the checks and balances. A rich person can sit in their corner office and make a decision that will result in the deaths of many people, and in the unlikely case that there is legal action, the company (not the people who actually made the decisions) will have to pay a fine or something. There's virtually zero chance that the murderer will see the inside of a prison, alongside the absurd number of people who are still in there for infinitely less harmful acts. Manipulate a law enough and you can get it to read exactly what you'd have written it as in the first place.

Over 20 years ago, Great Ormand Street Children's Hospital in London did a High Protein, Low Carb diet with a group of children that suffered from epilepsy. After the two year study was complete, the children that were in the low carb, high protein diet group ceased to have epilepsy.

The keto group had a 38% decrease in seizures. They did not cease to have epilepsy. It was a very exciting result. Let's not make things up.

Hey Nina! In the 1970's I lost a friend once because I burst laughing when she told some kind of health committee that Cheerios were among the healthiest of foods. This happened in Berkeley, CA., and I remember it clearly and distinctly I kid you not. So this "fight" is not new. The only difference now is that we have the Internet, and this time us healthy promoting people are going to win.

[@Mrs.TJTaylor]

Right on!

[@juliag7361]

Just checked the price of those in Germany. 13€/kg. That's insane. You can get 1 kg of oats for 2 € and 1 kg of sugar for 1,50€, if you wanna cerals for breakfast. I love nuts and my favorite mixture costs 12€/kg and they will keep me satiated longer. Lot's of people in Germany complain about prices for meat, but then they buy cerals with brand names.

We should be able to file lawsuits against these government agencies/officials kinda like the lawsuits against camp lejeune, or monsanto-roundup folks. The U.S. guidelines ruined my coronary arteries and I want compensation dammit!!! Luckily, I’ve saved my kids from this horrible outcome! What a bunch of idiots 😢

[@elizabethwhite1068]

Such a great talk! Definitely heading over to the NC website to give my comments after this. Nina Teicholz should be awarded a presidential medal for the incredible work she's been doing for 20 yrs. I'm someone who seriously needs for things to be logical and to add up, and when they don't my brain starts to implode. This is what happened 8 years ago when my dad died from post-op complications after a heart attack. All the specifics did not add up at all and I went in search of answers because my brain could not leave it alone. Nina is a nutrition hero in my book, because she deals in facts and true history as a journalist and refuses to leave it alone!

[@CAM-fq8lv]

Where has common sense gone? I'm truly baffled how anyone could consider these products food.

[@christopherellis2663]

[@elizabethwhite1068]

I think it's from 50 years of being told lies about nutrition and cholesterol that's brainwashed people to believe rubbish is health food. But I hope they've gone to far with this Tufts ridiculousness and people will start overcoming the cognitive dissonance.

Bravo Nina! I admire and appreciate your staying power on this important topic.

[@mikemcc6625]

Death by red meat is unsubstantiated. Renewed health and mentation from low carb continues to win one person at a time. "The 2014 book "The Big Fat Surprise" is still big news, especially to those who have not read it. Thanks for the work on our behalf, Nina.

[@michaelhegarty788]

Thank you yet again Nina, your work is greatly appreciated. Your quest to expose the crooks who take big industry back handers at the expense of a population's health, shame shame on them. If only they had your honesty bravery and integrity, how many life's could be saved.. This is not a joke they are bent and it's deeply sinister.

small carnivore here. one of the first graphs showed that saturated fat is 10% of total calories on average. mine is 40%. YES

[@chrisminifie219]

Me too. Actually we get most of our energy from fat as we mostly use the protein for building and maintaining body tissues, making hormones, etc.

[@gibbyjones1040]

i also get 30% of my total calories from monounsaturated fat for a total of 70% calories from all fat

[@elizabethwhite1068]

I don't even bother counting anymore. Real food - real fat - lots of butter - yum.

When I told my doctor that I was going on a low-carb-high-fat diet, her eyebrows shot up. She said she was concerned about my cholesterol levels and ordered blood tests. I have been doing my research and know that the A1C test will not show the effects of this diet for 3 months at least, so I am NOT getting tested until that period is up. I am ready with screen shots from your talk and a lot of other information, much from Australia, to provide my doctor with info. Thank you SO much!

according to the chart, at 77, I should die soon - haven't had a breakfast cereal for many years, mainly eat meat and fat with a lot of ground beef. Lunch was 3 buttered cheese/egg chaffles and 5 bacon, dinner will be flank steak and butter. 😋 Sorry, gotta run, literally jogging, then off to ride my horse after I trim up her hooves, then swim with my hubby 🏊. I never mention my diet unless somebody says they wish they had half my energy and ambition.

[@chrisminifie219]

Can I come to your place for dinner?

[@theanswerismeat]

15:00 -- a useful (new?) perspective on this would be to start showing POSITIVE impacts on cardiovascular health et al when eating a diet with quality saturated fats. The current logic is to check 'does eating saturated fats cause ill health' however if we can move to the positive logic, it could have HUGE ramifications and support for a true change to the 'standard of care' that Physicians et al must follow.

[@catlover-fo1jy]

thank you again Nina T. I have been following your wonderful work since 2014 with the "Big Fat Surprise" book. I've moved from eating local and organic and mostly seasonal (in Oregon) to then Keto in 2017 and now with Carnivore! My health is by far the best yet! I haven't had health insurance since 1996...I'm 55 yrs young and do NOT have a general physician....I haven't seen a doctor since early 2017. Health never felt so good.

[@taxfree4]

Nina is such a crusader in this field and makes the complicated simple. A great speaker who is entertaining, informative and thorough, I could listen for hours. Every talk she has I learn gobs of information.

[@niranjanpaul2176]

Oh yes

[@Shiny54]

What an entertaining, and eye-opening, presentation! Loved watching it.

[@sheilacollins9384]

It is painful for me to do coursework toward a personal trainer certification. You hear them say "nutritional sources can be political" and "there is emerging evidence that saturated fat may not be as damaging to health as was thought" but "your scope of practice must stay within government guidelines, established evidence and advice of registered dieticians".

[@elkiton]

My heart consultant at the clinic was pleased at my bmi reduction and all blood parameters now in the green. We talked diets, she asked me how and I told her I was keto.... She gave me the required official line of lots of good carbs and minimal saturated fat. Then as I was leaving, at the door she whispered " I am keto too"!

Very good talk explaining the truth behind the propaganda. A lot of carbs, and especially sugars, are not good. But I strongly suggest the most dangerous is the seed oils, not the sugars. They are highly oxidative, inflammatory and toxic in big amounts. Comparable to arsenic. Search for Chris Knobbe and his presentations. He has researched this a long time.

[@foreverfornevervegan]

Most people should take one look at that Tuft's chart and immediately think it's something straight out of the Onion. I think down deep, most would. Yet, if you try to get people on board with flipping the food pyramid or just simply rethinking their carb-heavy diet, you'll find excuse after excuse after excuse for why those foods "aren't so bad" or can be "eaten in moderation" or how they're "part of a balanced diet". You repeat a lie enough times, and it starts to feel true. This is what I think has happened with the general public.

Ms. Teicholz, you have such important information to convey! I just wish you would practice your presentations more thoroughly. Your tendency to misread your own slides, jump forward and back on thoughts and specific points and speak in incomplete sentences really gets in the way of your important message. For example, when discussing saturated fat, you say that "between 73 and 100% of the papers don't support their conclusion..." It's really between 50 and 100%. Not a big difference, but the listener/reader of the slide is left trying to figure out why you said 73% instead of 50% rather than listening to what you say after that. I've listened to many of your presentations and always find it very difficult to fo;;ow what you are saying.
