TMM PODCAST EPISODE 095: Fat Is Not the Enemy with Dr. Cate Shanahan

Good nutrition involves good food. Our health and well-being have a lot to do with what we eat, and contrary to what most medical institutions say, fat is not our enemy.

Science and sound research show that it is key to improving our metabolic health leading to a long and healthy life.

I am so excited to share this interview with Dr. Cate Shanahan. Her book, Deep Nutrition: Why Your Genes Need Traditional Food, has been life-changing for me and my students.

When I applied a few simple tweaks based on her recommendations, I started to feel better and more healthy.

In this podcast episode, Dr. Cate Shanahan shares the dangers of seed oils and their history. We also talk about how saturated fat got labeled as 'bad'.

We also talk about insulin resistance and the role that nutrition plays in migraines.

There is a lot to this episode you shouldn't miss. Check it out today!
