Peak Human - Unbiased Nutrition Info for Optimum Health, Fitness & Living

Gabor is a food scientist with a master's in molecular biology. He lives in Hungary and is one of these engineers/scientists who I love talking to who look at nutrition differently. He has a very unique perspective because he worked for big food manufacturers. He spends almost all of his free time researching this stuff to help people understand how bad these processed foods actually are. He has a large community on Facebook where he shares and discusses this information. He also has some great presentations he’s done you can find online.   BUY THE MEAT NosetoTail.org Preorder the film here: http://indiegogo.com/projects/food-lies-post   SHOW NOTES (12:29) To determine whether a study is biased, refer first to potential conflicts of interest.

Dr. Joel Kahn is a cardiologist, integrative medicine practitioner and promoter of plant-based nutrition. Having practiced traditional cardiology since 1983, it was only after his own commitment to a plant based vegan diet that he truly began to delve into the realm of non-traditional diagnostic tools, prevention tactics and nutrition-based recovery protocols. These ideologies led him to change his approach and focus on being a holistic cardiologist. https://www.drjoelkahn.com/   GET THE MEAT NosetoTail.org Preorder the film here: http://indiegogo.com/projects/food-lies-post   SHOW NOTES (16:52) According to Dr. Khan, if you suffer from heart disease, consider a plant-based diet based on science.

Obesity researcher Stephan Guyenet discusses the brain's influence on food intake and energy expenditure. He emphasizes the importance of whole foods and lower calorie density.

The podcast also explores altering the environment, avoiding dietary tribes, and the need for unbiased information in nutrition.
