Before enjoying this podcast, please help by subscribing for free here:  https://thefatemperor.com/subscribe/ and help us to get the message out; it only takes a second - thank you! NOTE:  SOUND IS NOT FULL QUALITY UNTIL ~9 MINUTES IN (then it's saucy as usual!) Welcome to Episode 42, featuring a compelling #Irish guest! Cian Foley has learned first hand that nutrition is crucial in maintaining health and vitality. He has specifically realized that many of us have been unconsciously "eating for winter" - which is a VERY bad idea. His discoveries led to him writing the book "Don't Eat for Winter" - a fascinating account of his journey, and full of advice on how to optimize both your nutrition and your health!

Great conversation recently with Nick Paterson of https://lihfliving.com/ - "Low Inflammation, High Fat Living".   Not everyone will like one of the core points made - that some people may have significant issues with eating dairy...!  But we must always openly discuss what may affect some people who are sensitive to certain foods - because they are the ones who will suffer, not everyone else...

Finally got hold of the man who more than anyone, has deep-dived into the root causes of heart disease - without bias - just fixated with finding the truth. I'm of course referring to Dr. Malcolm Kendrick, who has created the 65-part (and growing) series "What Causes Heart Disease?". See index below for a gist of what we covered (hint - it was A LOT!)

My short talk from Real Food Rocks in the UK - #RFR19.  VIDEO PODCAST WITH SLIDES:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wi_f9Z1rc7o&feature=youtu.be Big thanks to Dr. David and Jennifer Unwin for an amazing event with ~700 people in attendance in Brathay Hall Estate, Lake District. Due to constraints in the room size, in the the end I had to deliver the talk three times over the course of the day, and each time there was standing room only (see pic below :-). It was really great to see so many people wanting to take control of their heart health. Hope you enjoy, and remember that you gotta "Know Your Score!" Go to https://ihda.ie/ to get the latest on preventing heart attacks. It's crucial information for everyone, so please share the website as widely as possible - thanks!

Met up with Joan Ifland after her excellent and inspiring talk at Low Carb Seattle; she wrote a landmark book on processed food addiction many years ago, after years of research into the phenomenon. She has now produced the definitive textbook on this problem, for training people in university and classroom settings (btw Dr. Robert Lustig is actually using her new textbook now in university-based courses). Find Joan at https://www.drjoanifland.com/ and her excellent services at https://www.foodaddictionreset.com/ As always, please help to support this podcast by visiting and importantly #sharing https://ihda.ie/ - to enable the masses to identify their heart disease and take action to stop it!
