Pyramid Scheme, Meet Nutrition Science

In this episode, we take a hard look at the latest changes to the food pyramid and ask the big question: are these updates finally rooted in real science—or just recycled nutrition dogma?
Next, we dive deep into saturated fat. Not all saturated fats are created equal, so we explore the different types, why the body actually needs saturated fat, and whether some sources can be considered genuinely healthy.
Finally, we tackle one of nutrition’s most controversial topics: Is there really a correlation between saturated fat, cholesterol and heart disease? To separate fact from fear, we play a powerful clip from Dr. Aseem Malhotra as he breaks down what the actual studies show—and what they don’t.
If you’re confused by conflicting dietary advice and want evidence-based clarity, this episode is a must
