Can we say what diet is best for health with David Katz, MD

In Episode #108 I sit down with Dr David Katz, MD who in my opinion, is one of the greatest voices of clarity in a space of science which let's be frank, is littered with confusion tactics, hidden agendas and bias. This is a great episode which reinforces many of the key principles that I have been sharing with you via social media and on this show for the past 2 + years. It also emphasises the 3 pillars that I look to when making my personal food decisions - the pillar of human health, planetary health and animal welfare.

In this episode we specifically talk about:

Why an infectious disease pandemic may be what we need to take chronic disease more seriously

The number one risk factor for chronic disease in developed countries

Why debating the little stuff is keeping us from making impact on the big stuff

The characteristics of an optimal diet

Can we say what the single best diet is

The importance of the replacement nutrient in nutrition science

The use of strawman diets in nutrition science

Should we eat fish? What are the considerations here?

Would adding animal products to an optimally planned vegan diet improve one's health

and much more

I really hope you enjoy the show. Of course, if you do, please share your feedback with David and I on social media. The best place to find David is on Twitter - you can also find me on Twitter and Instagram too.

Below is a few resources that we spoke about in this episode:

David's website

David's wife's recipes at Cuisinicity

David's books - How to Eat & The Truth About Food

Why Two Pandemics are better than one
