Nina and I dive into why the U.S. Dietary Guidelines urgently need to include a low-carb option and how this change could impact millions of lives. We also explore the political and systemic barriers that have kept low-carb diets out of official recommendations and why this moment presents a unique opportunity for real change. Make sure to listen to the full interview to learn more.
Nina Teicholz, an investigative science journalist and author of the groundbreaking book The Big Fat Surprise, has been instrumental in challenging conventional dietary wisdom. She is the founder of the Nutrition Coalition, which advocates for evidence-based dietary guidelines that reflect current science.
