How did we come to believe saturated fat and cholesterol are bad for us?
 

"A few weeks ago I gave a talk at the UCSD medical school. I was
asked to give a talk about 'ethics,' something I don’t particularly
know much about, professionally. However, it struck me that the
state of our current nutritional environment, with food policies based
on just about everything but rigorous, experimental science, couldn’t
make much ethical sense. I’m pretty sure if Plato, Aristotle, and
Nietzsche were still around they’d be disgusted with how we got here.
So, I was happy to take this opportunity to speak with a group of
thought leaders on this important topic.

"Below is a video combining the audio of my talk with my slide
presentation. It’s about an hour long. But as Bastiat essentially
said, if you want to overturn half-truths, you can’t do it with bumper
stickers. Hopefully you’ll find this talk informative and useful for
your dinner party discussions."
