Fat Is Not the Enemy: How Decades of Low-Fat Advice Got It Wrong
Prof. Sarah Berry and Jonathan Wolf discuss how the decades-long demonization of dietary fat led people to replace it with refined carbohydrates, making health outcomes worse. Jonathan shares how his own father was put on a very low-fat diet 45 years ago, leading the whole family to eat excessive pasta and bread.
