Did you know that a 5 oz serving of french fries contains the same amount of carcinogens you would get from smoking 20-25 cigarettes? Join us as we interview Dr. Cate Shanahan about her new book DARK CALORIES: How Vegetable Oils Destroy Our Health and How We Get It Back.
In DARK CALORIES, Cornell-trained biochemist-turned-family physician Cate Shanahan explains how a group of eight little-known oils cause the cellular damage that underlies virtually all chronic disease, exposes the corruption that deceives doctors and consumers into eating them, and gives us a clear roadmap to recovery and rejuvenation. We dig into the health implications including how vegetable oils cause mitochondrial toxicity and obesity, cancer, and more. We explore the nuances of the omega 3 vs omega 6 ratio, whether sunflower oil is a better choice, and how to navigate dining out!
