Nina Teicholz is a New York Times bestselling investigative science journalist who has played a pivotal role in challenging the conventional wisdom on dietary fat. Her groundbreaking work, 'The Big Fat Surprise', which The Economist named as the #1 science book of 2014, has led to a profound rethinking on whether we have been wrong to think that fat, including saturated fat, causes disease.

Nina continues to explore the political, institutional, and industry forces that prevent better thinking on issues related to nutrition and science. She has been published in the New York Times, the New Yorker, the British Medical Journal, Gourmet, the Los Angeles Times and many other outlets.

    When I was 40 I got a belly. At 64 I cut carbs and went from 185 lb to 155 lb. In the shower I was repeatedly frightened by the sight of someone's feet.

    I can't thank Nina Teicholz enough for this presentation, and I can't thank the owners of this channel enough for uploading it. When people approach me at work, inquiring as to how I lost 96 lbs, and I tell them about my low carb/intermittent fasting eating plan, one of the biggest reservations they have is the concern over the SUPPOSED deleterious effects of meat consumption. While I, during the course of my low carb weight loss journey, read many articles, watched may presentations, and listened to many podcasts which debunk the supposed health risks of eating meat, I never had a singular source that I could refer people to, that was concise, not filled with science jargon, which debunks this prevailing myth. I would have to spend an inordinate amount of time referring people to multiple videos, articles and podcast. Now, with this cogent and entertaining presentation, I have precisely that very succinct, convincing, and plain spoken source of information I need to allay the fears of those who have misgivings about eating meat on a low carb eating plan. Thank you so much!
  • I went high meat and dairy two days ago and today I was able to sprint for the first time since school. I am 54 and have been in and out of vegan, vegetarian, high fibre for past 14 years trying to gain better health, suffering from so called IBS due to abusing my body with fibre and fibre supplements. Today I had two tablespoons of saturated fat for lunch and the past two days a flat stomach for the first time since 14 years ago. I feel great.

    It can't be only me but I love it when she does her little guffaw. Nina is a wonderful speaker. Informative and easy to listen to.

    I am 60 years old. All my life I ate meat. sometimes more, sometimes less. I eat just as much as I have appetite for it. ALWAYS purchased the high fat cuts. all my life have been eating heart, liver, kidney, tongue, stomach lining, yummmmmmmmmm. love the fat portion of meat barbequed.......it truly is a delicacy. Oh, and not to forget........bone marrow. my kids are now in their 30s and grew up on all of those delicacies. all their friends make fun of them and say......yuck. too bad , they don't know what they are missing. I would say our little family is healthier than any other family we know. my kids rarely got sick, are in super healthy shape and fit and strong. Oh, I forgot Liver Sausage.............just delectable. I am going to leave now get myself a nice thick piece of steak or liver. Oh, I forgot..............have excellent blood rates, low blood pressure, not a smitch of elevated anythign, I don't even have lower back pain.

    You just have to love YouTube... videos are informative, but comments... totally entertaining!
  • The so-called health advisors have been slowly killing us with their lies. God bless the internet at least now we can be informed and a big thanks to Nina.
  • Awesome presentation. I've been keto for around 8 months. Lost 50 lbs, A1c from 10 to 5. Blood pressure improved, cholesterol profile loads better. It works for me. And I'm not complaining about being able to eat bacon and cream cheese guilt free, either.
  • Started Paleo almost 10 month ago. Transitioned to Keto a few weeks ago. Over all lost 33 pounds, feeling great, not getting sick so far (even being around my sick-with-something boyfriend last week). Never been able to become less than overweight on all my life until these last 10 months! It's incredible! Low carb for life!

    Red meat is associated with fast food. It’s the carbs that makes up the dangerous results of settings that associated with red meat.
  • @PorkChop71912
    Low carb for 6 years now. Down 140lbs, I feel great...
  • @debral.2544
    With your background and education it amazes me the masses are not paying more attention. I am a huge follower of Nina's and lchf....Here is the science...why are people still walking around with blinders on! Keep up the great work Nina!

    I did the ecornell plant based certificate a couple years back -cost me $1800. They are teaching that meat feeds bad bacteria and causes 'acidosis' which leaches minerals from your bones. I felt terrible following their diet. Was always hungry and felt bloated and couldn't sleep well couldn't build muscle and felt weak. My iron dropped to half the levels they should be. Thankfully presentations like this one helped me find the right way. Now feel much better on meat/ animal food diet.
  • @arasb3258
    I love her delivery, very clear and pleasant to the ear. We should all strive to talk so clearly.
  • Nina’s book, “The Big Fat Surprise” is excellent! If you want to understand nutrition science you need to read her book. Nina, we can’t thank you enough for all you have done and are doing to educate us on nutrition! Greg
  • @savedfaves
    Sometimes my body literally craves an organic homemade beef burger or some liver. I immediately feel better after eating it.
  • @KenDBerryMD
    Great video! Nina T nails it as usual! Eat your red meat folks, it's good for you...
  • @awksedgreep
    I'll never forget the interview with the oldest living American at 120. They asked him what he attributed to his longevity . . . his answer: Lots of bacon every single day.
  • For me the bigger benefit of carnivore base keto diet is mood. I wake up in the morning full of energy and love for life. I'm 50, training very hard every day, my joints are twenty again, my brain is sharp as hell, I'm more creative, more happy, this is the best thing that happens to me ever. And every vegan I know is a mental mess. They have physical energy but they are blue and they have a lot of judgment and drama in their lives. Sure humans can live on vegetables, or fruits, or nuts, or whatever. The human body is a survival perfected machine. But to live and function optimally is a different thing. Happy Carnivore For Life!!!!!!
