This week, we have Dr. Mark Hyman back on the show for round 2. We talk about the subject of his new book, Eat Fat, Get Thin. This book shatters the old paradigm that had us fearing the consumption of saturated fat and cholesterol. It's time we stop fearing fat.

Your body is the best doctor in the room Curb your cravings with fat Sugar is more addictive than cocaine Carbohydrate intolerance, what is it? FLC Syndrome, do you feel like crap? Nutritionism has gotten us into a lot of trouble Be smart about buying packaged foods A low-fat vegan diet isn't the answer Meat should be eaten as a condiment Yes vegans and vegetarians can get enough fat from their diets We've been brainwashed by doctors and the media to think that cholesterol is bad Should we consider butter, coconut oil, and palm oil health foods?
