Food Nutrition

Nutrition scientist and gastronome Dr. P. K. Newby provides a sweeping overview of the many interrelationships between humans, land, and food. Newby examines topics including key nutrition concepts behind good eating; the technology, biology, and psychology of food choices; how diet affects our health and environment; and evidence-based tips for creating lasting behavior change. At the same time, Newby debunks popular myths and food folklore, challenging listeners to "learn, unlearn, and relearn" the fundamentals of nutrition at the heart of a health-giving diet.

LDL cholesterol is the primary driver of our primary killer, atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. When it comes to LDL, the lower, the better. No threshold appears to exist below which further LDL-lowering won't further reduce our risk of heart attacks, strokes, or sudden death. The reason more people aren't prescribed cholesterol-lowering statin drugs is there are associated drawbacks (such as increased diabetes risk), so the drugs are limited to those for whom the benefits outweigh the risks.

Intuitive eating is the opposite of dieting. It takes into consideration the whole person's health and wellness. With traditional diets, when you restrict a certain food item, there is an emotional response. The internal response occurs when a forbidden food is eaten, such as feelings of guilt or failure. Success is short-lived if restrictions in caloric intake and fasting cause the opposite to occur later: over-eating or cheating. The intuitive approach takes into consideration your internal signals and responses, not the number of calories or carbs you need to limit or keep track of.
