Today’s episode is Part 1 of a special three-part interview where Jimmy and bestselling author Gary Taubes from GaryTaubes.com talk about Gary’s brand new book entitled The Case Against Sugar, the follow up to his 2007 New York Times bestseller Good Calories, Bad Calories and his 2011 book Why We Get Fat and What To Do About It. Listen in as Jimmy and Gary discuss the science behind sugar addiction and the role it has played in our culture’s increasing prevalence of diseases, including obesity, diabetes, and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. Gary asks the hard questions about our obsession with sugar and clarifies misconceptions about this food by studying what happens to societies that abandon their natural diets and adopt a more Western way of eating. Like a good defense lawyer, he makes the case that all of the chronic diseases of modern society can be traced back to sugar consumption.
Be sure to listen in on Tuesday as Jimmy and Gary continue their conversation with updates from Gary about what’s going on at Nutrition Science Initiative (NuSI). Then on Wednesday, don’t miss Gary’s analysis of the state of nutritional health research including commentary on the Kevin Hall study that NuSI helped organize and fund.
