  • Summary

  • In the last fifty years, millions of Americans have been misled with fad diets. Consequently, their health has been compromised and sometimes severely damaged by advice from “health experts”. Join us on The Other Side of Medicine, Thursday 5/16/2024 as cardiologist, Dr. Joel Kahn reveals the hard science regarding which foods sustain health and promote longevity. Millions of Americans face confusion about which foods to eat for optimal health, largely due to conflicting dietary advice, marketing strategies, and the sheer volume of information available. This confusion can lead to poor dietary choices and negative health outcomes. Thursday night at 8:00 p.m. on The Other Side of Medicine podcast, Dr. Joel Kahn, cardiologist, author, and expert in evidence based natural medicine will provide the facts. He will reveal common myths, junk science and other contributing to this confusion and provide solid guidelines to help navigate the complexities of healthy eating for optimal health. Factors Contributing to Confusion 1. Conflicting Nutritional Advice: • Different “health experts” and organizations often provide conflicting recommendations about what constitutes a healthy diet. For example, the debate between low-fat and low-carb diets, low protein and high protein can be quite perplexing. The food industry is filled with deception and lies to further complicate this ongoing dilemna. 2. Trendy Diets: • Fad diets gain popularity quickly, often with little or insufficient scientific backing or long-term studies to support their health claims. 3. Changing Guidelines: • Over the years, dietary guidelines have evolved, sometimes drastically, leading to confusion about what is truly healthy. For instance, recommendations on fat intake have changed significantly. 4. Information Overload: • The internet and social media are flooded with health information, making it difficult to discern credible sources from pseudoscience or anecdotal evidence. While navigating the landscape of dietary information can be challenging, frustrating and even dangerous, adhering to basic principles of nutrition and seeking advice from credible sources can help demystify what to eat for health. Dr. Kahn is one of our nation’s leading authorities in evidence-based nutrition and lifestyle medicine. He will reveal the latest research findings about which foods and diet will provide the body with the necessary nutrition to repair and heal the body and live a long life in good health.
