Disease Epidemic Rising 00:03:40
The reason we're seeing the youth, so many young people, and you know I'm telling the truth.
Yes.
There's so many young people that are obese.
And I remember growing up, we hardly ever saw an obese young person now.
Ever.
I hardly ever saw one.
Today, they're everywhere.
It's because they're eating their parents' diet.
Their parents, they have inherited their parents' diet.
Bad choices.
And they're bad choices.
And it's those bad oils.
It's those low fat.
And all the wrong information that we thought was true, we have been eating and we've passed on that to our children.
And now we're letting it show up in this epidemic of obesity in young people.
Well, let me just explain because it goes back.
And I paint this picture in my book, The KetoZone, how all this started.
And you say, how did we start down this road?
It's such a bad road.
Back in the 60s, we didn't have these problems.
No obesity.
We didn't have near the heart disease, near the diabetes, near the obesity, nothing like that.
No, hardly any dementia.
It was rare.
What happened was in the 1950s, Dr. Ansel Keys, the father of cholesterol, was a pathologist from the University of Minnesota.
What he did is he came out with a theory.
He theorized that saturated fat caused heart disease.
Theorize.
And then he did a study, two major studies, called the Six Country Study and the Seven Country Studies.
These were huge landmark studies where he picked and chose the data.
And he literally manipulated the data so that he could prove with his data that saturated fats cause heart disease and saturated fats raised cholesterol level, which was a very bad thing.
This was passed.
It went through the dietary boards and everything for U.S. and all these other countries.
And so it was accepted.
Then the food industry took it on.
Big food took it on.
They developed low-fat, high-carb foods.
All that started.
And then the disease epidemic started.
Then big pharma got into it and big medicine got into it.
The healthcare industry.
The healthcare industry got into it.
And all of a sudden, they had a huge money racket because they had diseases increasing so much.
Their profits were increasing.
They had cancer increasing astronomically, heart disease increasing astronomically, diabetes astronomically.
And this is how hospitals make money, guys.
Hospitals make money with a big heart center doing lots of stints, bypass surgery, with big cancer centers doing lots of chemo, with big diabetic centers doing lots of dialysis and things like that.
That's big money.
And then big pharma got into the picture.
You see how it all came together?
Big pharma came in with drugs like statin drugs.
Anyone whose cholesterol is over 200, they get a statin drug, which causes all kinds of problems.
And then diabetic medication, high blood pressure medication, all these meds fed big pharma.
Big pharma makes over $35 billion a year just on statin.
It's because there's no money in prevention.
But what has happened?
What has happened?
Disease has become epidemic, unlike 50, 60 years ago when we were on the high-fat diet.
And farmers would be out there eating their eggs and their butter and everything else.
No heart disease.
They lived in their 80s and 90s.
No dementia, no diabetes.
But then they switched to this low-fat, high-carb, and all of a sudden, disease epidemics going like crazy.
So we're getting back to the root of the problem.
We're getting back to carbage is the problem.
Saturated Fats Explained 00:00:22
The answer is healthy fats.
And that's what I'm trying to teach people.
And saturated fats are actually a good fat.
They've had over 72 major studies that have shown that saturated fats do not...
Saturated fats are butter, cream, cheese, saturated fats and animal meats and things like that.
