What if everything you know about nutrition, weight loss, disease-prevention, and sustainability isn't true? What if * calorie-counting isn't an accurate tool for weight loss * dietary fat doesn't make you fat * saturated fat is actually healthy and you should be eating a lot more of it * women with higher cholesterol live longer than women with low cholesterol * salt consumption doesn't give you high blood pressure * the real Mediterranean Diet is very different from what you think it is * the Glycemic Index and ANDI are flawed and inaccurate * plant foods can't do many important things for your body that animal foods can * no culture in the history of humanity has been able to continue its line on a diet entirely devoid of animal foods * ecological sustainability depends on non-commercial animal husbandry?
