Categories: Cholesterol, Diabetes, Diets, Health & Nutrition
Watch our interview with Sam Feltham from Smash The Fat Fitness & Fat Loss Boot Camps in the United Kingdom. The discussion includes:
- The standard nutritional guidelines, medical education and the progression of chronic disease since the 1980s.
- Personal discoveries as a family physician with 25 years of experience. Redefining nutrition after the 1st 10 years of my career.
- Using ketogenic, low carb, high fat, nutrient dense diets especially for type II diabetics and pre-diabetics, but that one diet may not be appropriate for all.
- Acknowledging evidence supporting (or not supporting) these non-standard diets and recognizing the need for more research and discovery. We clearly do not have all the answers.
- Integrating the standard medical model with that of a more functional approach, using nutrition as a tool to treat and prevent chronic disease.
- Redefining the delivery of primary care.
- Finding common ground regarding sound nutritional advice.
- Acknowledging social media’s contribution to the raging nutritional debate.
- Redefining the role of cholesterol in cardiovascular disease.
- Discussion with Ivor Cummins about vitamin D and other fat soluble vitamins, nutrient dense foods, health and cardiovascular disease.
