Summary

Bestselling health journalist Max Lugavere says the Food Pyramid is flawed because it was built upon epidemiology “which is a very weak form of science when it comes to actually informing people in terms of diet.” He says it’s “basically an experiment that’s being played out on the public health stage” and that people should resist the ” ‘meat is bad for you’ psyop.” Max Lugavere is a NYT bestselling author, health journalist, and filmmaker. His books include ‘Genius Foods’ and ‘Genius Kitchen’. He hosts The Genius Life podcast with over 65 million downloads and has appeared on The Joe Rogan Experience, The Today Show, and PBS. His work focuses on brain health, longevity, and nutrition science.
