John Yedkin was one of the proponents of this theory, and he was eventually destroyed by the sugar industry. In 1977, the U.S. government recommended a low-fat diet to the nation, based on little evidence. This led to an obesity epidemic in America. The video "Fat Fiction" discusses how the low-fat food industry has been a failure. The video points out that foods high in sugar and refined carbs are to blame for the obesity and diabetes epidemic.

00:00:00 The video Fat Fiction - Full Movie - Free discusses how "saturated fat is bad" and has been wrong for years, based on no evidence. The video goes on to say that a low-fat diet didn't make us healthy, and that a low-fat heart-healthy diet is unproven and has been a huge experiment on millions of people that has failed.
00:05:00 The video discusses the nation's battle against obesity and the cost of obesity to the healthcare system. It also features clips from the 50th anniversary of Apollo 11 and Judy, a person with type 2 diabetes, who has been successfully treated with a keto diet.
00:10:00 In this video, Dr. Tim Noakes discusses the "problem" of nutritional dogma and how it has led to people being confused about the best way to eat. He goes on to discuss how alternative ideas have been attacked, and how physicians have been labeled as "quacks" for ignoring guidelines against fats and telling their patients to cut carbs instead. In South Africa, Dr. Tim Nooks was threatened with a medical license for recommending a low carbohydrate, high-fat diet to a young mother. The reason why the low carbohydrate diet has become demonized is because it works - and has a huge impact on the financial return of the medical profession. Nick Brown, a typical American, participates in a unique nutrition experiment along with Tracy and Cynthia. Throughout the experiment, they each weigh in, check their blood pressure, blood sugar, and cholesterol, and drink alcohol. The keto recipes in the book they're using are full of healthy, natural fats like eggs, butter, avocado, olive oil, and nuts and seeds. Just by switching to a low carbohydrate, high-fat diet, Nick's blood sugar and cholesterol went down, and his blood sugar was ready to scan within minutes of starting the experiment. This is big - as it's the first time that such
00:15:00 The three participants in this video lost weight and felt great on a keto diet, which is full of healthy fats. The turning point for many Americans was when President Eisenhower had a heart attack in 1955 and the nation was in shock. This led to a desperate need for explanations and led to the discovery of the link between heart disease and smoking, as well as other factors, such as diet.
00:20:00 Ansel Benjamin Keys presented a study in 1953 showing a linear relationship between saturated fat intake and heart disease rates. This study was later debunked, but the idea that saturated fat is bad for you is still prevalent in the Western world.
00:25:00 The diet advocated by Ansel Keys in the 1960s was high in carbohydrates and low in fat, and it was believed at the time that this was the best way to prevent heart disease. However, over the past 50 years, there has been no evidence to support this theory. Zoe Harcombe, an obesity researcher, collected data from randomized controlled clinical trials to study the lack of evidence behind the diet-heart hypothesis. She found that there was no difference between the groups assigned to eat a low-fat diet and those assigned to eat a high-fat diet. There was also no evidence to support the theory that saturated fat is dangerous and needs to be avoided. Finally, Ansel Benjamin Keys had a very outsized personality and was able to get into the American Heart Association on their nutrition committee. This gave him enough credibility to advocate for the diet-heart hypothesis in the 1960s.
00:30:00 The video discusses the controversy surrounding fat and cholesterol. It points out that, in the 1960s, there was a competing theory that it was sugar rather than fat that might cause heart disease.

00:40:00 Fat fiction is a film that criticizes the way the American Diabetes Association (ADA) promotes low-fat diets. The film's protagonist, Alyssa Gallagher, is a dietitian who began exploring low-carbohydrate approaches to nutrition after being frustrated with the advice her clients were receiving. After helping people to genuinely lose weight for the first time in her career, Alyssa begins to question the wisdom of the ADA's recommendations to eat carbohydrates. She finds that when you remove fat from the diet, you need to eat something else in its place, and that this something else is often carbohydrates. At first, she didn't understand why the advice wasn't working, but eventually it became clear to her that the ADA's recommendations were not helping people to lose weight or improve their diabetes diagnoses. In her TED talk on this unconventional approach to reversing type 2 diabetes, Sarah Hallberg, a physician leading arguably the most promising trial ever conducted on type 2 diabetes, discusses how fat is central to any science-based nutrition recommendation for anyone struggling with diabetes.
00:45:00 Captain Brian Gaudette, an Apache helicopter pilot, was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, and his health problems resolved after he changed his diet to include more healthy fats and fewer processed foods.

In the "Fat Fiction - Full Movie - Free" video, Doug Reynolds argues that the popular "calories in, calories out" model of weight management is flawed and that carbohydrates are the primary driver of insulin levels. He provides examples of how this theory has been successfully applied in the real world, and urges viewers to pay more attention to hormones when considering their diet.

01:00:00 Doug begins by explaining how the popular "calories in, calories out" model of weight management is fundamentally flawed, as it doesn't take into account the hormonal effects of different foods. He goes on to propose the "carbohydrate insulin hypothesis" of weight gain, which holds that carbohydrates are the primary driver of insulin levels, and that when these levels are lowered, fat can be accessed for energy. He provides examples of how this theory has been successfully applied in the real world, and ends the video by urging viewers to pay more attention to hormones when considering their diet.
01:05:00 In the video, "Fat Fiction - Full Movie - Free," a man talks about his experience with diabetes and how he has changed his approach to diabetes management by following a ketogenic diet. In the past, he had been giving terrible advice to people with diabetes and had been feeling hopeless about the disease. However, after meeting a woman with diabetes who had been successfully managing her disease on a ketogenic diet, he changed his outlook and started to offer hope to others with diabetes.

01:15:00 Fat is a superfood that is used by the body as building blocks for cellular membranes and fat makes up the myelin sheath that forms around your nerves and allows electrical impulses to transmit quickly and efficiently. Fat makes up more than half of our brain tissue, human breast milk is more than half fat, and much of which is saturated fat. However, what we've been told about which fats are good for us and which fats are bad is dead wrong. We were told to eat margarine instead of butter, but this advice was deadly. Many doctors have recommended corn oil margarines to help lower the saturated fat content in a reduced-fat diet, and this is what led to the American Heart Association's endorsement of vegetable oils. These oils are made from partially hydrogenated fats, which are trans fats, and are best replaced with spreads high in saturated fats like mazzola 100 corn oil margarine.
01:20:00 The video discusses how vegetable oils, which are typically found in processed foods, are not natural and can be pro-inflammatory. The study mentioned in the video, the Minnesota Coronary Experiment, found that people who were on a cholesterol-lowering diet had more heart disease and more deaths. The Heart Foundations, a pro-vegetable oil organization, has ignored research that contradicts their recommendations, which is why current recommendations may be different than what would have been implemented had the original research been published.
01:25:00 Dave Asprey's Bulletproof Coffee is a high-fat, low-carbohydrate drink that has helped many people lose weight and cut their insulin medications. Judy has lost weight and cut her insulin medications by 60 by following a similar high-fat, low-carbohydrate diet.
