The Entire Food Pyramid Was WRONG (and RFK Jr Fixed It!)

About this episode

In this episode, Dr. David Jockers breaks down why the food pyramid most of us learned in school was wrong, and how the newly released pyramid reverses more than 50 years of mainstream nutrition advice by dropping the grain-based foundation and the low-fat obsession.   You will learn what Dr. Jockers calls the real food pyramid: protein and healthy fats at the base, fasting and no snacking between meals to keep insulin low, non-starchy vegetables above that, and fruit and starchy vegetables as an optional lever for energy and performance. He also explains why he recommends removing grains, processed sugar, and seed oils.   Dr. Jockers also shares the story of his patient Phil, who lost 50 pounds in four months after making these changes, and answers the most common questions about the new pyramid, including why doctors promoted the old one, whether fiber is essential, why seed oils are a problem now, and whether a high-fat diet is dangerous for the heart.   In This Episode:  00:00 Seed Oils Health Risks 00:23 Welcome and Episode Setup 04:42 Old Pyramid Failed Us 04:58 Phil Story and Bad Advice 06:33 New Pyramid Quietly Flips 07:29 Real Food Pyramid Basics 08:0
