We pay more attention to what fuel we put in our cars than we do to what fuel we put in our bodies, and you've only got one chance.
What if the dietary guidelines we've been following for years were based more on ideology than science? In this episode of 'Recovery and Transformation', host Sameer Dossani sits down with Dr. Gary Fettke, an Australian medical doctor with four decades of experience, to explore this provocative question. Dr. Fettke shares his personal journey from being a target of the food industry to becoming a vocal advocate for low-carb and ancestrally appropriate diets.
His story begins with a lawsuit for advising diabetic patients to cut down on sugar, leading him and his wife, Belinda, into a deep dive into the origins of nutritional guidelines in the US, Australia, and beyond. You'll hear about their startling discovery that these guidelines may be rooted in religious ideology rather than solid science. Dr.
Fettke also sheds light on how these dietary recommendations are being exported to developing countries, contributing to skyrocketing obesity rates, especially in Pacific nations. This conversation isn't just about food; it's about reclaiming control over your health. Dr. Fettke and Sameer discuss the broader implications of agriculture on human health, the critical role of soil nutrition, and the importance of personal responsibility in making dietary choices.
Whether you're skeptical about mainstream nutritional advice or simply curious about what fuels your body, this episode promises to be both enlightening and empowering. Tune in for a candid discussion that challenges conventional wisdom and encourages you to think critically about what you eat.
