Tune in as we break down the science related to a low carbohydrate and a low fat diet. We compare and contrast the research and pick a winner at the end!
During the episode we talk about the history of nutritional research, the anti-sugar community (as well as the anti-fat community), whether or not sugar is addictive, is sugar bad for you, is fat bad for you, what is the optimal approach for weight/fat loss, the obesity epidemic as it relates to food availability, the satiety index of different foods, and SO MUCH MORE!

study on overweight nondiabetic women (11) isocaloric, showed that low fat decreased liver fat, and high fat increased it. Insulin also increased in low fat diet: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/15741262/
Another study with calories and protein equated that showed that high fat increased liver fat and decreased metabolic flexibility in healthy overweight
