What does your rotten health attitude struggle with most?

The war between fats and carbs has raged for decades, leaving confused consumers jumping from one diet extreme to another. In this evidence-based exploration, we finally put these "usual suspects" on trial and separate nutrition fact from fiction.
Fat has spent years as public enemy number one, vilified through misguided public health campaigns that failed to distinguish between harmful trans fats and essential dietary fats. We reveal why fat is crucial for hormone production, brain health, and vitamin absorption—and why the term "fattening" was always more marketing than science. From the critical differences between saturated, monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats to the danger of the "health halo" that leads to overconsumption, we deliver practical wisdom about this misunderstood macronutrient.
Meanwhile, carbohydrates have endured their own undeserved demonisation. We explore how carbs function as preferred fuel for high-intensity activity and brain function, debunk the insulin fearmongering that's become rampant online, and explain why that rapid weight loss on low-carb diets is mostly water, not fat. The glycemic index, carb timing, and fibre's crucial role—all addressed with clarity and evidence.
What emerges is a surprisingly liberating truth: you don't need to choose between fats or carbs. A flexible approach where you swap them around based on preferences and activity levels can work brilliantly for most people. The real culprits aren't macronutrients in isolation but ultra-processed combinations of refined fats, carbs and salt designed to override our natural satiety signals.
Ready to move beyond restrictive eating dogma? This episode will transform how you think about nutrition fundamentals and give you practical strategies for making peace with both fats and carbs. Because good nutrition isn't about finding villains—it's about finding what works for your body, goals, and lifestyle.
