Episode Description
“Simplistic and inaccurate half-truths that serve advertising and sales efforts have created confusion. We need clear, factual information, in simple English.” -Udo Erasmus
With decades of misinformation on fats and oils, many people are confused as to what to believe. Udo Erasmus’s book was first published in 1986 and now “Fats that Heal Fats That Kill” has over 200 000 copies in print! Many places that offer information on fats and oils are misinformed “facts” and politics. Udo Erasmus has made the process of gathering truthful information easier so we can make decisions on our journey to wellness for ourselves and our families.
Dr. Risk’s Thoughts
Somehow, well before I was in the health field, I knew something wasn’t right about the low-fat fad that swept the 80s and 90s. I remember when I started to live on my own and doing my own grocery shopping, I was standing in a store looking at the low-fat dairy. I wondered why this food was supposed to be so good for us, yet had to be so modified. A year later my sister tried a low-fat diet to lose weight, and gained weight. We then looked at the facts, and realized how important fats were for us. I started to put oil on all my food. After making a meal, I would just drizzle it on top, using olive oil, avocado oil, macadamia nut oil, flax oil. I found I was less hungry after each meal, and had less sugar cravings. As time went on I noticed some major health benefits. We can’t argue the importance of fats any more, which is why I was so excited to do this interview with Udo Erasmus. A pioneer in his field, helping educate us in the beginning when we were all going low-fat, and he’s still going strong.
