  • In this episode, we will discuss a wide variety of landmark clinical trials regarding food and nutrition. Specifically, we will investigate how certain dietary patterns reduce the likelihood of health outcomes like cardiovascular disease, obesity, and diabetes, as well as a detailed discussion of the risk factors associated with these illnesses including the Lipoprotein insulin resistance score or LPIR, blood pressure, inflammation, cholesterol, lipoproteins, and more.

  • In today’s episode, we will investigate and review the fundamentals of scientific nutrition so that you can more easily and confidently navigate and comprehend the myriad of dietary trends, media headlines, and conflicting nutritional recommendations that we are exposed to in our everyday lives. At the end of this episode, I hope for you to have a stronger understanding of how science can be used to study food, nutrition, and health, with particular attention to the various dietary study designs, and the relative strengths, weaknesses, and limitations of each.

  • The intention of this podcast is to promote greater awareness and understanding of food, nutrition, physical activity, and other day-to-day considerations regarding health and wellness. I've titled this podcast The Simple Path to Health because becoming a healthier you can in fact be really simple. Meanwhile, there is so much information out there that it also can be very overwhelming and confusing. Instead, my goal is to keep things practical, easy to understand, and applicable to you, the everyday individual.
