0:00.0	Welcome to the Commune podcast. My name is Jeff Krasno. So I do a tremendous amount of research for the interviews that I feature on this podcast. And from time to time, I feel compelled to record videos that summarize longer interviews and consolidate information in a more concise manner.
0:28.0	This episode features the audio from such a recent video.
0:32.8	A few weeks ago, I interviewed Karina Belizei, founder of Orlo Nutrition, on the nature of fats,
0:41.7	healthy fats, unhealthy fats, and neutral fats.
0:45.2	I often say that the two most debated questions in the history of the world are,
0:51.0	why are we here and what should we put in our mouths? This episode addresses

1:03.9	from what sources, and which ones we should avoid in their elementary origins. So I hope you find it useful. If you're interested in the
1:14.3	video version of this episode, you can find it and all my podcasts on the Commune YouTube channel.
1:22.2	Also, if you're interested in functional and integrative medicine-based programs with fantastic doctors like

2:11.4	deeply appreciate it. Okay, without further delay, here's today's episode titled,
2:17.2	Does Fat Make You Fat?
2:33.9	Fats made a very poor choice when it came to PR companies.
2:39.3	At least they did in the 70s when we were told that fats make you fat, right?
2:44.9	That seems logically from a nomenclature perspective to make sense, right?
2:49.1	I eat fat and then I get fat.
