Get ready to take a flamethrower to the official narrative and learn what the elites don't want you to know.

You're listening to The Tom Woods Show.

Hey everybody, Tom Woods here. It's episode 2,569 of the Tom Woods show. And I'm very glad to be joined once again after a long interlude, Nina Teichels, who is the author of The Big Fat Surprise, Why Butter, Meat, and Cheese belong in a healthy diet. I have a lot to tell you about with regard

to her and her accomplishments and how significant she is. And we will be talking about this

throughout our conversation. But we have to talk about these dietary guidelines that I guess

the USDA puts out. And it's like they are determined to live in 1978 forever.

Like no new knowledge has occurred to anybody as if we're just to continue on like the food

pyramid requires no revision. It's unbelievable how fact-free these people are and how impervious

to new knowledge they are. So,

Nina, welcome back. It's great to be here, Tom. Thanks for having me. Now, do you think I'm

overstating? Am I just being melodramatic when I speak that way?

You know, I don't think you're overstating it, but I would just like to kind of set the context

here for listeners you may not know about guidelines or think

they're irrelevant and they're in the u.s and they're also in the u.k you know the n hs puts out its

equal plate and their guidelines all over the world for different countries and they all basically

say the same thing which was started we started them in the united states i'm sorry to say we

exported this to everyone globally,

started in 1980. Why are they important? Because people do not go to a government website for the

most part to get advice about their diets. The reason they're so important is that in the United

States, and I don't know if this is true in other countries as much, but we have a law saying that all federal programs must follow the dietary guidelines.

So school lunches, what is served to the military, which has an obesity problem equal to the rest of the population.

What is served in nursing homes?
