Hey, this is the Eat-Lift podcast. I'm with my dad, Dr. Furman.

0:17.3

Hi, everybody, and I'm with my daughter, Jenna.

0:19.4

I'm going to have some fun.

0:20.4

Today we're going to talk about fish. Is fish friend or foe? Is it good for you or bad for you? I feel like on the internet there's so many different sides to this conversation, so I'm really excited to dive in and find out the answer. It'll be fun. Let's do it. And we want to, to of course give people as much information as possible so

0:39.9

they can make the decision for themselves totally so i i think what i love is love and hate is you

0:47.2

always give me the good and the bad on these topics here are the pros about eating that here are the

0:51.9

cons and some of the time it's not such a black and white answer.

0:56.0

Yes or no.

0:57.0

Right.

0:58.0

Well, you know, there's a lot of, when people have a predetermined bias, they want to present

1:03.0

just one side of the story and that you can't trust what they're saying.

1:07.0

So I'm trying to spend as much time as I can looking at both sides of every issue and going through all the data because it's my passion to really do what's best and live the healthiest life possible and share that with my audience as to what I've determined is my recommendations, but also how I came to that recommendation, not by looking to collect information that boosters one side of the story. I have no predetermined side of the story. Right. You're saying you're like a completely non-biased empirical scientist. A blank sheet, a blank sheet, but then it takes more effort like if you're looking at some relationship between a food and disease. It takes a big effort to review a thousand studies, not just pick two or three that you think support your viewpoint. You've got to say, well, is there any other studies on this? I've got to look at all thousands and see where the evidence points is in a holistic fashion. And you always taught me to look at the long-term study, so not just like how they behaved, you know, in a couple months or a couple of years, but looking over the course of 50 years, 100 years.

2:03.0

Because we're trying to push that envelope on longevity. So I want to be healthy into my 90s.

2:08.5

That's what makes, I think, my advice somewhat different. What you just said is because I'm seeing what are, you know, if we're going to live longer, if we're going to eat a dietary portfolio that's going to enable us not to have a low risk of cancer and almost a zero risk of heart attacks and strokes,

2:25.9

then we're going to live longer, then what are our other risks that might prevail in our life if we're living past the age of 90 in those last 10 years of life,

2:33.8

which we're not, you know, I'm saying the average lifespan of a healthy person should be between

2:37.0

97 and 107 years old. And what's going to be for us to make those last 10 years of life

2:43.0

not enjoyable? And so we have to be proactive to live a healthy life so we can not just live

2:50.0

longer, but have our full mental

2:51.6

and physical faculties in that later part of our life. And that's where other people don't have

2:56.8

the same viewpoints as I do, because they're not looking to maximize your health in the last decade

3:02.0

of life. They're just doing what's better than average. Right. And I love what you say about
