Join Dr. Peter McCullough, world-renowned medical expert and practicing physician for this edition of the

McCullough Report. Your life may depend on it.

Let's get real. Let's get loud. On America Loud Talk Radio. This is a McCullough report,

0:32.1

and I'm Dr. Peter McCullough. Our featured interview this week is with Dr. Nina Tasholtz, who is a PhD, and she's an investigative

0:41.0

science journalist and leader in nutrition, who has reevaluated recent studies on saturated

0:47.3

fat intake, and her conclusions are that saturated fat intake is not something bad for the body, not related to

0:55.5

corny heart disease and in fact it's good. So that's a complete reversal from, you know,

1:01.0

the prior thousands of studies on saturated fat raising LDL cholesterol, LDL

1:06.7

1:14.2

there's always three bad things in the diet. They start with S. sugars, starches, and saturated

fat diet, they want to eat lots of starch. I think neither one of those two things are good.

1:57.2

We should get rid of sugars, starches, and saturated fat, have high quality sources of

2:01.9

protein, fish, beans, nuts, egg whites, non-fat, dairy, and occasional chicken and beef, and then

2:08.0

fresh fruits and vegetables. So I think you're really going to like this interview. We go back and

2:12.2

forth. It's clear that she has her biases. I have my biases, you know, looking after patients with coronary heart disease

2:20.5

for nearly four decades. But in the end, I surprise her and I ask her about the recent announcement

2:29.1

that Dr. Ben Carson, someone who I know who's a devout Adventist, that he's been named our National
