EP. 59: For decades, we’ve been told that saturated fat is the enemy—but what if everything you’ve heard is wrong? In this episode, we break down the history of how saturated fat was unfairly demonized, thanks to flawed research, industry influence, and government guidelines that pushed seed oils instead. We dig into the infamous Ancel Keys study and corrupt Harvard research, and how these misleading studies led to the removal of beef tallow from fast food. But the tide is turning. More people are realizing that saturated fat isn’t just harmless—it’s essential. We discuss why beef tallow is making a comeback in cooking, skincare, and even major fast-food chains. If you’ve ever wondered whether you should rethink everything you’ve been told about fat, this episode is for you.
