How did mankind survive for millenniums without the benefit of current knowledge? The only answer" Natural unprocessed, pesticide-free, nutrient-rich food from pristine soil. There is no nutrition school that I know of that isn't financially-supported by the Food Industry. The Food Industry gives its research to the schools for nutrition students...so the. future R.Ds will promote Food Industry products. Doctors really have to do their own nutrition research and not follow information coming from the Food Industry. They must study healthy people, in order to help their patients. Studying diseases, sick people, drugs, and treatments is not the way to go.

I have been eating organic from the grocery store for several years but didn't notice much change and recently started buying from a local farmer that claims to not use chemicals. Their food tastes much better and my body seems to feel better. I feel more like when I was young with more energy. It makes me wonder what kind of organic produce the grocery stores are getting.

Dr. McCullough - I've been watching you for the past 6 years and can't say how much I respect you. However, I have to say that in this video, you're acting a lot more defensive and I've ever seen you before--interrupting constantly, forcing your point about measuring in grams at the beginning of the conversation when it prevented her from getting to her main points, etc.. You're generally so open-minded; what happened in this case? Still love you, but I think you owe Dr. Teicholz either another opportunity to make her point without constant interruption or an apology. Your subscribers wanted to hear what she had to say--sheesh!

AI overview says: At the time of the American Civil War, the U.S. life expectancy at birth was around 40-44 years, significantly lower than today due to high rates of infant and child mortality. People who survived childhood lived longer, with a life expectancy for adults being closer to what it is now, around 68–70 years. (me talking now): In spite of the vaxmongers taking credit for the entire reduction in child mortality, about 90% of the reduction occurred before the vaccines were introduced, and for several diseases that never had vaccines developed, the mortality rate declined just like the diseases for which vaccines were developed. Several studies estimated the contribution of vaccines to child mortality decline as between 0% to at most 6%. Are you implying that pre-1900 people were dying of heart attacks from eating meat?
