Good Calories Bad Calories (Rebroadcast)

This week’s show is a rebroadcast of the show Good Calories Bad Calories that aired on 04/29/2009.

 

Good Calories Bad Calories

Dr Kokayi has an opportunity to interview the award winning science writer Gary Taubes. This is a truly compelling interview highlighting Mr Taubes’ very well referenced Good Calories Bad Calories. Mr Taubes has provided excellent documentation for the way that obesity has been dealt with throughout the last one hundred years in the Western world, starting with the emphasis on CHO to the latest craze around low fat diets. The myths and lack of real scientific documentation around the low fat approach to weight loss is highlighted and Mr Taubes shows the link between sugar, obesity, cardiovascular disease, diabetes and cancer.

 

Live Food for Diabetes

Dr Kokayi takes a look at live food diets along with the premier live food physician in the country, Dr Gabrielle Cousens. Dr Cousens discusses his curative work with type 1 and type 11 diabetes. His 21 day diabetic reversal program at his Tree of life Center is highlighted along with Mark Perlmutter’s documentary movie which highlights the healing journey of six diabetics under Dr Cousen’s care. Dr Cousens has a new book, “There is a Cure for Diabetes” which outlines a curative path for diabetics.
