Intervju med Stephan Guyenet
Stephan Guyenet på Whole Health Source länkar till en intervju som en annan bloggare har gjort med honom. Han pratar bland annat om:
- The little known causes of the obesity epidemic
- Why the common weight loss advice to "eat less and exercise more" isn't effective
- The long-term results of various weight loss diets (low-carb, low-fat, etc.)
- The body-fat setpoint and its relevance to weight regulation
- The importance of gut flora in weight regulation
- The role of industrial seed oils in the obesity epidemic
- Obesity as immunological and inflammatory disease
- Strategies for preventing weight gain and promoting weight loss

Bra intervju. Dessutom en mycket bra blogg som jag brukar följa.
Däremot är jag mer tveksam till hans syn på hur setpoints fungerar. Tror han hamnat fel där.
Stephan har gjort ett TEDx Talk om förändringar i den amerikanska kosten som finns på youtube. Tyvärr har det smugit sig in några fel i redigeringen av videon. En av bilderna visar han på sin hemsida.
There are two problems with the talk I want to point out right away. The first
problem is an error in one of my slides that a WHS reader recently pointed out.
At 8:10, I have a slide showing changes in dietary fat composition over the last
century in the US. I stated that polyunsaturated fat consumption has increased
by 300 percent, but actually it has increased by 200 percent. It was a math
error on my part.
The second problem is a residual issue with the
synching. At 8:39, when I'm talking about the accumulation of omega-6 linoleic
acid in human body fat over the last 50 years due to increased seed oil
consumption, the first graph doesn't show up in the synched version (it did
appear in the live talk).
Intressant att kolhydratkonsumptionen i hans slide de senaste 100 åren har minskat från 57% till 49%. Sockerkonsumptionen har ökat kraftigt, det och all fabrikstillverkad mat, godis och läsk är nog den stora orsaken till fetma och ohälsa.
