Nina Teicholz is a science journalist and author with a healthy focus on diet and specifically saturated fats. Her book The Big Fat Surprise dismantles decades of myths surrounding saturated fats (and carbohydrates), arguing that butter, meat, eggs and cheese are not the enemy.
The Big Fat Surprise
I don't give five stars easily, but this gets all five because it's so good. Everything the establishment tells you about diet is wrong.
I remember growing up in the 80s, when everything was low-fat and high cholesterol—which Tim Noakes has spoken about—were the boogeymen. It’s all nonsense. Saturated fats are good for you. For a long time, we have been told that the healthiest diet involves eating less fat.
Fat makes you fat, apparently.
