Nathan Pritikin Speech 1978 — part six of six
May 9th, 2010
admin Nathan Pritikin is an unacknowledged hero of dietary science. I met him in 1978 when he was opening a Pritikin Center in the Royal Inn Hotel, Point Loma, San Diego. This is one of his speeches from around that time. Part six of six, circa 1978. This was 30 years ago, when his ideas were considered revolutionary. It’s fun to listen to it now and realize how brilliant he was at analyzing and distilling facts into theory. Nathan gave his seminars at a low cost and was very open and eager to discuss food and dietary requirements.

5 of 5 Diet wars – Low fat vs low carb
April 23rd, 2010

Your body uses this energy for everything from breathing to moving around. Everyone is different, but over the course of a day, an “average” man expends something like 1800 calories and an “average” woman around 1500 calories. Jon Palfreman is the producer of “Diet Wars.” It turns out that even a slight energy imbalance will, over time, have consequences. Eating only 50 calories a day more than you burn will over time translate into about one pound a year, or 30 pounds over three decades. – Is it fair to blame low fat-dietary advice (such as that contained in the USDA food pyramid) for the obesity crisis? No. While the percentage of fat in the American diet dropped from 40 percent in 1990 to around 34 percent today, the absolute amount of fat actually increased. The true explanation for the obesity epidemic is much simpler: Americans are eating more total calories. In the 1990s, the bulk of those additional calories came from carbs — mostly refined starches and sugary drinks. – How do diets work? All diets work by restricting calories. Since simply telling people to eat smaller portions doesn’t sell books, most …
