An excellent podcast and all congrats to the host which didn't interrupt professor Lustig with personal questions as all these long-nails ladies and big muscles folks are doing around. Keep delivering humanity clear and clean information, waiting for other podcasts with Dr Bickman, Dr RickJohnson and other great health modern miners
I am very very disappointed. once, some 5 or 6 y ago, Dr. Lustig made me awae about the sugar problem. But here, this presentation is just awful. he tries to whitewash being fat by constructing a paper tiger and engaging wrong arguments. At mark @7.00 you can observe how a statistics is getting constructed and abused : first you focus on an arbitrary threshold, in this case "obesity is BMI of 30+", then define the opposite as "nomal", and next you present the conundrum that in normal weight people obesity rises. At @8:28 he even starts to call people with a BMI of 30 "thin". ...holy crap.... Sorry, since when is a BMI between 25 and 30 normal weight? It is even medically rated as "overweight". By any means "normal" would be for BMI
Thank you for uploading
