Dr. Cate Shanahan Shows Why PUFAs are Worse Than Sugar!
Episode description
We always thought that when it comes to substances that wreak havoc on out health, sugar was king. The reduction of sugar is usually prescribed as the first step to correcting metabolic health, and for good reason. But what if there's another, equally pervasive substance that we should be looking out for that might be even worse?
Dr. Cate Shanahan joins the show to shed light on PUFAs, polyunsaturated fatty acids. These seed oils are often touted as heart healthy, and are completely the opposite and not healthy at all. And just like sugar, it's often hidden in plain sight and basically in everything!
