Making sense of nutrition | Dr Gil Carvalho
Manage episode 335339235 series 2412990
In Episode #207, Dr Gil Carvalho explains how to approach nutrition information from an evidence-based viewpoint, breaking down the details of data analysis.
In recent years, we’ve seen a huge influx of information being presented as fact without any real scientific foundations. Being able to assess the validity of these claims is critical, and Dr Carvalho offers useful insight into how a layperson can approach them.
In today’s episode, we shift the focus away from what to think about the science of nutrition onto how to think about it. You’ll learn how to assess scientific claims with Dr Carvalho’s “Three P’s” framework. We apply this framework to a few examples, exploring cooking oils, red meat, eggs, and cholesterol. We also discuss the nuance of evidence hierarchies, and much more.
Specifically, we cover:
- Intro (0:00)
- Gil’s Story (4:50)
- How we Think About Nutrition (10:30)
- What is Proof (14:50)
- Observational & Randomized Control Trials (28:40)
- Evaluating the Impact of Oil (44:07)
- Red Meat (1:22:14)
- Outro (1:54:33)
