This podcast explores alarming trends in red meat, poultry, and vegetable oil consumption, revealing that despite decreased intake of saturated fats and red meat, chronic diseases like obesity and heart disease are rising. The discussion emphasizes the potential health risks associated with increased consumption of polyunsaturated vegetable oils and processed foods.
