Author Says Not Eating Enough Fat Is Killing Us (Along with Eating Too Many Carbs)
March Is National Nutrition Month
JACKSON HOLE, Wyo., March 10, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Have you been passing up whole milk, bacon, butter, cream, cheeses, full-fat yogurt and crispy chicken skin? Or do you eat them only to feel bad about it later? If so, Kelly Peterson, coauthor of The Asian Low Carb Secret: A Medically Proven System to Help You Eat Well, Stay Slim, and Regain Your Health with her physician husband Dan, has good news for you. All of these foods should be part of a healthy diet.
Just in time for National Nutrition Month and the discussion on changes the U.S. Department of Agriculture is contemplating making to its Dietary Guidelines, Kelly Peterson can cut through the confusion about what foods are good and bad for you.
She can answer such questions as:
- How can animal fats be healthier than plant fats?
- Why should you be wary of commercial packages of cereal or granola labeled sugar-free or low-carb?
- Why don't Asians need to eat rice?
- What are the crucial elements of a low-carb, high-fat (ketogenic) lifestyle?
- What can you say to skeptical friends and family members who may try to talk you out of a diet that is 80 percent fat?
- What should you do if your doctor advises taking cholesterol lowering drugs?
CREDENTIALS: Kelly Peterson is the coauthor of the beautiful new low-carb, high-fat lifestyle and cookbook, The Asian Low Carb Secret: A Medically Proven System to Help You Eat Well, Stay Slim, and Regain Your Health. The child of Chinese parents, she grew up in Singapore where she met her husband, Dan Peterson, M.D., who educated her on what was unhealthy about typical Asian diets. Dan Peterson is a specialist in preventive medicine who trained at Johns Hopkins University.
