Panel discussion on "Low carb high fat diets: Public controversies and opportunities"

We suggest that you read the text the video below first.

Chair: Fiona Godlee: (56 minutes)

Published by; Swiss Re: - June 2018

Fiona Godlee, Editor in Chief, The BMJ, moderated the panel discussion on "Low carb high fat diets: Public controversies and opportunities" at the Swiss Re Institute's "Food for thought: The science and politics of nutrition" conference on 14 - 15 June 2018 in Rüschlikon, Zürich, Switzerland.

These are some of the top diet gurus in the world. Sarah Hallberg was NOT, one of the speakers who gave formal presentations (20 min each) at the conference. It was a two day conference. Sarah Hallberg was given 5 minutes at the beginning to put forward her rather different point of view. She speaks five times during the hour.

OFH suggests you watch the first 17 minutes. Almost all the people asking questions are very well known personalities. If you are short of time also listen to the summary beginning at 54 minutes.

Sarah Hallberg, Medical Director and Founder, Indiana University Health Arnett Medical Weight Loss Program, Indiana University Health: Low Carb Diabetes Reversal.
