Food As Medicine With Dr. Anh

Welcome! My guest today is Dr. Steven Masley, who is an accomplished physician, chef, and nutritionist. He is also the author of four cookbooks. I’ve been a big fan and follower of his for a long time and am excited to have him on the show! He has a new book coming out soon on the topic of healthy fats, so join us to hear more! Dr. Steven discusses the following : His new book is an outgrowth of the discussion about the REAL cause of heart disease, which is metabolic syndrome and pre-diabetes. His plan is based on clean protein, smart fat, fiber, and flavor! “Smart fats” include nuts (almonds, pecans, pistachios, walnuts, hazelnuts, and macadamias), salmon, sardines, avocado, dark chocolate, and olive oil. He discusses the controversy about oils, their processing, and their uses. Regarding oils, you have to know your smoke point! Some oils are safe for cooking and some are NOT! Neutral oils are those with no proven benefits or harmful effects, like grapeseed oil and unclarified butter. The goal is 5 servings
