So the protein in a plank of salmon is the same protein that's in a Texas steak.

What's the difference?

It's the package.

The package in the salmon is essential, healthy omega-3 fatty acids.

The package in the steak is not essential, and in my view, harmful animal saturated fat.

What a cardiologist would say, listen, we love the new food pyramid.

Just get the steak, the butter, the whole milk, and the big turkey breast out of there and replace it with seafood.

Right.

So, I mean, some have gone back and these people tend to be on the keto carnivores sort of spectrum.

And they've said, wait a minute, there's a reanalysis going back to Ancel Keys and none of the feeding studies are right.

None of the epidemiologic studies are right.

And we have a green light now to consume animal fats.

And they've been reframed.

FDA Commissioner Macri was saying, well, they're healthy fats.

You know, I'm not convinced.

I've looked at the literature, trying to look at the Minnesota Heart Study and the reanalysis of it.

I think it's more what's called confirmation bias.

People who are on the keto, carnivore diet, they want to eat sticks of butter.

They really do.

And I can tell you, as a rational doctor and a cardiologist, my advice is don't eat sticks of butter.
