Actually, I was so concerned about this that before I started at Harvard, I wrote a piece for Stat News that was, will a ketogenic diet make me a pariah in medical school? And what I found to be the case is behind closed doors, like people are so open to these fascinating innovations in metabolic health.

So I guess the challenge set forth before me, and I present this not as a, I'm not trying to toot my own horn for what's coming up. For me, I'm actually asking for help from everybody listening. which is that we've gone through a lot in this podcast.

I'm sure all of you listening caught moments when Mark pulled me back and was like, let's simplify this because you're going off the deep end a little bit. Clearly, I have a lot of enthusiasm for this. And I... want to find a way to engage people in the discussion in the way that is practical, functional, nuanced, and I want to scale the discussion.

And one of the big challenges there that I think everybody who's a public communicator grapples with, I'm sure you've grappled with it over the years, is how do you compete in this ecosystem of engagement bait in a way that is practical and intellectually honest. I think I've really struggled with this because- You've done a great job, honestly, better than most.

Well, it's difficult because it's like, I know exactly what I'm doing when I eat Oreo cookies to lower my cholesterol. I know the media is going to run with it and say, Harvard doctor, Harvard scientist lowers his cholesterol with Oreo cookies. And I know that's going to create confusion.

I also know that a similar thing's gonna happen when I do 720 eggs, or that it's kinda clickbaity for me to do debunked with my picture next to a giant ribeye steak when I'm debunking egg carnivore myths.
