Red Meat & Cholesterol: Separating Fact from Fiction | Dr Kevin Maki

Описание: In this episode of The Dr. Gabrielle Lyon Show, I sit down with Dr. Kevin Maki – a renowned clinical trial expert and former president of the National Lipid Association – to break down some of the most controversial topics in nutrition science. We tackle the myths and facts surrounding red meat, cholesterol, and the growing debate over seed oils. Dr. Maki explains how epidemiology often misleads us and why randomized controlled trials remain the gold standard for shaping dietary recommendations.

Together, we discuss:

The real relationship between red meat and cholesterol levels
Why observational studies often get it wrong
Seed oils and inflammation – what does the science actually say?
Practical tips for lowering cholesterol without unnecessary food restrictions
How protein intake impacts aging and longevity
If you’ve ever been confused about whether red meat increases heart disease risk or if seed oils are harmful, this episode provides clarity backed by decades of research.
