A womans TikTok on her diet has gone viral for the very reaction her boyfriend gave as she described what shes been doing to lose weight.

On August 4, Angel Mapes, of St. Petersburg, Fla., shared a video in which she jokingly told her followers about her weight loss routine.

Its been about a month now, Mapes says in the clip. I have changed my eating habits. I have cut out carbs completely. Yes, that includes alcohol. I have not had alcohol in a month.

@boss_mom_official

He thinks Im live in my Facebook group talking about my diet ##boyfriendprank ##dietprank ##prank ##weightlossprank ##fyp ##foryoupage ##foryou

At that point, Mapes boyfriend, who is unaware that he is being recorded, looks at the camera seemingly shocked and motions toward the glass of wine that is sitting in clear view.

Its tough, but I know its worth it, Mapes continues. Its just not eating though. Ive been waking up early I dont eat sugar at all, no candy, no popcorn, nothing at all.

The Florida woman then proceeds to talk about her workout regimen.

Walk as much as possible, Mapes say, as her boyfriend sips his water. I look at my phone everyday and I try to get between 8,000 and 10,000 steps a day.

At that moment, Mapes boyfriend spits out his water and apologizes for doing so, knowing completely well that Mapes is lying. In a text overlay, Mapes writes, I got a 1000 steps yesterday. and he knows that.

Towards the end of the clip, the womans boyfriend gets up to clean up his mess but not before he jokingly mocks Mapes.

Since the video was shared, it has received over 1.7 million likes and more than 21,500 comments.

So cute how he tried not to interrupt even though he knew you were lying! one person wrote.

When he spit out his drink I lost it, another wrote.

Mapes prank follows a trend in which TikTok users have filmed videos pretending to be influencers when, in fact, theyre actually recording the reactions of those watching them. An 18-year-old from South Africa similarly went viral for discussing her fake fitness regimen.

Two weeks later, on his morning ride to Gillette Stadium during the first week of training camp, Sanu was still listening to the book, but he had returned to the beginning.

If youre relentless, there is no halfway, read the narrator. Or could or should or maybe. Dont tell me the glass is half-full or half-empty. You either have something in that glass or you dont.

The purpose of Relentless is to teach competitors how to train their minds not only to reach their goals but to achieve even more. Grover breaks down the importance of various mental tactics, such as becoming comfortable, being uncomfortable, and channeling energy instead of emotions. His words resonated with Sanu, who turns 31 Saturday.

It changed my entire mind-set and really sparked the way I attacked this offseason, Sanu said.

So, how did he find out about Grovers book? Sanus trainer, Drew Lieberman, recommended he check it out.

Lieberman, a 2013 Wesleyan graduate with nine years of coaching experience, is living with Sanu in his Boston apartment. They met a couple of years ago via mutual connections from Rutgers, where Sanu played three seasons of football and Lieberman was later on the coaching staff for two years.

After training together a dozen or so times last summer, the pair stayed in close touch. Lieberman would text Sanu throughout the season, sending him feedback on film. Their bond strengthened when Sanu was traded to the Patriots in October because Lieberman, who was working in New Jersey, was able to attend one of his games in Foxborough.

He then attended the next home game and the next game and the one after that.

A few months later, Sanu tapped Lieberman to become his full-time trainer.

I really wanted to get better and invest more in myself and in my game, Sanu said. Drew and I built a great relationship over the last few years, and I really came to trust his knowledge of the details of wide receiver play and football overall.

But mostly, I chose Drew because I can trust him and I know that he will always tell me what I need to hear and not what I want to hear.

Prior to training camp, Sanus typical workday consisted of stretching, running routes, ball drills, pushing through a speed workout, and analyzing film. Mixed in were massages and physical therapy appointments to continue his rehab following offseason surgery to repair a high ankle sprain.

Lieberman also tried to integrate other daily outdoor activities, depending on their location. In Atlanta, they power-walked up Stone Mountain four times a week, sometimes with Sanus former Falcons teammate, Julio Jones. In Los Angeles, they climbed Runyon Canyon. In Wellfleet, Sanu ran routes while at the beach.

Back in Boston, theyve kept mainly to city walks and bike rides, though Blue Hills Reservation is on their radar.

Coming back from an ankle injury, something we focused on a lot was making him work out on different surfaces, whether it be an intense hike or doing a workout in the sand or doing some barefoot stuff on the grass, Lieberman said. Just finding different ways to challenge his ankle to react and respond and cut off of different surfaces.

Lieberman rewatched the 15 games Sanu played last season and created a checklist of focus areas for the offseason. One of the improvements, he says, is the effectiveness of Sanus releases at the line of scrimmage, with his movements becoming more intentional.

When watching Sanu run routes, Lieberman pays close attention to details, whether thats telling him to keep his inside foot more firm or to tighten down certain steps. They record every workout in order to review the footage and coaching points later in the evening, too.

The fixes are very, very, very small, Lieberman said. When you really get into the details, were really trying to perfect every little aspect of it. Theres always plenty that can be fixed.

Perhaps the most noticeable change Sanu has made? Toning his body and increasing his muscle definition, thanks to a combination of work from Lieberman, Sanus speed coach Kyle Meadows, and his chef, Arenthious Baker.

From an explosive standpoint, from an athletic standpoint, he just has completely reinvented his body, Lieberman said. Hes definitely leaned out. We felt as though he had some extra fat that was not doing anything for him other than adding more weight to his height and weight profile. It was not making him a better player.

Often, Sanu is the subject of videos posted on Liebermans instructional channel, The Sideline Hustle. Lieberman showcases some of their ball drills, from juggling two tennis balls and a football to playing catch with two tennis balls and a football, as well as Sanu in action.

Hes constantly finding new ways to challenge me and push me past my limits, Sanu said. We were able to take our work to a totally different level. Film study, field work, ball drills, mental work every single day.

In their downtime, the pair like to spend time reflecting and talking through insecurities, doubts, or whatever may be going on in each others heads. With training camp picking up steam, Lieberman expects his role will revolve less around Sanus physical condition and more around his mind-set.

Despite their busy schedules, the two certainly find time to relax, usually watching TV Sanu enjoys the Japanese series Baki on Netflix or exploring Boston. Recently they went whale watching with Sanus 4-year-old son.

As for what to expect once the season gets underway?

Entering his ninth year in the league, Sanu is looking to bounce back from a season in which he acknowledges he underperformed. While battling an ankle injury, he posted 26 catches for 207 yards in eight games with the Patriots; his worst production since 2015.

But Lieberman emphasizes that its not all about the numbers. Instead, he preaches that production will take care of itself if Sanu minimizes the number of reps he wishes he could have back.

I cant control what people think about me or how they choose to remember me, added Sanu. I know what I think of myself and the standard I hold myself to. I play because I love the game. I love the process, I love the work, I love playing football.

Here's what you might have missed this weekend ...

Dame Time is all weekend long.

Averaging 37.6 points in the eight seeding games, Portland Trail Blazers star Damian Lillard was unanimously voted the best in the bubble on Saturday. Later that day, Lillard scored 31 points to beat the Memphis Grizzlies and secure the eighth seed in the Western Conference playoffs.

Then, Saturday night, Lillard, a.k.a. Dame D.O.L.L.A. released three new hip hop tracks on Soundcloud under the title "Live From The Bubble."

Buckets. Bars. Have a Saturday, Damian Lillard.

Last week, Olympic gold medal swimmer Katie Ledecky swam the length of a pool with a glass of chocolate milk on her head.

Well, the bar has been raised.

Celebrity chef Giada De Laurentiis, and Italian food aficionado, took to her pool and swam with, naturally, a bowl of pasta on her head.

Hopefully this starts a real trend of swimming with foods that are increasingly more messy. Rack of ribs? Ramen? Bowl of Lucky Charms? Somebody step up.

As Cleveland Browns training camp opened, QB Baker Mayfield told reporters that he was in better shape. Mayfield, who said he added four pounds of lean mass, was watching what he ate, especially Mexican food.

Stay strong, Baker, but don't let anyone put a Torchy's Tacos within driving distance of the Browns' headquarters.

Philadelphia Flyers winger Oskar Lindblom finished cancer treatment in July, turned 24 on Saturday, and finally rejoined his teammates.

"Now I'm here and I'm happier than ever," Lindblom said Sunday.

Did you know that every five years the federal government, along with input from a committee of health and policy experts, puts out updated nutrition guidelines for the nation? Right now, the 2020-2025 Dietary Guidelines for Americans are in the final stages of being released. The Dietary Guidelines provide evidenced-based nutrition recommendations for individuals two years and older to make healthy choices about food and drink every day. Unlike fad diets that are all about short-term food restriction, these guidelines focus on informing the overall eating patterns of Americans, building upon the previous five years of scientific research.

Just last month an 835-page report by the 20-person expert advisory committee was published laying the foundation for these new guidelines. The U.S. Department of Agriculture and the Department of Health and Human Services will use this report to develop the 2020-2025 Dietary Guidelines for Americans to be released by the end of the year.

The Dietary Guidelines for Americans have always evoked some controversy surrounding the focus on whats needed for Americans to achieve better health through food and nutrition. This time around there were requests to extend the committees deadline due to time constraints posed by the COVID-19 pandemic and to be able to include a wider range of research. However, the report has been published and here are some of the main areas that are different than what weve seen in the past:

No solid evidence on meal frequency and timing.

While intermittent fasting and eating five small meals a day have grown in popularity as alternatives to the traditional three meals per day, there is not enough science to recommend one pattern over others. At the same time, it does appear that diet quality is better in those who eat three times a day compared to just two times. Also, late-night eating is often associated with poorer food choices.

Moderate alcohol intake for men gets downsized.

Previous versions of the Dietary Guidelines defined moderate alcohol intake as one drink per day for women and one to two drinks per day for men. This latest report reduces the recommendation to just one drink per day for both men and women. Plus, the report fails to mention any potential benefits of moderate alcohol consumption, which have been alluded to in past guidelines.

Infant feeding and the role of reducing food allergies later in life.

Landmark food allergy studies published over the past decade or so have led to a significant change in the understanding of how to reduce the risk of food allergies. It is likely that the role of early introduction of peanuts and eggs during the first year of life in reducing food allergies will now be included in the new Dietary Guidelines.

We should be eating even less sugar than we thought.

While the 2015 Dietary Guidelines recommended keeping daily added sugar intake to no more than 10 percent of calories, the newest recommendations support reducing daily sugar limits to under 7 percent. Considering most Americans get about 13 percent of their calories from added sugars from items like sugar-sweetened drinks, breakfast cereal and candy, we can benefit by cutting this sugar intake in half. The new inclusion of theAdded Sugarsline on the Nutrition Facts Food Label can help us choose foods with less added sugar.

Connecting food choices with environmental health.

While the primary focus of the Dietary Guidelines for Americans is on improving eating patterns for better health outcomes, the reports authors would like to see environmental sustainability included in the 2020-2025 Dietary Guidelines for Americans. Public comments called for the evaluation of the social and ecological effects of dietary recommendations. Ultimately, food manufacturing and production has an environmental impact that cannot be separated from nutrition advice. Only time will tell if sustainability will be included in the highly anticipated Dietary Guidelines.

Lee Labrada has cemented an impressive legacy in the world of professional bodybuilding; in addition to having won multiple titles, including Mr. Universe in 1985, he also placed in the Top 4of the prestigious Mr. Olympia competition for seven years in a row, a feat he shares with Arnold Schwarzenegger.

While he hasn't officially competed in a pro bodybuilder event since 1995 (when he ranked in the Top 5 at the Arnold Classic), Labrada is still in amazing shape at the age of 60. In fact, he looks like he could oil up and take to the stage at any moment.

Labrada, who authored a book on fitness in 2005, and founded his own company, Labrada Nutrition, recently showed off his huge, vascular legs on Instagram. He also shared some insights into the current diet plan and training routine that help him stay healthyand ripped.

"So I have fans and friends ask me, 'Lee, what kind of shape are you in these days?' I couldnt resist. Not bad for 60 years old right?" He wrote. "Makes the case for muscle maturity."

"I still train with weights almost every day, and on days that I don't, I do cardio," he continued. "I also eat a clean diet, but it's not restricted calorically. Which means I'm never hungry. I eat as much as I want of clean foods: lots of fish, chicken and dairy, lots of fruits and vegetables, rice, yams and oatmeal, and I try to stick with whole foods... Nothing too fancy, just good nutrition. Consistency is the key. I follow this program pretty much every day."

Bodybuilder Lee Labrada Shared the Simple Diet and Training Plan That Keep Him Shredded at 60 - Men's Health

While most cats and dogs are still being fed 'conventional' wet and dry food, there has been a distinct shift in feeding practices over the past decade to include raw and home-made foods, particularly in Australia, finds an international study, published in this week's issue ofVet Record.

These 'unconventional' diets may help nurture the bond between pets and their owners, but they may also be storing up health problems for these animals, warn the researchers.

Over half the world's population has a pet: in the US alone there are more than 94 million pet cats and 89 million pet dogs.

There is a vast array of 'conventional' wet (tinned, pouches, rolls) and dry (kibble) commercial food options for cats and dogs in developed countries.

But trends in animal nutrition have mirrored those of human nutrition, with the content and origin of commercially available foodstuffs coming in for closer scrutiny. As such, pet owners have been exploring alternative options, including vegan, natural 'ancestral', grain-free, home-made and raw food diets for their dogs and cats.

To look at the extent of this shift over the past decade, the researchers trawled research databases for studies on feeding practices for pet dogs and cats in English-speaking countries and published between 2008 and 2018.

They found nine relevant studies, which indicate that pet feeding practices have changed over the past decade, with a decline in 'conventional products', particularly as the sole diet, and an increase in 'unconventional' diets, especially raw foods.

"In comparison with earlier studies, the differences in feeding practices may partially be explained by a loss of trust in the pet food industry," suggest the researchers, citing a large global pet food contamination crisis that occurred in 2007.

The researchers also mined the 3161 (88%) responses to a widely distributed online survey, from pet owners in Australia, New Zealand, USA, Canada, and the UK. The survey, which ran from September 2016 to January 2017, asked pet-owners what they fed their dogs and cats, and where they sourced it.

Half the respondents had dogs (51%; 1870); 1 in 3 had both cats and dogs (33%; 1200); and around 1 in 6 (16%; 603) only cats. Complete dietary information was provided for 1542 cats and 2940 dogs.

This showed that most animals were fed a diet that included some conventional food (79% of dogs; 90% of cats). But only 13% (381) dogs and around a third (32%; 488) of cats were exclusively fed a conventional diet for their main meals.

Many respondents said they fed their animals a diet that included home-made foods (63.5% of dogs; 45.5% of cats), although few were fed this diet exclusively (7% of dogs; 3.5% of cats).

Raw animal foods were fed to over half of all the animals represented in the survey: two thirds of dogs (66%) and 53% of cats. Vegetarian food was included in the diets of around 1 in 5 (22%) dogs and 1 in 20 (5%) cats. Half of these animals were fed only plant based (vegan) foods.

Feeding practices varied among the countries represented in the survey: exclusive raw food diets were most common in Australia, while exclusive home-made diets were more commonly fed to dogs in Australia and cats in the USA.

Pet-owners in Canada and New Zealand were most likely to feed their dogs and cats an exclusively conventional diet.

"Avoidance of conventional pet foods in favour of [home-made] and [raw food products] may put the health of dogs and cats at risk," warn the researchers, citing published analyses indicating insufficient levels of nutrients or imbalances in these diets and associated health conditions.

Home-made raw food diets pose an additional risk of infection in the absence of chemical or heat treatment steps to kill potentially harmful bacteria and act as a potential reservoir of antibiotic resistant microbes which can be passed on to people, they add.

"Considering the high prevalence of unconventional feeding practices, veterinary healthcare teams must be aware of the potential risks and benefits of these practices and educate their clients to help best meet the nutritional needs of their companion animals," they conclude.

Fitness YouTuber Will Tennyson loves trying out other people's diets and workout plans. He's already followed Mark Wahlberg's training and eating schedule for 24 hours, as well as Mike Tyson and Arnold Schwarzenegger's routines. Those aren't the only fitness icons he's mimicked, since he tried out Jason Statham's plan, too.

"The actual G.O.A.T. He is a beast, martial artist, weight trainerhe is ripped," says Tennyson.

His day starts with a hearty breakfast of poached eggs, oatmeal and fruit.

And while Tennyson doesn't have the exact amounts of how much Statham eats throughout the day, he's using the actor's height and weight (5'8", 180 pounds) to guess. The final calorie and macro count for breakfast are: 600 calories, 30g protein, 73g carbs, 21g fat.

According to Tennyson, Statham's diet is reportedly 95 percent clean, healthy foods and, and the other 5 percent are indulgences like chocolate.

"If he does have stuff like that, he mentions that he has it earlier in the day to burn off the sugar and excess starches before he goes to bed," says Tennyson.

From there, Tennyson moves on to discuss Statham's workout plan.

"You're gonna notice there's no bodybuilding at all," says Tennyson. "Every single day he goes to the gym he trains a different element. It could be speed, strength power, agility. He's in the gym or doing some sort of physical activity six days a week."

He lays out his weekly workout plan:

Day 1: Progression to 1 rep max deadliftDay 2: Functional circuit, 'The Big 55 Workout' (55 reps of every single exercise)Day 3: Interval workout on rower (6 rounds, 500 meters)Day 4: Front squats (sets of 5, works up to heavier weight)Day 5: Cumulative movements (rope pulls, rope slams, medicine ball slams, rope climbs)Day 6: Contextual effort (picks an activity he likes to do like hiking or swimming)Day 7: Rest

Tennyson chooses to do Day 3 (interval rowing) for his workout later in the day. Check out this feature for some extra details about the training plan.

But first comes lunch time, and he whips up Statham's pre-workout meal that is totally vegan: brown rice, steamed veggies, and miso soup. The final calorie and macro count for lunch are: 470 calories, 17g protein, 94g carbs, 3g fat.

Tennyson also says that Statham likes to drink a minimum of 3 liters of water everyday.

Next, he heads to the gym for his rowing workout. The warmup is a 10-minute row at 20 strokes per minute.

"That alone is probably going to finish me off," says Tennyson.

After that, does 6 rounds of 500 meters with 3 minutes of rest between each round, attempting to hit Statham's splits range between 1:38 to 1:50.

"That was wicked. Wow," says Tennyson after completing the intervals. "That was really tiring. By the fourth round, I was gassed."

He grabs a quick snack afterwards of raw cashews and peanut butter. The final calorie and macro count for the snack are: 440 calories, 14g protein, 20g carbs, 34g fat.

Then he heads home to make dinner, which he eats at 7 pm because Statham likes to stop eating at 7 pm. Dinner includes: lean beef, chicken breast, fish and a salad. The final calorie and macro count for dinner are: 985 calories, 148g protein, 10g carbs, 39g fat.

Tennyson finishes up his day as Jason Statham with a final calorie and macro count of: 2,495 calories, 209g protein, 197g carbs, 97g fat.

"It was a really nice balance of protein, carbs and fats," says Tennyson. "And I really enjoyed the workout, even though it was extremely challenging."

Calcium isn't justfor old people who worry about osteoporosis or risk of fractures. It's an essential mineral that helps your muscles to contract and your heart to beat, your blood to clot, and yes, your bones to get stronger. It also keeps you from gaining weight since the more calcium in your diet the morelikely you'll burn off energy rather than store it as fat.

Here are the best plant-based foods to help you get thecalcium you need when you're not eating dairy (either because you're plant-based or lactose intolerant) and you need to pay attention. But first, let's look at the importance of calcium and the right amount to shoot for.

It's hard to get enough calcium on any diet, much less a plant-based or non-dairy one. The recommended daily intake of calcium is around 1,200 mg to 1300 mg a day, which equals two tothree portions of dairy, or the equivalent. Calcium has an important role to play in bone strength and also contributes to muscle contraction, nerve transmission, cellular signaling, and prevention of weight gain, among other essential jobs in the body,

Evenfor someone consuming dairy, it is difficult to reach these requirements. Add a special diet, such as a dairy-free, low-fat or plant-based diet to themix and your intake of calcium generally falls well below the recommended daily requirements.

Most of us will live into old age when osteoporosis becomes a risk, and suddenly getting enough calcium jumps to the top of your list of dietary priorities, where it belongs. In a study in the lab, the more calcium you have in your fat cells, the more likely they are to burn off as fuel.

The good news is that it's actually possible to get enough calcium, if you know where to look, to build bone strength and prevent weight gain. Your best bet: head to the produce aisle.

First of all, we may be able to lower those ambitiousgoal numbers: In a review article by the Harvard Medical School, the recommended daily value was challenged and the calcium intake that is advised is between 500mg and 700mg daily. This equates to the more achievable one to two portions of calcium-rich foods per day. What is a portion of dairy replacement exactly?

There are other foods, such as oranges, dried fruit, nuts (especially almonds), and broccoli that contain smaller amounts of calcium, and whenyoutrack your total daily amount of calcium it adds up quickly. Recent evidenceindicates that a plant-based diet can provide adequate amounts of calcium and vitamin D.The study concluded that"there is no evidence that aplant-baseddiet, when carefully chosen to maintain adequate calcium and vitamin D levels, has any detrimental effects onbonehealth."

Other research shows plant-based diets may lower the risk of osteoporosis, even in postmenopausal women most at risk. What is interesting is that when it comes to bone strength, fruit consumption seems to impart a greater benefit than vegetables, which makes long term ketogenic diets that exclude fruits a less healthy diet choice. The exact mechanism is still not known, but it may involve the interplay between phytonutrients, prebiotics and probiotics and immune and inflammatory responses in the body.

Are there any risks involved if one sticks to the lower recommended amounts of 500 mg to 700 mg of calcium a day? Studies have shown that increased calcium intake generally does not increase bone strength or prevent osteoporotic fractures, although it may reduce the development of atherosclerosis. There is, however, a critical level of 400 mg, below which the risk of vertebral fractures increases. Interestingly, weight-bearing exercise is an often overlooked and major contributor to bone health. Regular exercise, in fact, significantly reduces the risk of developing vertebral fractures, irrespective of the calcium intake above the 400mg threshold. The best bet, a study in Italy found, is to both get exercise and eat calcium-rich foods.

Supplementing calcium intake can do more harm than good, since calcium supplements, particularly above 500mg a day were found to increase coronary artery calcification, with a higher risk of cardiovascular disease, particularly myocardial infarctions. So while eating more calcium does not appear to increase risk of heart disease, taking it in supplement form does.

In addition, calcium supplements, especially when combined with vitamin D supplements, may increase the risk of kidney stones, one study found. So how to get your calcium on a plant-based diet? Simply eat these even foods as often as possible.

In addition, calcium supplements, especially when combined with vitamin D supplements, may increase the risk of kidney stones,one studyfound. So how to get your calcium on a plant-based diet? Simply eat these seven foods as often as possible.

And keep in mind that in order to maintain healthy bones,add daily exercise to your routine, preferably outdoors to get vitamin D by exposing skin to sunlight for short amountsof time each day.Meanwhile avoid habits that damage your bones, such as smoking, overuse of alcohol andsoft drinkconsumption.

7 Best Calcium Foods to Boost Bone Health and Prevent Weight Gain - The Beet

The observation that diet and health are related can be traced back at least to Maimonides a 1,000 years ago and Hippocrates over 2,000 years ago. With advances in public health measures and medical care, the average lifespan has been dramatically extended. Unfortunately, many of the extra years are burdened with chronic diseases, like heart disease and cancer.

More than ever, trying to determine what diet is most related to health is of importance to living a long life without disease. Nutrition science can be difficult, complex, and conflicting at times. What can you do when headlines appear that are in direct conflict with one another? Is the media biased, or even bought?

In the last few months, this situation has exploded, and it pertains to the role of whole food plant diets and heart disease. Research on the contribution of foods rich in saturated fats like cheese, butter, meats, eggs, and pastries to heart disease has been ongoing since the 1950s. In order to evaluate the most current and quality data, a systematic review and meta-analysis of the relationship between saturated fat and heart disease were published by the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews (CDSR)in May. The CDSR is widely regarded as the leading and most respected of sources for evaluating topics in health care.

The authors analyzed 15 controlled trials involving over 59,000 subjects and concluded that The findings of this updated review suggest that reducing saturated fat intake for at least two years causes a potentially important reduction in combined cardiovascular events (21%). Replacing the energy from saturated fat with polyunsaturated fat or carbohydrate appears to be useful strategies. It would seem clear that reducing or eliminating meats, cheeses, egg yolks, lard, butter, ghee and baked goods would favor better odds of avoiding heart disease. Of note, major media channels did not report on this research and it was buried in the National Library of Medicine.

The clarity on nutrition advice provided by the esteemed CDSR lasted all of 3-4 weeks as a State of the Art Review by 12 authors on the topic of saturated fat and health was published in a major cardiology journal on June 16, 2020. They did not conduct original research but analyzed previously published studies. The 12 authors concluded that Whole-fat dairy, unprocessed meat, eggs and dark chocolate are SFA-rich foods with a complex matrix that are not associated with increased risk of CVD. The totality of available evidence does not support further limiting the intake of such foods. Unlike the esteemed CDSR paper, this review created 100s of headlines worldwide.

How can we reconcile such conflicting conclusions? It is challenging and leaves many confused, feeling that they can eat whatever they want while nutrition scientists duke it out. One major concern not mentioned in the media regarding the 2nd paper promoting saturated fat was that 9 of the 12 authors disclosed research funding by dairy or beef foundations. Lets repeat that: 75% of the authors promoting saturated fat were funded by industry organizations that promote foods rich in saturated fat!

In a second challenge to the findings of the CDSR, 10 authors published a hypothesis that those suffering from a relatively rare genetic disorder causing high cholesterol, familial hyperlipidemia, would benefit more from a low-carbohydrate diet than a low-fat diet. The authors did not conduct original research. Guess what? Five of the 10 authors revealed financial ties that they benefit from relating to low-carb diets. The other 5 are well known low-carb advocates routinely advocating for dietary approaches in conflict with major medical societies and research findings. Would you be surprised that this paper also got worldwide headlines indicating that a new paradigm had been identified?

Are there any ways to approach nutrition research with a system you can digest when new data and conflicting reports appear? I rely on two leading research scientists who have proposed such an approach:One is Valter Longo, Ph.D., author of The Longevity Diet, creator of the plant-based Fasting Mimicking Diet, and internationally known leading academic researcher.

Dr. Longo describes the Five Pillars of Longevity as a format to evaluated nutrition research. These 5 pillars are:1) biochemical research, 2) randomized trials, 3) epidemiology, 4) study of centenarians, and finally, 5) analysis of complex systems (like the environmental impact of diet). For example, Dr. Longo considers the popular keto diet to bea half a pillar at most as it lacks many of the components of this analytical system. In contrast, Dr. Longo teaches a plant-based diet in his book as it encompasses all 5 pillars.

The other leading scientist is Nobel Prize Laureate Michael Brown, MD who was awarded this high honor in 1985 for his research on the LDL cholesterol.Dr. Brown delivered a lecture titled A Century of Cholesterol and Coronaries and described a method of evaluating the scientific literature on the relationship between cholesterol and heart disease. He called the method the Four Lines of Evidence. These 4 lines were remarkably similar to the Pillars described by Dr. Longo. Together they provide a framework to consider new information in a meaningful and big picture way.

What can be concluded regarding saturated fat and heart disease? Should you add butter to your coffee tomorrow? One study was published by an esteemed organization (CDSR). The other two were written by authors with major financial biases, including investments in companies dedicated to promoting diets high in saturated fats.

Using the 5 Pillars or the 4 Lines of Evidence, there exists biochemistry, randomized trials, epidemiology, and Centenarian data that indicate that diets lower in saturated fats (reduced or absent meats, cheeses, butter, pastries, lard, ghee) promote health and reduce the risk of heart disease. No single new study can up-end 70 years of research, even if a new study can get inordinate and inappropriate praise in the media. While nutrition science can be challenging, using the methods here as a guidepost to the research you believe will help you make healthy decisions about your diet. One simple rule: Always favor plant-based selections. Do not believe all media headlines. They can be bought or, at a minimum, influenced, by a flow of dollars that generates clickbait headlines.
