Howdy folks!
This is an interview I did with Northern California radio personality, Nancy Weigman. The introduction is a little rough, some music and then me talking…not sure what happened with that but this is the CD made of the show by the NPR sound tech. I was on the show with Marsha Vernoga, MS, RD who happens to be…vegan. Guess what? We managed to agree on food quality, that the current food situation is a sham and if you eat meat, it should ideally be grass fed. Anyway, outside of the odd start here it’s a pretty solid interview, Nancy always does a great job on this stuff.

Nice Audio quality! Maybe they’ll divert the Public Broadcasting federal funds to your site!
Robb Wolf says
that’s the advantage of doing the show in a studio. I’m always recording mine from a different city.
Jae says
Nice show! I thought you came off very well.
It was irritating to me that the vegan nutritionist said she liked polyunsaturated fats for “reducing inflammation” and that the oils she liked were coconut oil and olive oil. Hello, coconut oil is saturated fat!
Not to mention that she brought out “The China Study” as an example of how casein may contribute to cancer, without mentioning that Campbell uses it to claim that all animal foods contribute to cancer.
There were a number of other issues like this, but it’s not worth getting into them all….
On the whole, it was a great interview. You were very good at finding common ground and being diplomatic about such things.
Robb Wolf says
Most folks would benefit greatly from soem decreased irritation ;0)
Martin says
and how about flax seed oil?
Robb Wolf says
Not my favorite, poor conversion to EPA/DHA, which is the stuff we want. Prefer grass fed meat, wild-caught fish. If vegan, DHA from algae is an outstanding option.
Tom says
Quinoa, it’s great bird food.

good times.

Ja, anyone who calls in asking about auto-immune thyroid disease should be told to give their grains to the birds. And all other gut-irritants for that matter. It’s such a shame that if you ask the average doctor or dietician they will say that there is nothing at all wrong with grains for those with hashimoto’s.
I gave my quinoa to the food bank. It is better than starving, that’s for sure.
