By Dr. Alfred GraniteDr. Granite's newsletter examines why the U.S., despite its wealth and medical advancements, has a lower life expectancy than other educated wealthy nations. It attributes this issue to poor dietary habits shaped by a "melting pot" culinary culture heavily influenced by the processed food industry. Key contributors to this problem include added sugars, refined carbohydrates, trans fats, and seed oils, which drive metabolic dysfunction contributing to Metabolic Syndrome.The newsletter promotes solutions such as adopting nutrient-dense, whole food-based diets, including the Mediterranean diet, and exploring low-carbohydrate or carnivore approaches. Practical guidance is provided through food lists, tips for avoiding hidden sugars, healthy drink alternatives, and nutritional tracking tools. The emphasis is on gradual, sustainable dietary changes to enhance metabolic health and overall well-being.https://the-human-condition.beehiiv.com/p/the-diet-we-evolved-to-eat-c9fc
