Dr. Ron Najafi debates whether calories matter for diet. One speaker argues sugar grams and redox potential are better measures, while the other notes the food industry pushed calorie counting to influence what people eat.
Calorie that you eat is not quite the calorie. Isn't that where you talked about almonds? Right, yeah.
Oh, yeah, I've talked about it many times. I talked about it this morning.
It's an amazing story. And nowadays every restaurant has like 480 calories. Yeah.
It doesn't matter. Calories are irrelevant.
That's what I'm saying. Suddenly we're making choices based on that number.
I'm trying to kill the calories. You know, that's. That, to me, that, that's. That's when I know I will have been effective. When we lose the calorie as a unit of measure in this, in this story, what, in your opinion is the measure, then? Well, grams of sugar would be a better start, but ultimately, I think it's going to be redox potential.
Yep.
But most people are not. And there are, you know. Well, I know we've got a long way to go.
Long way. I mean, these are areas.
But the thing, even if you got. Well, who educated people on calories? The food industry.
