Pack Your Bags for 'Biohacking Island'! Feat. Zora Benhamou and Nichola Conlon #491

Welcome back to Biohacking News for a special edition. Today, we're dissecting a topic that sits at the core of many biohacking discussions: the true impact of vegetable oils on our health. For seasoned biohackers and those new to the biohacking community, this is a really important issue. We’ll explore the historical events that led to the prevalence of these oils and equip you with biohacker-approved strategies to purge them from your diet. Tune in as we empower our biohacking community with knowledge and tools to reclaim control over what goes into our bodies. My guest for today is Dr. Cate Shanahan, a New York Times bestselling author. Her new book, "DARK CALORIES: How Vegetable Oils Destroy Our Health and How We Get It Back," came out two days ago, and you may have unwittingly been eating what she calls 'the hateful eight' vegetable oils (I was). Visit Dr. Cate Shanahan's website to learn more.
