My wife is a dietitian, now retired. I remember her telling me all these things across the years, with the same updates, in the same order, and with the same increasing frustration. Indeed, I remember her using the exact SAME form of words..
"..turns out there are *two* forms of cholesterol."
I showed her this. For some reason she didn't think it was funny.

I like that he cares enough about this couple to keep going back over the years even as he ages. It's sweet

They skipped the: "Stop! DO NOT EAT AT ALL! Fasting lengthens your telomeres!!!" *throws the whole plate out the window*

Part of the trouble is that some of the popular media pick up tenuous study results from journals, and then greatly oversimplify/overstate the findings. The actual scientists rarely make the sweeping claims because they are aware of the limitations of their studies.

That’s why you shouldn’t buy a house with a time machine bathroom

[estycki]

I’m super impressed they found such a retro kitchen

exactly my experience as MD. When I studied at the university, eggs were a complete nogo. When I came to the hospital, eggs were ok a little bit but butter was pure poison. Then it was the bread, not the butter. Then veggie was the best you ever can do to your body. Then veggie with a little meat. Then suddenly red meat was the deadliest thing ever because of L-Carnitine. Then it depended on your micro-flora in your colon. Now it's genetics with micro-flora.

And this is why I don't give a crap about whatever "healthy trends". Eat moderately, prefer vegetables, remember to drink water and exercise. That's good enough for me. I'll have a goddamn hamburger or a bag of chips if I want. I just remember moderation in that as well.

Best health advice in the video was start your day by slappin dat booty

I love how the wife at the end was so nice to the time traveler - "Would you like some eggs"? She understands that the guy is just trying to help.

I'm a dietitian and this portrays the field of dietetics perfectly. Here's my best advice: eat foods that are closest to their whole Turns out whole form foods contain more bacteria, eat foods that are cleanly Turns out there is good and bad bacteria, eat the whole foods.

My dietician girlfriend asks: "When was this video made? Some of that information is out of date..."

[timbuktu]

I love how she's about to throw out the steak and he holds up a for it..."

[elmobolan]

NEWS FLASH-"We're all gonna die", enjoy everything, within reason, while u can...

[diedriegibbs]

This was HILARIOUS. OMG. The look on the husband's face was and is priceless.

[ev]

I love how this cruises thru every health "belief" for the past 20 years.

Also, just wondering how many home Time Traveling Dietician goes to to save mankind in an average day?
