I would say that diets containing, well, theoretically, 8-9% fat is enough ... Of course, we go higher that, as we know. We're far, far higher. And a lot of it comes from animal foods, but actually the majority of that now, as you know well, is coming from added oils.

Nature had it that we should keep a balance of omega-6 to omega-3; it should be around 2 to 1, 3 to 1, maybe 4 to 1, something like that ... But in fact, we're like 20 times that. So, we're consuming, really, a very pro-inflammatory diet, largely comprised of added oils.

It's abundantly clear to me, even more now than ever, that when we eat food, we're eating countless nutrients and nutrient-like substances ... They're not operating independently ... They work together in an integrated fashion for the most part.

The average rural Chinese person is eating about 15% of their calories from fat, and Americans are at like 37%.

There are virtually no nutrients in animal-based foods that are not better provided by plants.
