Episode #198: How Food Rules Gag Your Doctor & The New Diet Lie Detector: MAHA MANIA (Part 2)

Your doctor may want to prescribe you meat, butter, or broccoli instead of meds—but federal dietary rules can make that illegal, muzzling practitioners who stray outside the carb-heavy playbook.

In MAHA Mania — Part 2 we expose how those same rules now drive a crusade against “ultraprocessed foods,” rallying researchers, MDs, and even a former FDA chief to demand a second food-guide pyramid.

We also unpack the flashy new biomarker billed as a dietary lie detector and ask whether this latest bout of reductionism will warp politics and reshape what lands on your plate.

We want to hear from you!

This week’s Community Question is:

Have you ever cut anything out of your diet or made a change in your diet?  If so, what di you find out about yourself and that food?
