Are seed oils or beef tallow the healthier option? The debate is raging over which is the best.

 

Doctor Roxie Becker reveals what the research actually shows as she responds to viewer questions and comments with Chuck Carroll on The Exam Room Podcast.

 

The results may surprise you as restaurants are changing to beef tallow and proclaiming it to be the less inflammatory option. However, the findings suggest that idea is misguided.

 

Dr. Becker and Chuck also address the significance of scientific research in nutrition, advocating for evidence-based discussions rather than relying on myths.
