1. The History Behind the "Lipid Hypothesis" that start in Russian in the early 20th Century that lead to the discovery of HDL (good cholesterol) and LDL (bad cholesterol) and eventually statin medication.
2. The Diet-Heart Hypothesis and the "6 and 7 Countries Studies" that lead to the 1980 "Guidelines for Americans", which lowers fat intake and increase carbohydrate intake. Since that time, we see a tremendous rise in obesity, nonalcoholic fatty liver, and type 2 diabetes.
