(24:33) We consume calories for many reasons, hunger being just one of them. Likewise, satiety is just one of many reasons we stop eating. (34:40) As a rule of thumb, eat a diet of omnivorous whole foods that are lower in calorie density. (49:56) Fiber is not an essential nutrient. (58:35) Nutrient-to-energy is important to health, but once you have adequate intake, there's not much benefit in taking in more. (1:04:46) Most people in the US are more susceptible to obesity than others. Whether or not they actually become obese comes down to the environment they choose. (1:15:31) Blood pressure, on a genetic level, doesn't typically change as one gets older.

Now let's shoot for optimal. (21:22) Processed foods disrupt our appetite and satiety hormones, prompting us to overeat. (33:02) Injuries are a sign of overdoing it. (40:56) Homo sapiens are built for near-constant everyday movement. (47:38) Always ask "what's optimal" instead of just "what's possible". (59:54) Raw forms of high-toxin natural plant foods is a potentially problematic category of nutrition. (1:08:26) Our main nutritional challenge is energy toxicity.

(22:56) Whether or not you develop type 2 diabetes does depend on genetics, but a huge, often-overlooked factor is how your diet looks. (25:51) To Tucker, Waldorf is the ideal homeschooling curriculum for its heavy emphasis on student-led education. (40:15) "The only reason hospitals aren't cesspools of death is because nurses keep it together." (44:37) True sovereignty over your family's livelihood comes down to owning your own sources of food, water, and power. (50:08) Don't be an oldschool doomsday prepper. Control your inputs. (53:43) Taking responsibility for your livelihood—for your food, water, and power, education, and health—creates a sense of urgency in your life. (1:00:35) The COVID-19 crisis taught Tucker to ask himself the two-part question: "What do I believe and why do I believe it?" (1:11:25) Creating your own society starts with the actions you take.

Chris Knobbe, MD, is a physician, researcher, ophthalmologist, public health advocate, and Associate Clinical Professor Emeritus, formerly of the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas, Texas. Dr. Knobbe is known primarily for his research, publications, and presentations connecting Westernized diets and highly polyunsaturated vegetable oils to numerous chronic diseases, including coronary heart disease, hypertension, stroke, cancers, type 2 diabetes, metabolic syndrome, obesity, Alzheimer's disease, autoimmune diseases, and age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Dr. Knobbe's research has focused greatly on the "vegetable oil hypothesis" as the primary driver of overweight and chronic disease. In 2016, Knobbe formally introduced the hypothesis that processed foods and vegetable oils are the primary drivers of AMD, which is the leading cause of irreversible vision loss and blindness in people over the age of 50, worldwide.
