When Your Heart Stops You in Your Tracks

One spring evening, a seemingly healthy man in his early 40s went for his usual run-and his heart decided it had had enough. After weeks of strange heart palpitations he'd been ignoring, an invisible force gripped his chest like a steel fist, forcing him to stop mid-stride. Here's the truly shocking part: despite this terrifying warning, he did nothing. Why? Because he'd spent his entire life eating whatever he wanted-chocolate for breakfast, chips for dinner-without consequence. He was one of those infuriatingly "fat-resistant" people we all know. But becoming a new father changed everything. That health crisis launched journalist Bas Kast on a years-long research odyssey through thousands of nutrition studies, ultimately producing The Diet Compass, a #1 bestseller across Europe translated into 25 languages. What he discovered challenges nearly everything we've been told about healthy eating, particularly our decades-long fear of fat. Ironically, the widespread fatphobia since the 1980s may have actually fueled our obesity epidemic, as people replaced natural fats with rapidly digested carbohydrates that left them perpetually hungry.
