Ivor’s background is chemical engineering, but three years ago, unsatisfied with answers he was getting from his physician about heart disease risk, he dedicated himself to researching nutrition. Now he has a popular podcast and YouTube channel where he applies his own brand of meticulous root cause and statistical analysis to questions about diet, diseases of civilization (e.g. diabetes and heart disease), as well as the public health response to the recent novel coronavirus. We discuss how he ended up as “the Fat Emperor” and why the orthodox of nutritional science has blindspots and biases that have led to continually worsening health globally.
