“I scooped cholesterol out of blocked arteries. 20% of every blockage in a heart is cholesterol. It's a fact that was discovered in 1910.”

Kahn claims it is an established fact, discovered in 1910, that cholesterol makes up exactly 20% of every arterial blockage he has surgically removed.

“He put half of them on a low animal diet with very high plants, let half of them eat like Los Angeles people. Eight years later, 50% on the high plant, low fat…”

Kahn claims Dr. Lester Morrison's 1948 Los Angeles study of 100 heart patients found 50% survival at eight years on a low-animal, high-plant diet versus 0% survival on a standard diet, as evidence the diet reverses heart disease.

“That's still 50,000 to 60,000 people a year that get colon cancer if that data's right. They wouldn't get colon cancer if they just would stop eating hot dogs.”

Kahn claims that, based on WHO processed-meat risk data, 50,000 to 60,000 people a year get colon cancer specifically because they eat hot dogs/processed meat.

“1997, Clark, 395 randomized clinical trials, what Chris is looking for. In metabolic ward, say, you jack up the saturated fat in your diet, you jack up your ch…”

Kahn asserts a 1997 paper by 'Clark' reviewed 395 randomized controlled metabolic-ward trials showing saturated fat intake raises cholesterol, a citation his co-guest immediately says he cannot verify.
