The Kevin Bass Show


China’s dietary and health trends. Or, how hundreds of millions of people are being fattened by fat. And being made one of the most diabetic countries in the world.

June 22, 2022

In this episode, I analyze 12 figures to show that the Chinese obesity epidemic is largely attributable to increases in dietary fat, specifically from pork. I follow this up by commenting on the work of Barry Popkin, suggesting that the Chinese dietary changes are part of a broader, nearly universal trend known as the nutrition transition.
