# Event Details - **Event Name**: Mt.Hamilton Society - Greg Rehmke: "The Flipped Food Pyramid..." - **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 29 Jan, 2026 at 11:30 am – Thu, 29 Jan, 2026 at 01:30 pm - **Event Description**: Greg Rehmke explores the government's recent food pyramid flip and their policies & powers causing unhealthy food habits and choices.About this EventThe history of healthy food mixes traditions with innovations, fads, fashions, advertising and religion. Since the 1980s the Federal Government’s food pyramid and plate told Americans to consume less fat and more carbohydrates. But now the Food Pyramid has been partly flipped, and the 2025-30 Dietary Guidelines say Americans should eat more meat, whole milk, butter, fish, and eggs (but still, not more that 10% saturated fat).The modern push to reduce cattle and red meat is led by nutritionists, vegetarians, climate change campaigners, and animal rights advocates. Cattle ranching turns out to be key for soil health and fast-expanding regenerative ranching and agriculture. For our personal health, our gut microbiome plays a key role. Regenerative ranching enterprises are discovering ways to raise profits with “multi-paddock grazing” that builds deep roots for microbes, and cooler, richer soils.

Luke Perkocha, MD, MBA**********About the Mont Hamilton Society - In 1947 Friedrich Hayek, an economist and social philosopher who later won the Nobel Prize, organized a meeting at Mt. Pelerin, a resort in Switzerland. Hayek convened a modest sized group of (39) economists, historians, philosophers and journalists for the purpose of supporting research and discussion on the role of markets vs. government. The Mont Pelerin Society is now a large and prestigious international organization.In 2009, a group of friends began to meet in San Jose for the purposes of improving their understanding of economic theory, applying it to current events and sharing their understanding with others as well as promoting a joyous sense of camaraderie. In recognition of the example set by the Mont Pelerin Society, they decided to name their group the Mont Hamilton Society. Members understand the realities of the business world, share an interest in economic thinking, and value civil discourse from a variety of perspectives. Faculty and students from the Department of Economics at San Jose State University are frequent guests at Society meetings. In June 2017 the Mont Hamilton Society became the San Jose affiliate chapter of the Bastiat Society, an AIER.org project, hence our name from then till late last year was: Mont Hamilton/Bastiat Society. However AIER decided late in 2024 to discontinue the Bastiat Society program, so we are reverting to our original name: The Mont Hamilton Society and continuing on our own.There are no membership fees or organizational meetings at this time, but all interested are encouraged to join and participate.If you would like to be on our invitations list, or know someone else who might like to receive notice of our 7 - 10 luncheon or other events per year, or if you have any questions, please send an email to:MtHamiltonSoc@Outlook.comYou or your suggested contact(s) will receive an announcement/invitation and a reminder or two for each event as they are scheduled, or a prompt answer to your question/s.These events are discussions, not standard lectures.
