Jill’s father’s attitude may stem from his belief that it is his daughter’s weakness that led to her successive failures, when it may be the methodology used by her various attempts that is to blame. In other words, blame the patient, not the treatment. Unfortunately this fallacy is common.
At 6:53, we can see the psychological struggle that most overweight people have with those around them. It is a bit derogatory the way Jill Cook’s father, Robert, speaks to her. Although he is supportive and concerned, his attitude makes it tougher for her to attempt, yet again, a change in her life. He is probably a bit frustrated with her, and her seeming inability to change.
At 12:00, regarding the addictive nature of certain “nutrients”, particularly sugar and salt, you may wish to read former FDA Commissioner’s book, The End of Overeating: Taking Control of the Insatiable American Appetite.
It was interesting to see the blood pressure of the participants drop, even though they were using salt and salty foods such as bacon. Carbohydrates tend to cause water retention through the storage of glycogen, among possibly other mechanisms. Perhaps this is part of the mechanism, as well as reduced arterial inflammation due to the high Omega 3 content of the participants' diet.
Anecdotally, it is interesting to note that, from 3:29 to approx 3:45, nutrient density of the food consumption is increasing. Although saturated fat consumption rose, the amount of vegetables (nutrient dense and caloric and carb poor) increased dramatically.
