are seeing some good changes. It’s about time! They ruined a generation…
Taubes and others looked at the actual science, rather than the “consensus” science, and discovered that the actual science was actually saying the opposite of the consensus. The food pyramid as pushed by the FDA and the Department of Agriculture was not just wrong. It was actively harmful, and the best diet for at least obese people or people with Type 2 Diabetes was a high-protein, high-fat, low-carb diet, with only whole grains, and with few highly processed foods.
… Summarized, it’s really pretty simple: if your great-grandfather would have eaten it, the new food pyramid says go ahead.
I’ve been saying this for 20 years now! All I can say is that as a young man, I was very unwise to listen to the government on this. What a fool I was!
