BAD ADVICE: the Low Fat Diet
Low fat (especially low saturated fat), high grain diets used to be recommended for health and weight loss although it seems they are not useful for either. Instead, a reduction of refined sugars , grains and other simple carbohydrates (a "low GI" diet seems best) and less Omega-6 fats appears to be a better direction. Saturated fats from meat, from dairy, and from tropical oils like coconut oil were once thought of as being harmful to health, and even responsible for heart disease itself. But in every society that reduced its traditional saturated fats and increased consumption of newer vegetable oils, heart disease increased.
"Mainstream dietary recommendations [often from the medical affiliates of the farm, chemical or drug industry] are wrong to the point of being responsible for causing disease rather than preventing it".
