Is laughter the right response? Perhaps they have several decades of counter-evidence or question the soundness of the research done supporting the lipid hypothesis? I feel like curiosity is always appropriate.


> Perhaps they have several decades of counter-evidence

They don't. At best, they are armed with a few dozen recent, biased, cherry-picked publications with illogical conclusions, which I'm happy to pick apart if anyone can actually cite them.

The downvotes only affirm my point - people would rather be in denial than search, find and read the research for themselves, and admit they had been fooled.


I recommend you read The Fig Fat Surprise by Nina Teicholz. You will be quite surprised how completely wrong your view on the subject is.


the "Big" Fat Surprise


I don't know why you put Big in quotes. Elaborate on that please?


To contrast his typo above ("Fig [sic] Fat Surprise"), I think.


Likewise, except my recommendation for you is How Not to Die by Michael Greger, or just see http://nutritionfacts.org
