We Got Sicker Following Their Advice: The 1977 Guidelines Disaster

Описание: In 1977, the U.S. government told Americans to stop eating saturated fat. It was based on almost no evidence. Fifty years later, we're fatter and sicker than ever.

But here's what they don't want you to know: They spent $700 MILLION dollars on the largest nutrition study in history to prove they were right. And on page 661, buried in a wall of text almost nobody read, was a finding so damning it should have ended the war on saturated fat immediately.

The Women's Health Initiative studied 49,000 women for 8 years. The low-fat diet didn't prevent heart disease. But for women who already had heart disease? The low-fat diet increased their risk by 26%.

And the dietary guidelines barely changed.
