Maybe we can look for a study that proves that a diet high in saturated fats, trans-fats, etc. is healthy... |
The big difference is what we are told by the media, food industry and health experts... what are the guidelines that you use as a Registered Dietitian? I am making an educated assumption but I understand that they are predicated on theories such as high-fat causing CVD, high-protein causing renal damage etc... as you have said here yourself. From my reading I do not believe that those theories are correct, so I have asked you to "put your money where your mouth is" and provide some proof of the same guidelines to which many/most of us here have been subjected to at some time or other. Would you just take the word of the car-salesman that the car was safe or would you do some further research.
