? Many demonstrably effective medical interventions were based originally on nonsense. The point is what the evidence is ~now~, and as far as the dietary guidelines go I cannot find fault with the evidence behind them gathered in 2013https://twitter.com/WeDietitians/status/1036775894453342208 …

Disagreeing with a single guideline here and there is obviously fair, but throwing out a vast document with large bodies of research underlying it because you disagree is a bit silly

I did read your blog on the subject, and found it to be, at heart, a disagreement with the evidence-base for a single recommendation from a document hundreds of pages long Not exactly a fair critique in my opinion

You might be mixing my blog with another - https://ecodietitians.com.au/2017/11/23/bringing-in-the-guidelines-the-story-so-far/ … Mine says: started with a group of well-meaning statements, the evidence came second - but the evidence (the research questions) were based on those GL....so that's the first thing: evidence-self-perpetuating

Indeed. You critique the evidence-base for a single guideline - saturated fat - and argue that this applies equally to the entire body of evidence. While it may be a valid critique for that guideline, it's hardly fair to make such a statement of the document as a whole

Wait...I'd not mentioned saturated fat. Nor set out a single guideline. Although the "saturated fat" argument we'd likely also disagree on. I just don't want you to misrepresent my point here in this thread.
