Much of what we’ve been told about healthy eating is wrong – and we should probably be eating more fat. This according to a new report from a UK health charity. Quite likely they are right.
The report resulted in lots of massive headlines in the UK today:

If I have to listen to Susan Jebb lecturing on 'portion control' one more time, I swear I'll spontaneously combust!
What did you eat BEFORE you were diagnosed with diabetes?
Do you check your post-prandial blood sugars 1 and 2 hours after you start eating those "healthy" whole grains?
Since you came to this website, be sure you read this: http://www.dietdoctor.com/diabetes#normal
I'm starting to formulate the idea that this whole fiasco on obesity and diabetes, caused by increased consumption of grains and sugar, was really brought on by idiot animal welfare groups...who lie and cheat, giving misleading data (as the billboard in your link) just to divert people from eating animal based foods.
The margin of profit on junk food is much bigger than on healthy products.
The anointed want the best quality for themselves while the masses while be fed like cows in CAFO site.
That is why your regulary see papers on vegetalism and papers about insect consumtion instead of meat.
Grains are an internationally traded commodity, our supermarket shelves are stuffed with grains, sugar and processed foods. If 70% of the population ate lchf most of the time, farms, supply chains, big businesses would have to change enormously. There would be so much money lost by big players that I can't see the government ever backing it.
In a supermarket I, like so many of us here, walk past 80% of the isles without even considering them. Imagine if the value of all these goods, shelf space and shelf stackers if half the population shopped like us?
This is a vegetarian myth, you should read the book of Lierre Keith.
