Well, first of all, there is a mountain of evidence to support the validity of Noakes' advice to the breastfeeding mother, as the above graphic shows quite concisely. The evidence that Julsing-Strydom claims doesn't exist (except that it does). That alone shows that she was either lying or was simply ignorant of the nature and weight of this evidence. Either way, she is in my view abysmally lacking in any credibilty as a health care professional. Secondly, her view that the public "lacks information" is both condescending and delusional. Laypersons can and do become well-versed in how the scientific method works, and can assess what type of evidence best determines answers to scientific inquiries. Thanks to information technology (which, albeit, is a double-edged sword), we can more clearly see the gap between what the evidence actually says, and what "The Anointed" (as Tom Naughton calls them) claim it says. And with the guidance of real experts like Dr. Eenfeldt, Dr. Fung, et al (i.e. those who don't fall into the argument-from-authority trap), we are empowered to make truly informed desicions about our health and ignore the Claire Julsing-Strydoms of this world.
Perhaps I am being too harsh, but it makes me angry that, using the weight and authority of an official body behind her, she - with no justification whatsoever - not only put Prof. Noakes and his family through what must have been hell, but also attempted to officially silence truly evidence-based, beneficial nutrition advice that has, for example, helped people recover from type 2 diabetes and fatty liver; this is the precise opposite of giving people sound advice about nutrition. And for what? Perhaps because she and the organization she represents do not like having their perceived monopoly on nutrition advice challenged? In any case, such so-called experts are part of the problem, and deserve nothing but our contempt.
