Investigative journalist Nina Teicholz reveals here that everything we thought we knew about dietary fat is wrong. She documents how the low-fat nutrition advice of the past sixty years has amounted to a vast uncontrolled experiment on the entire population, with disastrous consequences for our health. For decades, we have been told that the best possible diet involves cutting back on fat, especially saturated fat, and that if we are not getting healthier or thinner, we are not trying hard enough. But what if the low-fat diet is itself the problem? Based on a nine-year investigation, Teicholz shows how the misinformation about saturated fats took hold in the scientific community and the public imagination, and how recent findings have overturned these beliefs. --From publisher description.

Become up-to-date. Discard a cascade of footnotes based on 20th century cooking oil money paying for research to take to market... Nine years in the writing, 140 pages of footnotes, glossary, index, names, bibliography...Teicholz does not leave a single stone unturned. Brilliant, seminal, dogged, relentless...modern science can discard a 60 year old hunch for the pleasure of understanding that the fat you wear and the fat you eat are two different things. 480 pages read like the wind because Teicholz did all the footwork. Be renewed. Be undeceived. Oleo might be tar if butter is food.
