[QUOTE="Oldvatr, post: 2066359, member: 196898"] At least they are honest and admit it is the Eat Lancet diet they are following for the planet according to this review [URL]https://www.chatelaine.com/health/canadas-new-food-guide/[/URL] I like this section of the spiel for the nutritionists [SIZE=4][B]Some fad diets can be restrictive and pose nutritional risks. [/B][/SIZE] [I]Canadians are exposed to the promotion of diets that are often commercially driven and promise a quick fix for weight loss or the management of a chronic disease. These diets are often referred to as ‘fad diets’. Sometimes these diets evolve from a medically indicated eating plan, and other times they are based on anecdotal observations and have little or no scientific basis. These diets are often used to promote or sell dietary products such as pre-portioned meals and cook books.
