Fat v Carbs with Jamie Owen BBC 2016

Has anyone else have seen this fascinating LCHF documentary? I found this gem on youtube (type the title of this thread on the youtube search to get to it) and it was a fairly balanced doco with its fair share of naysayers waffling on about the "dangers of eating fat". I loved the part where Jeremy Owen challenged a dietician who said it won't work 'on the long term' with "the current guidelines for 'healthy' eating isn't working either". Towards the end, a rather sceptical GP measured his weight (lost 1 stone) and informed him that his blood lipids were better than the previous test and was 'surprised' by the results (more disappointed I think) Documentaries like this highlights the faults of the current dogma of low fat-low calorie diets and sooner or later governments will be forced to review their 'health guideline' and maybe some might even admit that they were wrong

Thanks for that info! Living 'down under', I don't have direct access to the BBC but that was a great show, nonetheless. I get all the informative doco's through youtube and have a great collection about LCHF and statins v cholesterol etc. Did you see the ABC Catalyst show about statins?
