Really interesting, loved the post by the retired pathologist!
Haslam denied that NOF board members were left unaware before publication of the findings of the report, which was called Eat Fat, Cut The Carbs and Avoid Snacking To Reverse Obesity and Type 2 Diabetes. “Other members were fully appraised of the direction of the report, and discussed it via email, but the urgency of publication meant that no specific comments could be used prior to its release,” he said.
Selective reporting then! What's new!Thanks for alerting us - I see the NOF is getting "blame" for the furore but I note this:
The Public Health Collaboration ( www.phcuk.org ) published their comprehensive & fully referenced report that day - & several of their board shared the publicity. It is dishonest to focus on the NOF. Dr Malhotra is on both bodies.
Luckily we are all individuals with a huge variant on diet.
I believe we need more dieticians giving individual support to change to the right diet for the individual. Not the masses, as guidelines is all they can ever be.
Everyone is different!!!!!

Agree,.. the article itself is the usual ******** .. but the comments below showed a huge bias towards LCHF..It's obviously good news that a debate is taking place but I'm not sure that I find this particular extract encouraging in any way.......
"The emails show that a number of renowned authorities on obesity and medical organisations plan to review their links with the NOF because it was “inexcusable to confuse the public with incorrect science”. Concerns are so great that it may be expelled from the Obesity Health Alliance, a coalition of 30 health organisations that is urging ministers to take tough action to tackle the growing epidemic of obesity."
Looking at the amount of people posting on the success stories then I would say yes.. although of course they will be self selecting as people for whom it doesn't work won't post there.. Would agree completely that in my case it has changed my life for the better though.Do most people find LCHF works for them? Also is it different for type 1 and 2? I'm obvs still a newbie and have been criticised for saying how excellent the diet works (I must remember although good for me maybe it doesn't work for others?)

I'm finding my interpretation of lchf is just a small change in my old diet.Do most people find LCHF works for them? Also is it different for type 1 and 2? I'm obvs still a newbie and have been criticised for saying how excellent the diet works (I must remember although good for me maybe it doesn't work for others?)
