[QUOTE="bulkbiker, post: 1861372, member: 219467"] "We studied 15 428 adults aged 45–64 years, in four US communities" From the piece in "The Lancet" which of course is itself a report on the study carried out in the US (not by the Lancet). The study based on two food questionaires in the 80' and 90's and then extrapolated for 25 years assumes that people's badly remembered eating habits remained the same over those 25 years and that a "Low Carb" diet consisted of 37% of energy being from carbohydrate... need I go on? The graph that was produced from the information gathered was then extrapolated itself far beyond any evidence that was discovered so becomes pure speculation. So we have Food Questionaires, Dodgy diets, no suppporting evidence and zero "proof" whatsoever but we are supposed to abandon a way of eating that has proven successful for so many of us because of the biased study from some Whole Food Plant Based evangelists at Harvard? Hmmmmm [/QUOTE]
