[QUOTE="Daibell, post: 977438, member: 21149"] Being older rather than younger I can remember post war food but I can also remember no central heating, no family car so walking everywhere in the freezing cold. We therefore lost a lot of calories thru body heat loss. These days our daily calorie needs I suspect for most are possibly half the 'recommended' daily input. The food industry lobby works hard in the background and we can see this happening with the current sugar discussions; refined carbs are next on the list. Many of the establishment bodies follow the 'Group-think' principle and no one wants to be out of line. Many university research departments are at least part funded by big pharma and the food industry and I can see the research bias coming out in some of the reports. [/QUOTE]
