>>Huh? Mounds of data out there- all things in moderation, low fat, rich in fiber etc but that's beside the point. If doctors should somehow meet your standard of knowledge with respect to diet, should eating habits become law? Should we build a database of those who abuse food and install facial recognition software at every fast food joint?<<

you description of diet is too vague to be able to comment. i don't know what you mean by "low fat." i eat fat every time i eat - about 12g of fat, in fact.

so does manuel uribe and he's lost 500 lbs in three years.

do you consider 50-60g of fat a day to be "low fat?"

many lean athletes eat two or three times that much and are in outstanding health (crossfitters, in particular).

heart healthy fat is not the villain.

the spanish diet that reduced diabetes by 83% - the one your doctor knows nothing about - was moderate in extra virgin olive oil - almost pure fat.

talking about making diet as a law is absurd. even if it wasn't, they need to understand what makes up a good diet - and, in general, they don't.

if you want to outline the specifics of what you doctor said is a good diet, i'd be happy to comment on whether i think he's right or not and why.
