Bacon? Eggs? Cream? That sizzling fat on the edge of a barbecued steak? Actually good for you? And you can maintain your weight or actually take weight off? Convincing, frank and down-to-earth, this book may change your life.In this fascinating expos? of accepted dietary recommendations written for the intelligent layman, Dr Tannis Laidlaw explores which 'science' we should be ignoring. As Gary Taubes (Good Calories, Bad Calories or Diet Delusion) says, the nutritional science of the past half century or so - the science that has received the most publicity that is, the science which has influenced officialdom's decisions - has serious flaws. The good science has been passed over, discounted or overlooked with the result that both normal people and those with diabetes, heart disease or other disorders are urged by the establishment to change their diets to include more of the very dietary items that good science advises may be injurious.
