“The public health establishment has been wrong before. The best advice that government can give citizens is to develop their own diet and exercise plans.” Read it at the L.A. Times. “More and more, the history of dietary guidelines brings to mind the Woody Allen comedy ‘Sleeper,’ in which the main character, awaking from a centuries-long slumber, learns that every food we once thought bad for us is actually good, starting with steak and chocolate.
