(The excerpts below, along with the title, were copied as-is from the source article. I've not read the book, but it looks like potentially good information.)

Nina Teicholz's 2014 book The Big Fat Surprise: Why Butter, Meat & Cheese Belong in a Healthy Diet is a bestseller that continues to get kudos for its meticulous research, engaging writing and iconoclastic takedown of the 60-year war against dietary fat.



"A 2003 piece on trans fats for Gourmet was a blockbuster, gaining wide circulation and garnering her a six-figure advance for a book on trans fats.

Looking back, Nina is very grateful that she spent the first three years of her research "entering in through the trans fat door, getting to know all about the vegetable oil industry." Industry executives were very open to her. "I had wide open access because at that point, I was just learning. I asked for people's time and they gave it. No battle lines had yet been drawn."

This research gave her an unique understanding about the power of the vegetable oil industry and how it had manipulated nutrition science--in particular, the "diet-heart hypothesis," which holds that saturated fat causes heart disease. She even learned that Proctor & Gamble, the makers of Crisco Oil (a hardened oil with trans fats), helped raise millions of dollars which enabled the American Heart Association to go from a small volunteer organization to a national powerhouse.

"I got to understand the magnitude of the vegetable oil industry and how important the demonization of saturated fat was to them. How much they had influenced the science, funded the science. How powerful they were," said Nina.

I would get off the phone and be shaking, like, I am investigating the underworld?..."

..."Her book and its resulting influence on the heated debate around nutrition has led her to be a target for critics, some who have attacked her personally with vicious name-calling and angry statements.

"What Nina Teicholz has done and continues to do is very brave and very important. The resistance she has faced and the personal attacks have truly been remarkable," says Dr. Andreas Eenfeldt, founder of Diet Doctor. "For example, a high-profile MD affiliated with Yale called her "shockingly unprofessional", "an animal" and more in a Guardian article. But he failed to provide any examples of this unprofessional behavior, despite several requests from the journalist. I think many experts have been living comfortably in dogma for decades. When they get intellectually challenged by a woman, a journalist, and they fail to find any good arguments, some of them just lose it, and lash out at her. The truth is often inconvenient and uncomfortable."

The personal attacks have been difficult, says Nina. "On the one hand, the attacks are painful and hurtful, but at the same time, you know that if they are attacking you personally it is because they cannot attack you substantively. One has to stay above the fray and not stoop down to their level of name-calling. Their level is so low, it's embarrassing - and it certainly doesn't help the scientific discussion."

Since 2004, she herself has embraced the low carb, high-fat diet. Now she relishes juicy steaks, plenty of cheese, and lots of butter -- and feels at her healthiest, and effortlessly at the thinnest, of her entire life.

"Everyone who switches to this diet just marvels at how delicious all this food is that has previously been forbidden. It is an incredible liberation to not be counting calories and to live in a way where food is no longer your enemy. I really would have appreciated knowing all of this when I was a young woman when I always wanted to be thin and 10 pounds lighter." ... - source

Great info.

Personally, I’m more of a balanced diet kind of lady. But avoiding added sugar & processed food is something I keep in mind when meal planning.

And healthy fats are good to include (avocado, peanut butter, etc.).

Cooking from scratch at home is the key....eating out is always more unhealthy, at least in the States.

My family & I have never had a weight problem.

healthy fats: coconut, organic extra virgin OO; fat from organic raw milk and cheese from grass fed cows. you dont want that glyphosphate accumulation going into your system, nor do you want cows fed soy or other garbage (believe me, theyll eat it if its in front of them).

peanut butter is not really good for you. its a legume, not a nut, and it can contain a lot of aflatoxin. if you want to eat it, its been said* that you should make it fresh and then let it separate. drain off the oil and then add EVOO. most nut butters in stores are rancid, believe it or not. the best ones are kept in the fridge after being ground.

That looks suspiciously close to the Atkins diet.

We should limit our intake of dairy products because they make the body more acidic. An acid environment leads to the proliferation of bacterias and diseases such as cancer. They are also full of dioxins.

This is not actually true. The foods we eat do not make the body more acidic or alkaline. Our bodies have pretty intricate systems for regulating and buffering systemic pH. If dairy makes your body more acidic, you have severe kidney problems. Foods can influence the pH of the urine, but this does not translate to systemic pH at all. Systemic pH is always maintained between about 7.35 and 7.45, and if it goes outside of this range, you die.

Dioxins should not be a problem if you're getting quality organic dairy from pasture-raised animals. Raw is better than pasteurized.

By body I meant mostly blood pH. Acidic foods make the blood pH go down. They also increase the chances of getting cancers.

Organic dairy is not available everywhere, but it should be. Same for organic meat.

Isn't all meat organic though? Or is this some new edition of organic that I'm missing out on.
Organic meat, poultry, eggs and dairy products come from animals that are given no antibiotics or growth hormones. Organic food is produced without using most conventional pesticides; fertilizers made with synthetic ingredients or sewage sludge; bioengineering; or ionizing radiation

Organic is a bad word to use for it though.
