FDA Commissioner Dr. Marty Makary says the FDA has intentionally been lying to us for 16 years about fat being bad for you He says this allowed Big Pharma to sell more drugs “They suppressed the data for 16 years. Two other large studies failed to show an association. Finally, the study trickled out in the medical literature. Nobody noticed it. Those in the low-fat group had higher rates of heart attacks. Why? Maybe because when you avoid fat, you have to pound food with carbohydrates and often ultra-processed carbohydrates stripped of fiber and chopped up at functions like sugar. We created a generation of children with low protein, high carbohydrates, sugar addiction, and burdened with ultra-processed foods, and what did we do as a medical field? Drugged them at scale. Those days are over. We are telling people the truth about food.”
