I second this. Nutritional epidemiology is a crime against science and is responsible for countless deaths and billions in lost productivity, unnecessary medical treatment. Fight against nutritional epidemiology for the good of society.

Wow. Links to supporting documents?

I didn’t get my opinion from a paper. I got it from reading countless papers. Figure it out for yourself
So no evidence. Got it.
There are mountains of evidence. It gets overlooked because of the momentum of dogma and the entangling of politics, dogma and research grants/funding. And it’s spread out over many, many individual topics and issues. It doesn’t lend itself to a comment or a single literature review.

I will explain exactly how you can see for yourself. You only have to do one thing. Simply try to understand for yourself the biological underpinnings of human disease. Try to understand it for yourself. This will involve cracking open a biochemistry textbook. It’s not a trivial matter.

It started for me when I got to a certain age and said to myself, gee, I’m getting to the age where I should understand heart disease. So I googled heart disease. And I kept going down the rabbit hole. Luckily I already had a background in biology and chemistry. Believe it or not, that single decision ultimately unraveled into the opinion expressed in my original comment.

I am looking forward to what you find. Happy trails.
