It seems you want science. Sorry, the world seems to want headlines and diet fad debate.

We do desperately need actual research. I think the obesity crisis is far worse than most anyone realizes. I can think of a dozen reasons for people to actively ignore it.

Yeah, it bugs me deeply that this passes as science (and other such "research"). I realize it's difficult to conduct meaningful science in this area, given how different the biochemistry of every person is, but it's something I believe we can do. Given how important our health is, it's something I feel we really need to do.
