National healthy eating guidelines just don't cut the mustard …

Dr John Briffa has done another fine job of dissecting some more “spin”, this time based on one of the biggest dietary intervention trials carried out so far – the Women’s Health Initiative Dietary Modification Randomized Controlled Trial (WHI trial), which was started in 1993, used almost 50,000 post-menopausal women and followed each of these women’s diets for an average of about 8 years.

The results speak for themselves: national healthy eating guidelines just aren’t keeping the nation healthy.  Do take a couple of minutes out of your day to read more about Dr Briffa’s take on this study … it makes for very interesting reading!
