"In 1972, a British scientist sounded the alarm that sugar – and not fat
– was the greatest danger to our health. But his findings were ridiculed
and his reputation ruined. How did the world’s top nutrition scientists
get it so wrong for so long?"

The politics of science is one of its great weaknesses.

Via John O'Driscoll and Sue T.
