Right now I don't have time to study the whole article carefully but I see some misleading information and some good information. For one thing, a lot of people, during the 60s, 70s, and 80s never followed any such low fat diet. It was a certain percentage of the population but I lived through those years and never heard anyone recommend it.

Other than myself, no one I knew took the low fat diet seriously. Yes, I did take it seriously and cut down on fat. But at the same time I did eat lean meat that did contain some fat. So, was I in danger of eating too many starchy carbs and gaining weight? No! My BMI at the time was about 19.
