Before 1850: all milk was raw, drunk by the gallon, and considered medicine.
Before 1900: everyone ate eggs, beef, and butter without a single thought about cholesterol.
Before 1910: every household used salt to preserve meat and fish through the winter.
Before 1920: everything was cooked in tallow, lard, dripping, and butter.
Before 1950: there was no obesity epidemic, no diabetes epidemic, no childhood ADHD diagnosis on every street.
Now consider the timeline.
The seed oils arrived. The margarine arrived. The breakfast cereal arrived. The low-fat yoghurts arrived. The packaged convenience food arrived. The supermarket aisles filled up with products that had no equivalent on a 1900 dinner table.
And the experts are still trying to convince you that chronic disease is caused by the foods that fed humanity for the entire stretch of recorded history.
Not the new arrivals. The old reliables.
Have a think about who benefits from that conclusion.
