∙ 9y agoDifficult to know. So many supposed food "scientists" have started out to prove what they already believed to be true, and have managed to manipulate their research into "proving" their starting assumptions. But other scientists have worked more openly and have "proven" that everything that we've been certain of has been wrong for decades.
The USDA says grains are good; more widespread research says otherwise. Meat and fats have been condemned for 40 years; now researchers are claiming that they were fine all along. Eggs have been bad for two generations; now they are good again.
So in a very real sense, we know very little about which foods are "good" and which are not. Meat and cheese appear to be valuable; carbohydrates seem less so. So eat your burger, not your fries. Too much of anything is probably bad for you; so is too little. Human beings evolved as omnivores that would eat anything that didn't eat us first.
Keep an open mind, because "doctors" will constantly contradict each other's pronouncements.
