Incompetent govt advice & DIY health

It's true. We've not placed much store in top-down, government diet advice for many years now - too many revolving doors and conflicts of interest with industry - but the latest report on saturated fats from a UK govt panel has finally extinguished any lingering hope. It really is time for DIY health with the support of independent advice.

Our lead article today deals with the clearly thorny issue of saturated fats. Note the plural. Despite what government scientists would have you believe, it's not a single fat, but a collection of different fatty acids with different biological profiles. And, they're absolutely essential for our health. Read on to find out why you need to consign government advice on fats to the nearest bin. It's not about public health, it's all about corporate profit.

Our second offering is a little lighter seeing as it's the summer holidays over here in Europe. If you've wondered what language we're talking when we've mentioned the 'Ecological Terrain' previously, our newest video in our Health Hack series should bring it alive for you and make it personal. Take a 3-min break and treat yourself!

We sign off with our usual round up of leading news in bite-sized chunks.
