Synopsis
"In the context of junk diets, embedded scientists, corrupt - or simply ignorant - doctors and dietitians, human health and omert s, what you believe about your personal nutrition will determine not just how you live, but also how you die." - Tim Noakes What would you do if you discovered that the food you have been told is good for you is actually the cause of your ill health ...' In December 2010, Professor Tim Noakes was introduced to a way of eating that was contrary to everything he had been taught and was accepted as conventional nutrition 'wisdom'. Having observed the benefits of the low-carb, high-fat lifestyle first-hand, and after thorough and intensive research, Noakes enthusiastically revealed his findings to the South African public in 2012. The backlash from his colleagues in the medical establishment was as swift as it was brutal, and culminated in a misconduct inquiry launched by the Health Professions Council of South Africa. The subsequent hearing lasted well over a year, but Noakes ultimately triumphed, being found not guilty of unprofessional conduct in April 2017. In Lore of Nutrition, he explains the science behind the low-carb, high-fat/Banting diet, and why he champions this lifestyle despite the constant persecution and efforts to silence him. He also discusses at length what he has come to see as a medical and scientific code of silence that discourages anyone in the profession from speaking out against the current dietary guidelines. Leading food, health and medical journalist Marika Sboros, who attended every day of the HPCSA hearing, provides the fascinating backstory to the inquiry, which often reads like a spy novel. Lore of Nutrition is an eye-opener and a must-read for anyone who cares about their health., 'My scientific conversion came about after what I call my 'Damascene moment'. It happened after I came face to face with compellingly robust evidence that contradicted everything I believed was true about optimum nutrition to treat and prevent serious diseases, such as obesity, diabetes and heart disease. I started to question whether much of what my professors at medical school had taught me as incontrovertible nutrition truths were, in fact, no more than myths - lies, even . . . I challenged two deeply held dogmas: the role of carbohydrate in nutrition and the diet-heart hypothesis that saturated fat causes heart disease. I expected that my colleagues in the medical profession and in academia, including my own university, would be intrigued. They would want to know why I had changed my mind. They would want to learn. I could not have been more wrong. The results of my personal choice would prove to be brutal for myself, my wife and the rest of our family, beyond anything I could possibly have imagined . . . In retrospect, embarking on this journey was not something my family and I did lightly. We certainly did not choose it. But once our enemies threw down the gauntlet in the most public way that they did, my wife and I were not going to go quietly into the night. Our opposition, the prosecution, has learnt that to their considerable cost. If ever there was an illustration of the lesson in unintended consequences, then the cane against me is the classic example. My message to you, dear reader, is that all people are entitled to their own opinions. But not to their own set of facts. So do not believe what you want to believe. Believe what the facts tell you is the truth. For in the context of junk diets, embedded scientist, corrupt - or simply ignorant - doctors and dietitians, human health and omertàs, what you believe about your personal nutrition will determine not just how you live, but also how you die.', "In the context of junk diets, embedded scientists, corrupt - or simply ignorant - doctors and dietitians, human health and omertàs, what you believe about your personal nutrition will determine not just how you live, but also how you die." - Tim Noakes What would you do if you discovered that the food you have been told is good for you is actually the cause of your ill health ...'
