Some people have to be told

The biggest selling diet book has copped criticism for confusing readers. According to Rosemary Stanton and John Tickell the diet conflicts with other nutritional advice issued by the government.

"They're (dieters) saying why do our dietary guidelines tell us to eat 65 to 100g of lean red meat three to four times a week," Ms Stanton told Macquarie Radio.

“And yet the CSIRO diet says 200g of meat at night and then another 100g of meat, chicken or fish at lunch. What do I do? Which one do I follow?"

What a crisis! People might have to make a decision for themselves. Quick, lets pen a letter to the Prime Minister – this is important.
