What is most surprising is not the serious flaw in Ancel Keys' Hypothesis .He had some ambitions to prove something he had already preconceived.and he played politics It is not even surprising that AHA and NIH had based their nutritional recommendations on this flawed hypothesis of Ancel Benjamin Keys .What is most surprising is the fact that even after the serious flaws in his study have been discovered lately and the fact is known that the fat restrictions have resulted in the outbreak of diseases beyond proportions,still people are unwilling to change but continue to uphold the seriously flawed nutritional guidelines which was based on a seriously flawed hypothesis and continue to argue in favor of fat restrictions without knowing the facts. This is the most surprising part of this entire sad fat mythology
