Yes but the people would need a very clear guidance as to which fats are good and which are bad. This will be a herculian task because of many different cultures and ethnicities, diet habits and religous beliefs.

@suramo...Yes...I got my thyroid functions disturbed because of using soy regularly  to maintain BS...

To  reduce Goitrogenic effects of soy/tofu, people eat a lot of sea food and sea weed in  some of the countries ....countries like india,  where there are less options to provide iodine through diet ...soy is a bad option for protein...so one has to stay from soy :) Eggs are better choice for protien

You didn't mention the results of your thyroid functions. Hoarse voice may be due to hypothyroidism.

@suramo...I did not have hoarse voice...I had no symptoms of thyroid, my tsh was 6.5 ...that I came to know after I had blood test done for my company...then it was corrected once I went off soy and started doing yoga and got enough vitamin D, as I diagnosed Vitmain  D deficient at that time...same with my wife...she had tests done from my company's side and she was also vitmain D deficient and had slight issue of thyroid tsh, as she also eating same food as mine :) :) ...She started going often in sun ..did yoga...got all well :)

Yoga works really well on thyroid ...I must say
