"Also supported by the NIH. Why is it that Dairy is a conflict of interest, and the NIH isn't?"
Because "Overall the dairy industry would probably greatly benefit from a recognition that saturated fat is healthy."
Again, I'm not saying the research is invalid. It would benefit everyone to accurately know what's healthy, what's not, and what doesn't matter so much.
And yes, of course, an industry that sells saturated fat should know as much about saturated fat as possible. But this is the world, and it makes sense to treat such a study and its participants with healthy skepticism.
