I'm so jaded by expert opinion these days. For decades doctors have been recommending a low-fat, high carb diet and saying things like saturated fats are bad for you. It's becoming very clear that there's no evidence this is considered healthy. If anything, the demonization of fats around the 80s coincides with increasing obesity rates in the US.
The American Heart Association literally has an infographic on their website that tells people to eat more polyunsaturated fats (i.e. vegetable oils) and completely avoid coconut oil (https://healthyforgood.heart.org/eat-smart/infographics/the-facts-on-fats https://healthyforgood.heart.org/eat-smart/infographics/the-...). Anyone who has studied the science behind ketosis knows this is completely bonkers.
