1. Humans aren’t mice and this kind of reporting is extremely irresponsible, because this is how policy gets made. 2. HFD (high fat diet) is a synonym for diets with a high fat content that are still high in carbohydrates. If the diet used in the experiment is also low in carbs, this is explicitly mentioned. Indeed, from my reading, they fed those mice with Kliba-Nafag 2127, a diet used in experiments that has sucrose and vegetable oils in it. They even report testing their preference for water with sucrose in it ... so what the heck is the study measuring anyway? The clear confounding factors in all studies of “HFD” are sugar and vegetable oils. It is mind blowing how this gets reported as valid science. How can this even pass the review process? Are the standards nowadays so low?
