The scientists with phds who study nutrition science are pretty clear on what a good diet for healthy living and longevity is. A mostly plant based Whole Foods diet with small amounts of fish. There’s a whole lot of nonsense that food industry scientists will try and spread to confuse the issue but the science is pretty clear on this. Lately we also have a whole class of “influencers” who jump onto the latest trend because they can make hundreds of millions selling supplements. Finally, there’s also a class of doctors, who are driven heavily by anecdotes and ignore the actual science. Doctors are not scientists people. For one thing, doctors, almost by definition in the minds of most people, deal with people who are sick. For another they deal almost entirely with anecdotes. Unfortunately a lot of doctors let these anecdotes and a few cases of possible genuine anomalies due to allergies, etc drive their opinions about nutrition which isn’t based on actual science.
