The Scandinavian country in question, might just be Sweden, though didn't look into it.
High fat has grown in popularity because the actual effects it have. People have started to feel much better and lose weight at the same time.
It's unfortunate the way the government treated Annika Dahlqvist when she first started recommending her diabetes patients to avoid carbohydrates and start with high fat instead. I think at some point she was shut down and prosecuted, but I am not sure.
- boothead 12y agoDidn't Sweden actually pass a law taxing fat at some point? Actually, now I think about it, it was Denmark.
- thirsteh 12y agoYes, Denmark. It was scrapped after about a year since the government found out the Danes were buying fatty products in Germany and Sweden. Classic Danish government.
- cschmidt 12y agoIt says Sweden a little further down the article. I've read that Low Carb High Fat (LCHF) is very popular in Sweden. They even have a LCHF magazine. The dietdoctor.com blog is written by a Swedish doctor.
