I wouldn't trust mainstream nutrition advice coming out from any country with a >20% obesity rate. So maybe from Japan, China, Thailand, Indonesia or Buthan. But not from the UK.

Austrialia is just the beta-version for what's coming to the rest of the "free world". If Covid and global warming didn't exist, they would have to invent them.
