..the diet did not make a significant difference in development of the two cancers or heart disease.

I'm not anti science, but this is another example of what's called 'scientific truth' changes from time to time. Once they said alcohol is bad, then it turns out one glass a day is good for your heart. And there are so many things that are considered 'scientific truth' out there actually are challenged in other studies.

I remember somebody said something like, "in science, truth is held until a new study shows that it's not true anymore"

Look, the low-fat diet people never came up with any "science" other than chemistry to support their views.

The low-carb diet people could point to the way the digestive system actually works.

We should not be surprised to find that in a large population study, no "science" could be found to recommend a low-fat diet to anyone.
