Well, there are the food companies selling low fat crap and flour and sugar laden foods, plus the pharmaceutical companies selling drugs designed to treat high blood pressure, high cholesterol, acid reflux, and diabetes, plus even the doctors prescribing all those medications. I don't usually credit conspiracy theories either, but the outcry against low carb diets and Atkins in particular is so virulent and vicious and filled with outright lies that you just have to wonder why...
