Dr Richard Cottrell, Director-of the Sugar Bureau and public health nutritionist has carried out studies on the diet. He said, "The easiest way to lose weight is to reduce your calorie intake, regardless of the diet.

I knew this was going to happen. Some establishment nutritionist, afraid of losing face or unable to bear the cognitive dissonance of evidence that contradicts his cherished notions, has gone off the deep end. Nobody denies that in the very short term, calorie restriction makes you lose weight. The relevant question is what happens over the longer period. Further, to contend that chocolate, even the yummy dark stuff, is appropriate as a nutritional cornerstone of a food plan is the height of lunacy. Cottrell should turn in his credentials and go to work in the PR field.
