When everything that is said in all newspapers, magazines and television
programs agrees with them, why would they change their recommendations simply
because some "wacko caveman" contacts them?

These people have a vested interest in making sure there is a continual supply
of illness.   (Of course, they would vehemently deny it, but that doesn't make
it less true.)

The health industry will be the last ones to acknowledge either paleo or
low-carb are in people's best interests.

Don't forget the representative of "Concerned Physicians" appearing on TV to
protest the effect of "meat industry lobbyists" in preventing all meat from
being removed from the official food pyramid!
