“We have only to look at the obesity, diabetes, and heart disease epidemics sweeping the industrialized nations and almost single-handedly destroying their economies as proof of the poor dietary habits of too many people.”

Nerrrrrrgh!?!!!!

Almost single-handedly destroying their economies. Almost single-handedly destroying their economies. Almost single-handedly destroying their economies. Almost single-handedly destroying their economies. Almost single-handedly destroying their economies. Almost single-handedly destroying their economies. Almost single-handedly destroying their economies.

WTF.

Even if you agree that all these things are happening, the economy line is still WTF.

This is in an otherwise excellent manual on tube feeding. But every now and then the authors biases creep in and just…. WTF.

There’s lots wrong with the economy but its not caused by poor dietary habits. Not even close. Much less single handedly.
