> One that’s gotten very popular on the internet right (though there is prior art from Mother Jones on the left) points the finger at “seed oils.”
What? The right? This idea is so old that I remember it from when I first started reading about dieting. Has this guy never heard of Paleo? This is not a successor to "trans fats theory." Author clearly has no clue what he's talking about.
> Population aging has a mechanical impact on average obesity that is unrelated to changes in diet and nutrition.
He apparently hasn't read the very articles he's quoting. The Slime Mold Time Mold series quoted earlier in the article explicitly explains how this is in fact a new phenomenon - people actually used to get lighter and thinner as they got older, because they lost muscle.
Overall, typical useless punditry by someone who doesn't know a thing about the subject.
