Re the last item on the list -- don't doctors recommend small frequent meals to help diabetics control blood sugar spikes? Just asking.
As to the other items -- thanks for clarifying, albeit a few decades too late.
Key conclusions | National Obesity Forum report
Eating fat does not make you fat
Evidence from multiple trials reveals that a higher-fat, lower carbohydrate diet is superior to a low-fat diet for weight loss and cardiovascular risk reduction
Stop counting calories
Calories from different foods have different metabolic effects on the body, so the cumulative calorie count is meaningless
You cannot outrun a bad diet
Obesity is a hormonal disorder leading to abnormal energy partitioning, which cannot be solely fixed by increasing exercise
Saturated fat does not cause heart disease and full-fat dairy is likely to be protective
New meta-analysis of the evidence available forty years ago does not support dietary fat restrictions
Avoid at all costs: “processed foods labelled “low fat”, “lite”, “low cholesterol” or “proven to lower cholesterol”
No single piece of evidence exists that demonstrates reducing dietary saturated fat reduces cardiovascular events and death
Snacking will make you fat
The increase in meal frequency plays an equal if not larger role in obesity and has largely been ignored
