Putting the latest scientific evidence under the microscope, we’ll find out these diets' true impact on your health. Today we’re talking about the low-fat diet, popularised in the 1970s and fueled by the belief that fat was the culprit behind heart disease and weight gain. However, the aftermath saw a surge in low-quality carbs.
