Many myths have dominated health and diet beliefs in the USA strangely as a result of the country's push to innovate in all areas as well as Medical Science. Older societies are less susceptible to diet fads and have traditional customs and cultures that are more stable and carry on what was working over their long history. In the USA, unfortunately, the innovative spirit that has lead to so much explosive advancements in technology has opened the door to the influence of the medical industry into officially codified diet advice policy without truly considering if the advice is actually beneficial to anyone but the Medical industry. The Medical industry is very good at trauma but very bad at curing chronic illness. They don't have a vested interest in a heathy population. Quite the contrary. A few basic changes in diet could bring on a collapse of the Medical Industrial Complex. This would be a net positive and the benefits would spill over to benefit the entire society. Not only eliminating a vast ocean of human suffering but also a drop in Medical Insurance and the economic benefit of eliminating the huge parasitic Burdon of being the sickest people on the planet.
