Updated Position Paper On Vegetarian Diets Released By The American Dietetic Association

Terrible news for vegetarians.

"The American Dietetic Association has released an updated position paper on vegetarian diets that concludes such diets, if well-planned, are healthful and nutritious for adults, infants, children and adolescents and can help prevent and treat chronic diseases including heart disease, cancer, obesity and diabetes."

Besides the facts that is the 21st century ("hello-o") and the ADA is just now "updating" it's position to "approve" of vegetarianism, any diet that is "well-planned," by definition, is "healthful and nutritious."

N'est-ce pas?

Morons.

But the real bad news is that dietitians, like docs, the government and others are also sources of the bad diet advice that prevents people from succeeding at weight loss.

If these folks endorse/approve of something, one has to look it twice, and very carefully each time, since they are so very wrong about the fundamentals.

The one saving grace for vegetarians is that, statistically speaking, when enough monkeys at keyboards type for long enough, one of them is bound to eventually write Shakespeare.

This may be that moment for the simians at the ADA.
