Leading nutritional scientists are calling for a radical re-think in the way we understand diet that looks at how mixtures of nutrients influence health rather than nutrients in isolation.
Researchers at the University of Sydney's Charles Perkins Centre have developed a new framework for nutritional health that looks at the links between certain diets, health and disease.

The only way we should accept a new nutritional pyramid is if it is created without any influence by the agriculture industry and is based on the latest scientific (independently - not big food corp funded) evidence. Based on this, the new pyramid would be recommending a vegan/raw lifestyle. Whether we like it or not, this is what research is telling us we should eat. Anything else is just marketing to keep farmers in jobs.
