TWITTER: Why trust ‘science’? Science once told us sugar was a non-issue and it was fat that was bad!
TRUTH: Here’s some official dietary guidelines from 1980, 1985 & 1990, which (just like today) all say to avoid too much fat and sugar.

The same thing goes for that ‘but didn’t science once say smoking was good’.
That was cigarette ads. Not science.
The tricky thing is what science actually says & what the media and adverts portray it to say are rather different.
So please trust science, not scaremongers.

Unlike media, we don’t have to self select our claims on the basis of their novelty (ie newsworthiness).
‘Science says what it had said for the last 30 odd years’ isn’t exactly a good headline.
But that’s what’s great about science. It’s accuracy that matters, not popularity.
