1/4) “Satiety score” score suggest macadamia nuts are more likely to promote weight gain and prevent weight loss than cheesecake?! (higher = more satiety) 🧐
Macadamia = 17
Cheesecake = 19
Battered fried shrimp = 35
Apple juice = 32
Fried zucchini fritters 27

2/4) First, lest address the science. Do macadamia nuts cause weight gain?
In a 4 week interventional trial in which people were instructed to eat 40-90 grams of macadamia there was actually a net weight loss.
Try getting those results with cheesecake…

Over past few days, I’ve gotten dozens of messages expressing disappointment in the new satiety scoring system
It’s a reasonable concept at best, but definitely not ready to be available as a public tool if it’s promoting cheesecake and apple juice over raw nuts.

4/4) Finally, I’m calling on members of the DD scientific advisory board @KenDBerryMD @DoctorTro to chime in with their opinions on satiety scoring algo because I can’t imagine the majority are in support of this tool
