Eat Real Food by David Gillespie

It was an ok read.
A lot of the information he presents about oil and sugar is good and correct, but he does make sweeping generalisations and explains away topics that he deems 'ok'.
An example is how we should cut all walnuts and limit our fruit to once or twice a day, but alcohol is ok, full cream milk is great and has no risk factors and soft drink is ok?
All of the above is incorrect and many studies show it. I was also disappointed he did not reference the China Study, which is the largest and most comprehensive study done on nutrition.
It is quite clear he is a lawyer and not a doctor or scientist, by the way he approaches analysing clinical papers.
