>> Sadly, you hit the nail on the head, 100%. That is exactly the problem, most dietitians will still try to sell you on the CDCs protein intake recommendation of 50g and and a diet that consists of 80% carbohydrates - which just plain contradicts mounting scientific evidence.
In nutrition there is never ever (never ever) such a thing as a "scientific evidence".
All the nutrition research around is a pile of conflicting information.
Just as an example, a short time ago in HN was pointed a research where "a calorie is a calorie" was proven, in the context of a diet.
I still remain convinced that having a basic clean nutrition and a decent amount and consistent of sport would turn any healthy individual (9x% of the population) into a fit one. People keeps feeling attracted to nutrition religions just because they think they can get in shape without changing their unhealthy habits.
