Yes, we could reasonably point to this guidance as a primary root cause in the early days resulting in new foods (Snackwell's anyone?) with low fat and much higher sugars that couldn't replace the satiating effect of healthy fats and led to rampant health plagues in obesity, T2D, CVD, Alzheimers, and many other diseases and symptoms associated with metabolic syndrome that are so common today.
