Tufts professor Jeanne Goldberg told NBC’s nightly news and the Today Show that Americans should not abandon low-fat, high-fiber diets, despite recent claims that the diets don’t lower risk of colon cancer.
Referencing the two studies that started the debate over the diet’s effectiveness, Goldberg told NBC that she believes low-fat, high-fiber diets continue to be very important, refuting claims that diets are ineffective in lowering the risk of colon cancer.
“The findings of this study do not translate to, it’s a waste of time to eat fruits and vegetables and whole grains. Far from it,” Goldberg said. She is one of many experts who are concerned these studies' results will send the wrong message to health-conscious Americans.
