I immediately think of butter, fat, dairy, and eggs. We were all told around the 1980’s to avoid them as they will make you obese, raise blood pressure and cholesterol levels. Until pretty recently the American FA was still saying are all bad, then it went to “in moderation” etc. In fact it was all enjoyed and quite healthy up to the late 1970’s and now again it is basically back in most people’s diets.
Actually, we’re discovering, other foods are often the cause of those symptoms, but don’t let me knock the advertising industry for fast and processed foods ;-)
Eggs are pretty nutritious actually (as long as not too many, like many other things) and yes they contain some cholesterol, but a body with zero cholesterol is a dead body. The brain needs cholesterol to survive. It’s all about moderation, as the dieticians love to say.

Fat was attacked by big sugar.
Dairy and Eggs are very bad for you and it’s only recent that it’s been taken off of Canada’s Food Guide.
