I mean if you look at the growth of obesity from the 1980s onwards it's hard to argue otherwise.
There was plenty of nasty processed food in the 1970s but most people were still skinny, and the stats say they actually ate more calories in total back then.
One of the reasons governments still push high carb diets as healthy is because in the past poor people lived on mostly carbs, protein was much more expensive, but were still skinny and they can't work out why that doesn't happen now.
