Apart from the quote in the picture, Einstein also famously said this:
Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.
Both quotes fit perfectly to the new UK strategy to reduce obesity: Cut down on saturated fat in sugar-stuffed candy and junk food.

The problem? This is exactly what people have been trying to do for 30 years, while obesity rates have skyrocketed! So why will the exact same strategy suddenly have the opposite effect?
Here’s why the old fat phobic advice is bad for your health:
- Saturated fat has little or nothing to do with heart health
- Reducing fat means you’ll likely increase carbohydrates (or stay hungry). Junk carbs – like sugar – in processed foods is the most fattening thing you can eat. It makes you hungrier and makes you want to eat too much.
England is already the most obese nation in Europe. Believing that this 80′s style fat-phobic campaign will change anything is simply insane.
