Anyone heard of the Womens Health Initiative study released last month?

Question

I found a writeup from Dr. Dean Ornish at http://www.rd.com/content/dr-dean-ornish-column/ that says it was essentially useless/misleading because they didn't change their diet enough. It apparently muddied the waters even more because they concluded that a "low-fat diet does not cut health risks."

That's exactly the opposite of what Dr. Ornish found. He says on page 2 from data collected in their own controlled trials, "that the more people changed their diet and lifestyle, the more improvement we measured. In order to reverse disease, people needed to make much bigger changes than most doctors had been recommending. If you can reverse disease, then it's even easier to prevent it."

I believe this was in the October, 2007 issue of Reader's Digest.

Answer 1

Other than the article in Reader's Digest, nothing is known public. Any way thanks for the information-
