Belinda Fettke

For more than half a century we’ve been told to eat a diet high in grains and low in saturated fat and instead of improving health outcomes the incidence of non-communicable disease has escalated. 

Discovering Belinda's husband, Orthopaedic Surgeon Dr Gary Fettke, had been targeted for 'active defence' by the cereal industry in 2014 and subsequently became the only medical doctor in the world - 'silenced' - from providing nutrition advice to his patients; people with metabolic disease and the complications of Type 2 diabetes, requiring debridement and even amputation of their lower limbs, was unbelievable... 

Belinda began her research into the vested interests and ideology shaping our dietary and health guidelines to clear Gary's name. She began asking why 'plant-based' dietary and health guidelines had become strict rule books, who was writing them and who was defending them! Incredibly she discovered... the answers were buried in the pages of history.

Belinda Fettke was the voice during the time when her husband, orthopedic surgeon, Dr Gary Fettke was being silenced by the cereal industry.  She uncovered deep in the history books, that our dietary guidelines, research and medical curriculum was being rewritten to remove animal protein and fat, replacing them with fruit, grains, nuts, seeds and plants as ‘God’s appointed diet for man’. This is clearly not evidence-based but ideological and religious.  Now our doctors, nurses and dietician education is being influenced by the food industry and religious sects.
