I find myself having a kind of negative knee jerk gut reaction to celebrity diet spokes people. It seems to make dietary advice into a kind of popularity contest. I have no particular feelings about Halle Berry, pro or con, and if she brings people into a healthy way of eating then it's all good, I guess, but what kind of person gets their dietary advice from a celebrity? It's just plain silly. If they never get into the science, even at the most basic level so that they understand why this is a healthy way to eat, then it is unlikely to last.
