If you go to the senseaboutscience spoof diet page, the heading is this; Ask for evidence. But then they go down through various diets--the criticism of the no sugar diet is verbatim as given in the Daily Mail article, you'll die if you don't eat any sugar, because your only recourse will be meat and fat. Ask for evidence, yes. The descriptions of the diets, and their dismissal, are brief--too brief to actually get around to providing any evidence against their effectiveness. The headine says "Ask for evidence," not "ask us us to tell you there is evidence, no really, trust us." If the problem is people accepting things without evidence, the solution can't be soundbites.
