Help with Twitter Attack Dog on Zoey Harcombe

(Nigel Williams) #1

Someone on twitter is going hard at Zoey Harcombe. There view is Zoey has no legitimacy in nutrition as she not qualified as a nutritionist.

Could any of you give me some nutritionists who are LCHF supporters, as it will help me respond better.

Didn’t she just get her doctorate?

I recall one of the people on this list, Amy Kubal, was (at least in 2012) involved in some sort of keto advocacy.

And she was invited to present at Noakes trial in South Africa.

Thank you all this is immensely helpful

One of these days the rest of the world is going to wake up and see how wrong they’ve been. And we all get to be part of that change and it makes me so excited.

And we get to be keto-hipsters who did it before it was mainstream! Although I don’t own enough flannel right now…

Q: How did the keto hipster burn their mouth?

A: They ate bacon before it was cool. :smile:

Try to find one nutritionist with half the understanding as Zoe.

I’m avoiding getting in to a slanging match where they can say I’m a bully or dogmatic. Want to draw out their lack of understanding so patience and calmness necessary.

Maybe leave it to Zoe to respond if she feels it’s warranted - sometimes it’s just to ignore these nay-sayers and let them wither on the vine, so to speak.

Thanks Ian

I generally don’t bother but there is something odd about this one. They are also aggressive and keeping their identity secret. They are looking to discredit on a personal level and on the science.

I wander whether this is a group of people their twitter tag is WholeDietHeroes but there’s nothing about what they believe I.e whether they are a dietician or fitness trainer. It was set up at the beginning of 2017 and the first few followers were all dietician associations.
