Not only does cutting fat force you to eat more of something else (sugar and carbs, as the article points out) in order to reach your caloric intake, essential food nutrients are fat soluable. As the nation decreased its fat intake, we were also decreasing our absorption of food nutrients. Not only were we becoming less healthy as a product of weight gain, we were also getting less healthy due to the inability to get nutrients from the food we ate.
