> should be eating a strict paleo diet

This seems to be a typical US american thing as well and why it is easy to become obese and unhealthy in the USA.

Tales of evil sugar and tales of good healthy high fat high protein diets with much animal products.

Worldwide scientific experts warn against much sugar and much fat and much animal products (high fat, high protein).

Exactly. American diet is excessive is people try to fix that by switching another excessive diet. Eat less, eat better foods. It's that simole. You don't need a fancy diet with a name.

I agree although the healthiest diet has a name: vegan or better whole food plant based diet.

There are a ton of healthy diets. You can pick pretty much any diet that is not the American standard diet and you will be fine.
