To the student of psychology this is a commonplace, but it is a great brake on scientific progress. The howl that went up against Harvey and Banting was nearly as loud as the one which greeted quotes Freud's Interpretation of Dreams in which he pointed out the facts of infantile sexuality. This is hardly surprising when one considers how sensitive most of us are to criticism of our views on our pet subjects. Among the quotes many diets which followed the publication of Banting's pamphlet, every variation of the three quotes main foods was tried but always with restriction of the total intake. It seemed that in spite of the real value of Harvey's observations and Banting's application of them, nutritionists could not bring themselves to abandon the idea that to lose weight one must eat less. This principle derived from the law of conservation of energy (what comes out must go in) on the basis of which it was deduced that the energy intake (consumption of food) must exceed the energy expenditure when obesity is developing.
