The Claim
Seven-day menus following the Swank low saturated fat diet for multiple sclerosis achieve a Healthy Eating Index-2015 score of 93.2 out of 100, indicating good compliance with the Dietary Guidelines for Americans and comparability to the Healthy US-Style Eating Pattern recommended by the Dietary Guidelines for Americans.
What the research says
Supports is higher
Support is ahead, but a single strong opposing study can change this.
These are independent scores, not a percentage. Higher-grade studies count more, so a single strong opposing study can outweigh several weaker ones.
A special diet for people with multiple sclerosis gets a very high score for being healthy and follows the same good eating rules recommended for all Americans.
