How to lose weight.
Go to any bookstore and look for a "diet" book. You'll find hundreds of books by many different authors all sayin something different.

Man, that is an endless question. I'd compare it to, "What do hillary Clinton and Dick Cheney disagree on mostly?" I understand your question, and I'm certainly not mocking it, but since there's a buck (or 30+ billion a year) to be made, this list is endless.

If I said "What topic/s do nutritionists disagree on?" your statement would make sense to me.
But since I said mostly would that not narrow it down?, its like picking 2-3 subject matters not endless at all.

Here are a few to get you started Raw Food vs. Cooked Food. Microwaved Food vs. Other Methods. Organic vs. non-organic. Sprouts and underdeveloped vegetables. (akin to the stem cell dynamic) Fasting - Good or Bad (in terms of autolysis) To cleanse or not to cleanse. (your colon of course) Fad Dieting Reasons dieting fails. Antioxidants. The effects of caffiene on the body. (Some say Caffiene is great for you, some disagree) Sugar, Sugar, Sugar. (Sugar, the worst drug to ever hit the streets of America) Milk (check out notmilk.com) Processed meats vs. fresh cuts. Fish and seafood is great for the brain (If you want a salinium/mercurty pickled noodle)

And that's just the point, like fraggin pointed out, let's get it started there (and all of those topics have been written and argued about in encyclopedic length) And there really is no such thing as "mostly". If you're asking the question in earnest, and it seems that you are, then you haven't spent the thousands of hours studying and digging through all of the opinions out there. And that's why "mostly" DOESN'T exist in context that you want it to.
Good luck.

I honestly have the belief that a LOT of these folks find a certain topic, and then just argue the other side of it. The way I look at it, for my life anyway, is that the more common sense that's involved, the "better" it is i.e. less cooked and more raw, less processed and more natural, exercise over couch potatoness and so on.
When a "diet" takes all sorts of tests, and programs, and certain foods, blah blah blah, usually, and there are exceptions to every rule (most especially in the cases where a person has already developed a dis-ease) it's mostly all, if not all garbage. Bank on that.
Diet and exercise are difficult to follow in this instant gratification, un-disciplined country we live in. Not to mention the crap you catch from truly sick people when you stay the course. I've lived on both ends of the spectrum, and I, along with my wife, children and a few close friends, are more than willing to trade the little insults and digs at our "too thin" bodies, and what we choose to eat, for the energy and overall sense of well being that we now have.
I wish you the best, and check out that site.
