Dear Colleague:
In response to our letter asking the BMJ to retract the investigation by Nina Teicholz, the
journal has told us that the BMJ is continuing to review this article and plan to respond more
fully when our further enquiries are complete.
In the meantime, the BMJ has invited us to post the letter as a rapid response to the online
article. In order to post the letter, we have to send the journal a conflict-of-interest form for
each co-signer.
Please fill out page 4 of the form (attached) and email it back to my colleague, Angela Amico
(aamico@cspinet.org). Once we hear from everyone, she will submit the forms to the BMJ.
More information about competing interests for a rapid response is available here:

Best wishes,
Bonnie Liebman

Dear Colleague: Thank you for agreeing to sign the letter urging the BMJ to retract its
investigation of the Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committees report. The letter was signed
by more than 180 scientists in 19 countries.
We sent the final version of the letter (attached) to the BMJ editors this morning. You can
also find a version of the letter with live links to the footnotes on our website (see URL
below). The letter notes (at the end of the last page) that affiliations were listed for purposes
of identification only.
