high times for low carb

7.9..13: summary:
. A Calorie Is A Calorie theory
disproven again?
nobody was seriously positing
that all calories are equal;
what they were trying to do is
not offend the food marketers
or those who like the new modern diet .
. what they were say is:
"( so what if corn syrup is addictive:
can we treat consumers like adults?! )

. however, it's very interesting to hear
that low-carb diets raise cortisol
and C-reactive protein (measure of inflammation)]
more than low-glycemic diets !
-- esp'ly when most people will
misinterpret what that just said:
Atkins did not raise these!
Atkins dieters had very good cortisol levels
relative to the levels associated with heart disease
and Atkins will cut your CRP in half !

Atkins diet in eskimos

8.14: co.apt/health/atkins in eskimos:
. Atkins was a doctor who specialized in heart health;
the medical community went against him because
he went against their keep it simple program
which said that saturate fats were bad
without mentioning that sat'fats were only bad when
combined with usa's main product:
grains .
. Eskimo's traditionally eat nothing but fresh, raw blubber (plenty of vit.c
in addition to megadoses of the satanic saturated fats),
and other raw animal products .
. they rarely had heart disease until western grains were introduced .
