Great stuff - everyone should know about this. My husband and I have been following a low carb diet for years (on and off with some cheating with rice and potatoes - I believe food stuffs made from flour and other grains are the worst carbs after sugar). The low carb diet truly works, but also it’s a great tool to know about if you find yourself putting on weight. The best book I’ve read on the diet is New Atkins, New You by Dr Eric Westman. It should be given out for free to every even slightly overweight person who visits a doctor.

I agree. It’s sad that more practitioners aren’t studying nutritional biochemistry as the low carb diet yields consistently good results. I guess if they did big pharma would get angry and tighten the leash. Be well and pass it on if you think others might benefit (and have a laugh as well of course)
