They will continue to teach students this fat-myth. I wouldn't touch vegetable oil (Except occasionally Olive oil because I like the taste in Mediterranean food.) I eat a lot of red meat and fish, butter cheese and cream. I refused to take statins, much to the displeasure of my Doctor. (So much disapproval, that I took the prescription, filled it out, and just put the boxes on the shefl in my bathroom.) Anything for a quiet life! My cholesterol levels show readings of just over 5. Less than average I am told. So my Doctor thinks the statins are working,  (although no tests were taken before she prescribed) and public money is being wasted, as I don't have to pay for my drugs. Mind boggling mis-science. (Is there any such word? probably not, but then there's no real danger in eating fat either, unless you take starchy carbs with it.

It was almost entirely a result of cutting out carbs. I also took certain metabolism-correcting amino's like arginine, carnitine, and glutamine, plus various antioxidants and Omega-3's. At first I'd tried that exact diet but included "healthy complex carbs" (also "practically one word," lol!) I could not lose an ounce, indicating that my metabolism was not corrected, so stored fat was not eaten. After I cut out carbs and lost weight for a couple of months, summer rolled around and I felt it must surely be ok to eat some of the great sun-ripened fruits and berries. Unfortunately, that caused lots of problems I won't go into here. It was disappointing, but I'm just saying it because for SOME of us, even that healthy form of fructose is still poison. This may be because I was raised on high fructose corn syrup and white bread. My infant formula, in the 50's, was 70% karo syrup. So I just want to let people know, they may have more to reverse than seems logical. Yet if you tell friends/doctors you can't eat "healthy complex carbs" and "healthy sun-ripened fruit" they get apoplectic in their defense of those foods. You almost have to keep it a secret! So thank you GREATLY for putting this information out there. Oh, and as you know, Big Pharma doesn't like you, because these diets correct your metabolism, naturally normalizing cholesterol and triglyceride levels. They can't make money that way, and statins are the biggest-selling drugs out there. So everybody, keep a lookout for bogus industry-produced "articles" that try to give a bad name to things like leptin. They're out there and they're evil!!!

The last one I have is from May 18th. Should I be going something? Thanks - I love your podcasts & have lost 30 lbs since listening. <i>So many people have e-mailed me lately asking where the new episodes of the podcast are on iTunes. We’re moving all the old episodes over to a new web site, so the new ones are not being cataloged at iTunes yet. But you can still access them if you <a href=http://feeds2.feedburner.com/thelivinlowcarbshow/feed rel="nofollow">subscribe to the new podcast feed</a>. This will insure you will never miss a single episode as we continue moving the archives over to the new site. THANKS so much for your incredible patience during this process. --Jimmy</i> Hi, this is a technical question,
