Comments on: High-Fat Diet Is Only Unhealthy In Tandem With A High-Carb One http://livinlavidalowcarb.com/blog/high-fat-diet-is-only-unhealthy-in-tandem-with-a-high-carb-one/1759 To educate, encourage, and inspire the world to start low-carb living Thu, 24 May 2012 00:33:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v= By: Mary Titushttp://livinlavidalowcarb.com/blog/high-fat-diet-is-only-unhealthy-in-tandem-with-a-high-carb-one/1759#comment-74702 Mary Titus Sun, 09 Oct 2011 16:57:00 +0000 http://livinlavidalowcarb.wordpress.com/2007/05/02/high-fat-diet-is-only-unhealthy-in-tandem-with-a-high-carb-one/#comment-74702 I love my low carb diet in tandem with my fats. I don't count carbs...don't need to because I avoid foods that are carby. Niney percent of the planet's vegetables are low carb. Many fruits are also low carb and of course the special part of dining low carb is the meat, chicken, fish, coconut oil, lard, butter or ghee. These make the entire diet a wonderful way to live and my lab records manifest the health benefits of this lifestyle. This is one I will keep deep into my old age.

For an agricultural based, i.e. high carb diet, the less animal fat in the diet, the lower the incidence of diseases like cancer. The Intuit diet seems to indicate that low carb/high fat is the way to go to keep the big C at bay as well as other chronic diseases. Have you ever read the CHINA STUDY?

But the point is the seemingly obsessive focus on fat while completely ignoring the role of carbs in the fat/carb connection is as ignorant as it is foolish.<br/><br/>How about we tell people that if you are going to eat carbs, then you had better cut down on your fat and protein? Or, if you want to eat plenty of fat and protein, then reduce your carb intake.<br/><br/>Isn't that better than the shrieking, "CUT YOUR FAT, CUT YOUR FAT" idiocy all the time?

How about we tell people that if you are going to eat carbs, then you had better cut down on your fat and protein? Or, if you want to eat plenty of fat and protein, then reduce your carb intake.

Isn’t that better than the shrieking, “CUT YOUR FAT, CUT YOUR FAT” idiocy all the time?

Even Valerie Berkowitz has said that low fat diets work. And as you yourself have noted its about finding what work for you and sticking with it, and for many folks that thing is a reduced fat diet. Low carb diets are a certainly vaild option for many, but it is only one, of many options.
