    Sientists come up with yet another diet to save the world.

    This is not science its epidemiology, the nutritional leader Walter Willett has presided over Harvard Nutrition since 1991, their advice has not exactly helped the world since then. Stordalen , the creator is a terminally ill vegan. The funders are the majr processd food companies of the...

    Water Fast and Christmas Past

    To be honest having decided to do it, it was actually very easy, I find it easier to eat NOTHING than to choose. In practise nothing is a binary decision so once you begin the determination gets better rather than worse as each hour passes. I also did it with a friend and that worked very well...

    Water Fast and Christmas Past

    By D4 the dawn phenomenon had alsmots disappeared and at D5 I was starting to hit a longer term blood sugar low. I have managed to keep the weight lost off 10 days later - despite some celebrations. I am now doing OMAD for a few days before having another go next week. No...

    I personally love vegetables and so I continue to eat them ( mainly tomato onion mushroom and spinach) I do note however that my hunger levels are definitely increased by vegetable intake. with meat only its much easier to not feel any hunger pangs at all between meals, so they definitely...

    when the questions are clearly a food branding survey, I think one can pretty much discount the resulting report !

    My contribution to the subject of schlepidemiology - published in the BMJ.. https://www.bmj.com/content/360/bmj.k822/rr-15 epidemilogical research had a place in science. I am doubtful it has much in nutritional science. Much nutritional epidemiological research over the last 50 years has been...

    IMHO (:)) EAT-LANCET is an agglomeration of epidemiologists ( led by Walter Willett) put together by a terminally ill vegan and determined to prevent the world recognising that animal agriculture is a vital part of the earth's eco-system . Their " scientists" include some of the shoddiest...

    The Guardian

    The point to bear in mind is that NONE of this research has ever actually compared what happens on a proper nutrient dense diet with little carbohydrates . ALL research for the last 50 years has begun with the epidemiological evidence of what populations are actually eating - the number of...

    The fuss over fibre is once again a construct to keep everyone in thrall to the food industry. One can easily choose to eat a high fibre diet which is also LCHF. However there is no real evidence that you need to. As usual all of these measurements are comparing what happens when you add...

    Low LDL and heart disease

    While we are on the subject - people think that the "med diet" was heart healthy because of Olive Oil. The 1965 study shows its not actually orders of magnitude better than vegetable oils. The Lyon heart study that came up with the Med diet was actually focussed on getting rid of Om 6 - it...

    Low LDL and heart disease

    For most of us the level of Om 6 (LA) in our bodies is enormous. That is because as soon as you eat anything processed the proportion of LA compared to any other fat is just huge. The chart show jsut how it has been increasing in humans since we switched to polyunsaturated vegetable fats...

    Anyone interested in following this through this podcast is worth a listen http://peakhuman.libsyn.com/tucker-goodrich-on-vegetable-oils-being-at-the-heart-of-modern-disease In particular - these theories Only oxidised LDL causes heart disease - what oxidises LDL? - seed oils Okinawa...

    Low LDL and heart disease

    That study was extremely clear on the point - DO NOT eat vegetable oils with heart disease. It was clearly under some duress to try to find the benefits , and had they found any it would have been in there. There is constant pressure to reduce LDL , all of the vegetable oils are marketed on...

    Well there are a whole slew of people lecturing about statins and suggesting it a waste of time worrying about it. maybe give this guy a read. you might decide to ignore him, but at least you will have some sense of the fact that the science is still not settled...

    Low LDL and heart disease

    As we all know - woe betide anyone who's LDL goes up on an #lchf diet! daily we get bombarded with messages about eating polyunsaturated fats because they cause king LDL to go down. I thought you might be interested to read this study. Done in 1965...
