[QUOTE="Guzzler, post: 2125059, member: 408573"] Because our evolution tells us so. We are hard wired to fatten up for winter. Watch other primates gorging on fruit in the wild. As has been said there are no natural high fat high carb foods, generally speaking it is man that puts those together. I am not moving the goal posts at all, I am speaking to basic physiology coupled with a sometimes emotional response. If all carbs were benign at all levels then why is there ever mounting evidence to suggest otherwise? Carbohydrates are not vital to humans (with a nod to the caveats of dyslipidaemia and Hypo treatments). So, where is the evidence that lowering carbs improves metabolic syndrome? It is all around you. I see no evidence for the removal of healthy fats or protein. [/QUOTE]
