It's getting quite funny now, as my first post actually said
It just seems amazing there is so much disgust at discussing his actual business model.
You did all know this before right?
And did the research before committing to £85 a year?
But you are not admiring him for the fact he has helped so many thousands of people to enjoy a healthy life. You are purely admiring him because you believe his business model is making him rich. We have pointed out that he is not personally getting all the membership money for himself but paying a staff and offices and has declared that they plough all the money back in to help grow the team to get the message out wider.
Now if you admired him for the message he is spreading and the good he is doing then that's one thing but you are suggesting he is just in it for the money which I think it wholly unfair. He is not upselling anything - they have no products on the site, take no ads, no sponsorship. The membership is optional and anyone can get enough info to succeed at Low carb high fat without paying a penny.
I am very happy that my money is going into helping him and his team spread the message and keep it free for those who cannot afford to pay for the information. Anyone is able to try out the free parts of the site (which is most of it including the low carb challenge, the food lists, many interviews and videos etc etc.) for as long as they want and even the benefits of membership are free for a whole month before you commit anything and you can stop at any time you like.
You can claim all you like that he is doing the whole thing just to make massive amounts of money and float it as a business but you absolutely cannot know this. And as I have said, even if he was, then on the way he is doing massive amounts of good, helping hundreds of thousands of people to lose weight and to cure/reverse type 2 diabetes and if in the end he was able to make massive amounts of money from it, I would say good on him and he would still be a personal hero for giving me back my life and my health and doing the same for what hopefully, ultimately, will be millions more.
You say you don't care what people eat but you seem to object to people getting the facts on low carb high fat if it means someone, somewhere, might get paid.for something.
If it's funny to you and you think you are right then enjoy your position of superior knowledge and I will enjoy my good health and helping others to gain it too. There is nowhere else that has such a huge body of info on low carb and related diets and takes the input of so many scientists I admire, Taubes, Fung, Dr David Unwin from this very group etc etc and gives that away for free to people who need it.
In order to choose a diet that works for you ,you need to have the facts about it. Dietdoctor.com gives people those facts about low carb diets and I hope this conversation has sent a few more people to the dietdoctor.com site.
