[QUOTE="Beating-My-Betes, post: 2458981, member: 532959"] [USER=532959]@Beating-My-Betes[/USER] you might find one of the authors interesting considering your disparagement on another thread yet look at the company he's keeping..[/QUOTE] I think that Gary Taubes is completely lacking in scientific integrity, and guilty of some of the greatest perversions of the scientific method, in recent history. I'm not sure it's such a good look for those who choose to be associated with him. But, alas... If anyone is slightly curious as to the the science and data that Taubes had to ignore or manipulate to end up with 'Good Calories Bad Calories', and if it's deemed on-topic, I can post links. But given the focus of this thread is on a study that aims to explain a possible theory behind the obesity epidemic, I'll offer a counter-argument [URL]https://thedietwars.com/why-are-americans-getting-fatter-a-food-love-story-in-six-graphs/[/URL] It's focused on Americans, but really we're talking about the Standard Western Diet. It's part of a much bigger deep-dive into the ideas around the low-fat government guidelines and the obesity epidemic: [URL]https://thedietwars.com/dietary-guidelines-megapost/[/URL] And all this before we consider how activity levels dropped from this period, onward. You stick with insulin-theory; I'll go with Occam's Razor ;) [/QUOTE]
