[QUOTE="Daibell, post: 2445765, member: 21149"] So it appears that to achieve a low level of 800 Calories, you get Low-Carb 'for free' along with it. I suspect it's the low-carb aspect that provides the weight loss and not the low-fat aspect as we know that carbs are the main cause of weight gain rather than fats. I just wish people, including experts such as Prof Taylor, would stop talking about Calories which are purely a measure of energy and as the body metabolises the three food groups in a very different way, measuring Calorie input is not a good measure. I was interested in one of the posts saying for the NHS to accept the ND diet, carbs couldn't be mentioned. I can believe that as the NHS bases much of it's dietary thinking on myth and legend.
