[QUOTE="Art Of Flowers, post: 1598963, member: 375067"] It is quite educational watching "That Sugar Film". Damon Gameau swapped their low carb diet with one eating the same number of calories, but high carb for 60 days. The result was a extremely unhealthy. Another film "Fat Head" had someone eat 2000 calories/day junk food for a month, but mostly fat and low carb. Surprisingly, he lost weight. Some people can tolerate the typical high carb western diet, but many people either get fat, have glucose spikes or get diabetes as a result. A recent NHK documentary on glucose spikes suggest 80% of CVD is associated with people with diabetes, pre-diabetes or have glucose spikes. Strokes, cancer and dementia are also associated with glucose spikes. The reduced life expectancy of type 1 and type 2 diabetes sufferers is linked to glucose spikes and the damage it causes. Eating a high carb diet wont kill you in the short-term, but may severely reduce your life expectancy and quality of life in the long term. [/QUOTE]
