I'm sure Barilla (a pasta company) has no self-interest in cherry-picking their studies and findings about diet that cuts all of their products from a persons diet...![]()

I find it quite odd that a diet aimed at decreasing fat, has you getting %60 percent of your calories from fat. Am I missing something here? This doesn't sound healthy to me...
Not sure why the link didnt work ill try this time again,
dietary fat isn't added to the body as fat. how did you come to that conclusion?
Boba - slightly amusing assumption there but its def no bias. What they give is true and backed up by literature.
Phate, Multivitamins isnt some magic pill, your still going to get the short and long term effects.
I couldnt care what you guys eat, do what you want but dont come back begging when things start to go wrong..
I didn't. I was just stating that a diet with such a high fat content doesn't seem very healthy or balanced to me. Whether you gain or lose fat on your body, you're still putting a ton of junk in your body that it wasn't designed to eat at such large quantities. (Unless that is you're a descendant of an eskimo who survived off of seal blubber.)
EDIT: By the way, I am nearly 100% positive that the brain doesn't use 200g of carbs per day as Mreik suggested.
the thing is, spicy, that there isn't agreement on the whole "fats are bad thing" Cholesterol isn't bad, a lot of people claim satured fats aren't bad either when they are not accompanied by carbs.
Where did Mreik claim the brain needed 200g glucose?
I read all his replies, never did he state that.. did I miss something? Can you find a quote?
Oh yeah i meant to respond to "saturated fats is only bad if consumed with carbs"
That is one of the dumbest things i have ever heard.
The old adage of never trust everything you read applie there.
By the way the brain does use more than 100g a day.
Then let your body get used to it, the body is great at adapting.
Oh yeah, most modern American/Western bodies have done a wonderful job adapting to the typical high fat/high cholesterol diet. Atherosclerosis is just a fine adaptation indeed. What a wonderful and fascinating function of the human body...
I do know that a lot of heart disease is genetically based, but when a large portion of the population has those genes. Why risk it? Check with your doctor first before going on such a high fat diet...
yeah adaptation doesnt always have to be positive.
First time you agree? wooo haha.
Well whatever your brain was defecient in would have been supplied by ketones. Im a bit woozy on the details, anyhow i checked and it says we use about 150g of glucose a day and 75% is used by the brain.
