Default Uncovering the Atkins diet secret - for Moosh - again

"Mirek Fidler" wrote in message ...
Oddly enough, I haven't read anywhere where a single person in any of
these threads has said anything about calories disappearing, except


Well, reading the whole thread, I think that it was what Moosh thinks
you are saying


Moosh seems to think a lot of things that were never stated or
intended.

Anyway, I would still like to see metabolism efficiency for
fat/protein/carbs in different context. Are there some web resources to
show it ?

I've haven't seen anything like it. But I haven't searched for that
specifically. It seems that everyone has blindly accepted that
carb/protein=4 kcals and fat=9 kcals ever since the turn of the
century with only some minor re-calculation in the late 50's or 60's.
I still haven't found one study that specifically states that the kcal
counts can be used directly to predict weight gain or loss. And Moosh
isn't volunteering any info that could clear this up.
