Low-carb and Mediterranean diets beat low-fat for weight-loss, lipid changes at two years
I know this is heresy but I think the best thing to come out of this study
is the positive publicity it is generating for low carb. I'm so tired of people trashing eggs, meat with any fat and butter saying they have to watch their cholesterol. And if the LCers were indeed at maintenance levels, it shows that you don't have to be doing induction, which most people seem to think is what LC is, to obtain many of the benefits. We shouldn't be surprised that a study whose results we like has its flaws, that has certainly been true of the studies that had results we didn't like. There are so many variables and such difficulty in controlling the behavior of the subjects, that no dietary study done on humans will be perfect. |
