Default Our country weight-loss mainstream now seems to be SB-like low-carb!

Interesting - I have just looked at pages of our country mainstream
weight-loss organization (www.stob.cz) and found to my surprise that it
has gone low-carb (or controlled carb if you wish).

There is even SB book review saying that SB represents exactly the same
principles that STOB is promoting for recent two years. So to my
surprise, I was practically on mainstream diet last year (I am a
little bit dissapointed

Wish I was trilingual and was able to read the page.

I expected this kind of turn-around. First they disparaged low-carb as
quackery, then they made a stink about how dangerous it is. Now that
people are starting to really understand that low-carb works and is
safe and that low-fat doesn't work and leads to poor health, the
mainstream has to find a way to appear to be on-board with low-carb
without admitting that they've accepted low-carb, and more importantly
not appearing to admit they were WRONG about low-carb.

Talk about walking a tight-rope.

The message was eat less fat and more carbs. Now it is eat less fat
and sugary snacks. (finally!)

Pretty soon they will say that they were saying this all along and
they will present the low-carb diet as safe and effective while using
different language to give the appearance that they came up with it
and that it is different from the known low-carb diets. That is
happening now to some degree. The South Beach Diet is essentially the
same as any other low-carb diet but couched in terms and with
conditions (specific fats and carbs) that the mainstream can swallow
easier than with the atkins diet. The basic principles of southbeach
and atkins are the exact same.
