All Lard Diet Rocks Medical Community


CHICAGO- Riding the crest of the wave of carnivorous low carbohydrate diets
sweeping the nation, a doctor from Tennessee is touting an all fat diet
consisting primarily of butter products and animal fatty tissue as his
panacea to obesity.

"Let the fruit rot on the vine, leave the wimpy salads for the
rabbits-butter is where it's at, baby," claims Dr. Hugh Geliar in his new
book, "Sugar, Meat, Greasy and Sweet."

Geliar claims that unlike fruits, nuts, vegetables and other "pansy"
foodstuffs, lard-rich products satiate the body's need to secrete its own
insulin and energy-energy that unused, turns into body fat.

"Why force your body to produce sugar when all it needs is fat?" asked
Geliar. "Eat the fat, it goes away. But create the fat, it stays in the
body."

Geliar's book, though scarce on scientific data to support his claims and
generally rebuked in the medical community, provides dozens of high-fat
recipes that he claims have helped him personally shed 316 pounds during the
past 8 months.

"There's this widespread misconception that food needs to taste bad for it
to be healthy for you," Geliar stated. "In my book, you'll see that actually
the reverse is true. Give the body what it wants-greasy, sugary, gloppy
stuff. I used to weigh close to 900 pounds. I gained most of that weight
trying to adhere to these ridiculous diets that starved and tortured my
body, thereby forcing it into a state of shock. My body entered a kind of
warlike battle mentality and produced its own storehouse of fat to deal with
what it perceived as a dangerous onslaught of such evil Anti-Sugar toxins as
tofu, cottage-cheese and soul-sucking rice cakes."

Geliar's diet downplays the culpability that other regimens, such as the
Atkins Diet, place on bread and pasta products. "Hey, if someone refuses to
give their body the sugar and fat it needs through traditional means, such
as butter enemas or intravenous maple syrup, I would not recommend further
depriving their systems by abstaining from a healthy half-loaf of
chemically-enriched white bread or some cinnamon and sugar-coated,
jelly-saturated, chocolate-topped French toast sticks," said Geliar.
