Am I just stupid, or did they report average caloric consumption of 1800 for people with average BMI of 35? Seems to me the folks should have been loosing weight. Given calorie deficits around 1000. The lack of critical thinking that passes for “research” is depressing.George Meadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10119089587344604945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13260386.post-1161144990144848972006-10-17T23:16:00.000-05:002006-10-17T23:16:00.000-05:00Yes, always ask yourself: for what reason is this ...Yes, always ask yourself: for what reason is this report being published.

What's kind of ironic is that some fields of scientific research, such as parapsychology, have had this kind of BS foisted on them ad nauseum and as publicly as possible for decades. It wasn't until Atkins that people in "traditional" science fields started realizing how much of science is literally nothing but propaganda.PJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04391277875371518678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13260386.post-1161111776129093292006-10-17T14:02:00.000-05:002006-10-17T14:02:00.000-05:00A true disgrace.
