The community is highly resistant to changing their mind on what they hold to be self-evident and that requires no further proof. I.e. fat causes heart disease, and eat less, move more. However new risk factors are emerging, like that of inflammation. Since no one has yet intimated that fat causes inflammation (AFAIK), there is a chance for the new information to emerge untainted by all that baggage.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13260386.post-421838260672327942007-12-03T21:47:00.000-06:002007-12-03T21:47:00.000-06:00So nice to have you back.

Everybody knows that dietary saturated fat increases blood saturated fat - which is wrong!<BR/><BR/>And anybody who has ever done low-carb will tell you that it clears up a lot of nagging little health problems that are inflammatory in nature. In fact, these problems often clear up much faster than would be expected solely by weight loss. For example, my feet stopped hurting mere days into my low-carb regimen, when I had lost less than 5 pounds, and my joints never hurt any more, even though I am still somewhat overweight. If my feet and joints ached from the extra load they were asked to bear, how come they cleared up so fast? And I'm sure I'm not the only one who has experienced this.<BR/><BR/>It's nice to see a study that confirms something we already know!<BR/><BR/>Dianne, aka <A HREF="http://migraineur.wordpress.com" REL="nofollow">Migraineur</A>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
