I've heard the sugar-is-bad, fat-is-not argument but this is the first time someone explained the underlying mechanism.
Sugar Spike -> Inflammation -> Damaged Blood Vessels.
- slaxman 13y agoI agree. The explanation seems so obvious on an after thought. Unfortunately, mainstream doctors will take a while to change 50 years of opinion. I am especially surprised that sunflower & soya oil are bad for health. Almost every one says the opposite.
- joshuaellinger 13y agoMakes the whole med. diet anomaly make sense as well.
- robotresearcher 13y agoHe does not explain the mechanism. He states that blood sugar spikes cause inflammation. There is nothing in the article that explains that at all.
- calinet6 13y agoIt's easy to believe things are obvious when explained in this way, but what it doesn't tell you is that these so-called obvious facts are not true. This is no more science than the miracle tonics of 100 years ago. If it sounds too good to be true, maybe it is.
