Oh, I thought it was much more of a hack than the "Hacker's Diet" -- which is just low-calorie eating, after all. I've done low-calorie, and this is so much easier that it's not even funny. Plus, it appears to be a hell of a lot healthier.
And I designed my diet after reading Gary Taubes -- "Good Calories, Bad Calories" is very much not a diet book.
- chandler 17y agoI read GCBC about two months ago; although I've been interested in health & nutrition for several years now, it's amazing that I never understood how badly science has been mistreated by nutritionists & health experts. Moreover, because this advice runs so contrary to conventional dietary wisdom, many in the community are fascinated by reviewing studies for strengths & flaws (in the similar spirit of code-reviews); consequently, I've learned more about both human physiology and the scientific process in the past few months than my entire life (which is beneficial regardless of whether or not I continue down the low-carb path). For example, compare the quality of minds at work in the following post (it takes off in the comments): http://www.diseaseproof.com/archives/diet-myths-are-the-inuit-healthy.html http://www.diseaseproof.com/archives/diet-myths-are-the-inui...
