It's very interesting stuff. And I do recognize what he found in his first experiment. So it will definitely be interesting to see how things play out over the next few years. But IMO, it doesn't matter how effective or beneficial a diet is, if you can't sustain it. I low carb 3 days a week and those are tough days for me. My high carb days are much more beneficial. So compliance/adherence are definitely # 1.
