    The study is biased, and YES, if Atkins did a study saying low carb was awesome, I would laugh at that as well.

    How about just find yourself a diet which you can actually reach a healthy weight at.. and get tested to make sure your health improves too, and then just eat that diet, and let's stop acting as if what works for us, is the only solution, and everyone else's diet is going to kill us.

    To start, don't trust ANY study about diet, unless the results show the OPPOSITE of what the funder believes.

    If Atkins did a study showing grains were the secret to a long healthy, life, I would give it some credence. Same if these guys were saying.. eat more fatty meats!!

    but that never happens, because there are NO unbiased studies.. the person paying has a bias. If a study did show their ideas to be wrong, they simply wouldn't release that study. It would go in the shredder. The people doing the study would never be used again.. it's a system set up to confirm what people want. These people are simply buying papers which say what they want to hear.

    Trust your results. Do the diets, see the weight results, talk it over with your doctor, see the test results.. how does it affect your health? Then pick what's healthiest for YOU.

    Conspiracy theories, conspiracy theories everywhere. Can you really really trust your Doctor though, that is the question. just kidding with you.
