Eggs were bad and then they were good and then they were bad....etc etc etc. I've learned to not put faith in any single study. We all know what's good for us intuitively. We don't need a study to understand the simple concept of moderation in all things.0

For folks who are considering this article with any seriousness, I urge you to refer to the study linked, rather than just the university press release.0

Well, obviously. Fat has little affect on blood glucose.0

Well, HERE'S the problem:This work was supported by the Dairy Research Institute, the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association and the Egg Nutrition Center.
Follow the money, sheeple! No wonder the findings supported LCHF!-1 -

I'm pretty sure no one ever thought smoking was "good for you," maybe just not "bad for you." Difference.
Actually, Teddy Roosevelt was prescribed cigars as a child because it was thought that it would help cure his asthma (along with drinking coffee and whiskey). It didn't work out so well, but not surprisingly he did much better when he started incorporating vigorous exercise into his life.0 -

Well, those groups certainly have a vested interest in this study having results which would benefit their industries but it doesn't change the fact that eating fat doesn't make one fat and a high carb diet is problematic for those with certain medical markers. There have been other studies which have suggested the same (and no I don't have links to them while I'm at work) in the past and hopefully more coming in the future.0 -

for 6 months I have been eating low carb high fat, I have lost 112 pounds...i was type 2 diabetic and taking 49 units of insulin a night and on high blood pressure meds... Doctor says i am no longer diabetic ..i no longer take any insulin...i dont take high blood pressure meds.... I had a hard time grasping the fact that you can eat high fat and have good results but it has worked for me...it doesnt work for everybody..but did for me....0

All the subjects had metabolic syndrome. Is it surprising that increasing carbs was bad for them?0

Also, chicken skin should only be consumed if it's crispy. Soggy skin is just sad.0 -
While both diabetes and heart disease can be acquired/increase risk from lifestyle, eating habits, and being very overweight/obese, genetics will play a more significant role.
