Oh...and did I mention-- eating this way did get me my current body? Just sayin' ...all the carb phobia is a bit unfounded.
and, truly, it isn't "carbs" that are the issue, it is what kind of carbs. White sugar, white flour, and white rice? none for me, thanks. I'll stick to yams, whole grains, and whole fruit/veggies.0 -

There is more to health than what is in the mirror.
FACT: Carbohydrates drive insulin production that causes cardiovascular heart disease (CHD).
FACT: Carbohydrates, which turn to glucose, hype the metabolism and trigger the release of disease-causing hormones like insulin, cortisol and adrenaline.0 -

Neither of those things are facts. Try again.
In fact, the fact that you even think those are facts tells me your understanding of human physiology and pathophysiology is very poor. If you did you would never claim those things as facts.0 -

I freakin' LOVE LOVE LOVE carbs with all my heart and soul.
However, they do not love me. I have to limit them to keep my blood sugar balanced.0 -
Reported post for deliberate trolling.
It's supposed to be a site that caters for all attempts to get healthy isn't it? Why belittle the choices of some?
the same reason others "belittle" people for EATING carbs. no difference except I'm not "belittiing" at all. posting a cartoon has become belittling? that's news to me i guess. my apologies.0 -
