This is retarded, you keep pulling bits and pieces of what I say out of context and take them to mean whatever you want. Do what you want, I'm done paying attention to this.
-
Uhhhh...no, what he has done has been reinforced every day by new studies.
-
Taubes has been dismissed by what exactly?
-
Nope, I was making a point, you obviously cant glean more than what the literal text means can you.
-
Yeah, that's not whats happening, there is a difference between arguing a claim and insulting someone. I do not tolerate the latter. Why are you so blind to the full spectrum of what I say.
-
You know, its perfectly valid to say, this is what I have come up with, and this is what I have read. If you don't want to read it, fine. If you want to argue the topic, fine. But that's not what is being argued anymore. And to glean the titles of several studies and assume something of what that means, vs actually reading…

Way to attack people who post decent information, and in no way shape or form did they attempt to attack you personally first. You MikeSEA need to do much in the way of learning how to argue your point. Lets turn the focus to you personally.... "I don't think I've ever been really in shape, and it's not going to get easier…

What's your point, I haven't even come close to reading all the same studies as he has. He's surpassed me by a at least a few years of research and came to the same conclusion. What does that tell you?
-
I believe if you where to try it, you would be surprised by the results. I don't understand how you can dismiss that claim based only on the idea that people are eating carbs. Stop eating them, show me your results. Or show me a study I haven't read so I can compare the data.
-
I simply posted a list of the studies I read. I read these, I wasn't using them to reference a specific point. I didn't come to my conclusion by any specific one, I came to it after reading, comparing, dismissing false evidence, and formulating the raw data behind the studies. Stop attempting to insult me by…
-
So what are you arguing about? I also think a zero carb diet is impractical. Yet everything I stated is still true. I posted all the journals I have read. After comparing the studies and contrasting the data between them, this was the conclusion I came up with. Every person I have helped follow this idea has done…

I need to interject, it is physically impossible for your body to convert protein into a carb. However rare, to much protein can cause uric acid toxicity, assuming your body cant process it like the average human can. On second note, you do not need to monitor calories on a low carb diet, eating low calorie, low carb, low…

low carb can only work if you remember one thing. Do not attempt a low fat diet. Focus on saturated and monounsaturated fats as well as protein, those are what will make this work.
-
Don't worry, science backs you. If you have any questions, I have lots of experience ;)
-
Wow, you really are not at the level I was expecting. How can you argue anything without understanding ALL the information. If I flip a coin 100 times, and withhold the answer half the time, I can convince you I have a coin with 2 heads. You need to be much better than that.
-
If you aren't willing to do the work to get the full spectrum of the information I have, than why are you bothering to argue at all. Honestly, I was hoping you'd be better than that. I read the study that claims insulin is not the evil thing science has made it out to be. Too bad it leaves so much out of the data, filling…

My favorite is Matcha Green Tea, they pound the tea leaves into a fine powder that you wisk into hot water or milk. This is how most Japanese take their green tea http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matcha http://www.amazon.com/Matcha-Green-Tea-Powder-10/dp/B001F10XUU/ref=sr_1_3?s=grocery&ie=UTF8&qid=1318386697&sr=1-3

I don't know if this will be of help, but these are the journals I have read, I originally lumped them all together for someone else. Arteaga, A. 1974. “The Nutritional Status of Latin American Adults.” In Nutrition and Agricultural Development, ed. N. S. Scrimshaw and B. Moises, pp. 67–76. New York: Plenum Press.…

Is it wrong to promote accurate information? I've gathered for you every study I've read over the years. Feel free, it only took me several years to have found and read through it all. Arteaga, A. 1974. “The Nutritional Status of Latin American Adults.” In Nutrition and Agricultural Development, ed. N. S. Scrimshaw and B.…

You realize the information found in this is based on one, highly discredited resource http://bja.oxfordjournals.org/content/85/1/69.full.pdf+html If you must take that as your evidence, very well, its your body.
-
Try this, consume how ever many calories you feel you need to, but eliminate the carbs that cause your insulin to increase. I lose about 7-10 lbs a month following only that, no exercise required.
-
I beg to differ. Insulin prevents the metabolization of body fat. It is what is responsible for locking fat into triglycerides that are too big to leave your fat cells. Your body burns carbs first because they are toxic to you if the amount of glucose produced raises your total blood sugar to more than 5 grams.
-
No, I understand your ideal, but I am not your typical "poser" poster. Like I said, the information is out there. Feel free to go over it yourself, you sound like you should be able to tell the difference.

On the drug: Most people takephentermine for 3-6 weeks; the length of treatment depends on how you respond to the medication. Phentermine can be habit-forming. Do not take a larger dose, take it more often, or take it for a longer period than your doctor tells you to. My opinion: false advertising, people think they are…

You'd be surprised, feel free to follow whatever rules you feel will be healthy. However this is what studies show. Most of the recent "shedding of light" on this topic is proving to unravel what I already have. Just take a look, its in a book ;) actually several.

You can increase your butt muscle mass, but it might not turn out quite as you might hope. To be honest, from a technical perspective, the cause for womanly curves are due to a combination of LPL and Estrogen. LPL in women is usually more active in the butt and breasts, causing fat to accumulate there. Estrogen acts as an…

A good carb is one that does not raise your insulin. So, as an example, fiber is a carb that does not raise your insulin. Technicaly speaking, any carbohydrate molecule that is too big to fit through your cell walls will be fine. This is the principal artificial sweeteners use to be sweet, yet not cause problems for…

I do, though it doesn't work in every circumstance. In cooking it is known as sour salt, and some even sell it under this label. Check out some ideas here: http://www.ehow.com/how_5627012_cook-sour-salt.html

I'd be happy to share my input for any specific questions. I've spent quite a few years studying nutrition, and have over a decade of experience in chemistry, physics and biology.
