We’ve been eating so much in carbs, that what is considered “Low Carb” is really “Normal Carb”, it’s putting things back to where they should be.

The vilification of “carbs” has reached such extreme proportions that it has become insane. In a normal healthy diet... carbohydrates should be the source of most of your calories. We know many people who intentionally eat basically only protein and fat. Despite all the Atkin’s adherents you find everywhere... my wife and I have seen the devastating effect this has on peoples’ health when adhered to for an extended period of time. Eating too much protein is bad for your kidneys especially, but also has many other negative consequences. They often loose weight, but in every case we know they have ALWAYS gained it back again within a short time after returning to a normal and sustainable diet.
