I really hate it that carbs are described as having the same level or more of addiction as cocaine. I mean do you really get the shakes, start vomiting etc... when you forgo a plate of spaghetti. That being said, I think carbs do mess up your system (I think for some more than others).

You are right. The author indulged in hyperbole.

Try going off carbs cold turkey. You will be very surprised how bad you feel(check with your doctor first).
