Well, yet another scare-mongering article that would have one believe that a low-carb diet consists of gorging oneself with absolutely nothing but meats, eggs and cheese.
Since adopting a "normal-carb" diet (as I prefer to call it) back in April, I have dropped over 80 pounds off my body. Furthermore, I have never eaten so many vegetables and berries in my life. As well as yogurt, nuts, olive oil and other all-natural products. Yeah, I also eat meat, eggs and cheese. So what. Fact is, my health has never been better and I am at a level of fitness I have not been at since I was in my early 20s.
Here is a list of foods I gave up to go on my "normal-carb" diet: Candy, pastries, cookies, frozen foods, pies, chips, high fructose corn syrup, hydrogenated vegetable oils, fried foods, fast foods, and sugar-sweetened drinks.
Is this article implying that I should start eating those foods again in order to have a "balanced" diet in line with that Kelloggs-Nabisco food pyramid?
