[quote]Eventually we’re going to come to a point where these morons have made it impossible to get beef, eggs, and other quality food. When this happens, I’m moving to an island, raising my own super grass fed cows (they live in the middle of the island), and wild boars as well a variety of chickens and veggies. I will lead boar hunts in the middle of the night.
You can only come if are capable of killing the boar with a reverse choke hold or an awesome kick to its face thus not bruising any of the meat. You all can come to my island. [/quote]
Will there be hot women in skimpy clothing on the Island, and will the climate be tropical? If so count me in. I’ll go practice my boar choke hold right away.

The women are required to go on the hunt in string bikinis (with minimal support), running. I don’t care if they kill anything or not, women in string bikinis running with minimal support through the woods is great no matter what. And yes, it must be tropical, with a nice sea-breeze. And the women have palm tree fans.

I wish I could read the actual study and not just someone’s condensed interpretation. I am suspicious as to how strict the ‘low-carb’ diet they had them on was since it’s obvious many of them were eating forms of breads, rice and alcohol. [/quote]
This woman has a nice breakdown of the study on her blog.

Thanks for the link. I had my suspicions as to what qualified a ‘low-carb’ diet to those conducting the study and the tables she provided pretty well confirmed what a joke their standards were. For those who don’t want to read them: Even those “most in compliance” with the ‘low-carb’ diet were still eating, on average, 35-37% of their daily calories from carbs. I guess this could be considered low-carb if you’re using the lovely USDA guidelines. If I remember my shitty nutrition class correctly I think they say 60%-ish of calories should be from carbs.

lol, this reminds me of my high school football coach.
he had to lose weight last year or he would be fired. he came on day and told us he was doing an “atkins-type” diet. i asked him what he ate, it was still over 50%carbs. i was thinking that if this is near-atkins to him, what did he usually eat.

They had over 120 000 female nurses fill out questionnaires every two years for 26 years and over 50 000 male health professionals fill out questionnaires every four years for 20 years. Then they divided them in deciles based on where they got their macro nutrients. Low-carb vegetable diets apparently get over 40% of their calories from carbs, and get a full serving of fruit/vegetables more than low-carbohydrate animal eaters per day.

Well, I’ll give them props for following this over such a long period, it’s not like you can do that in the lab. But agree that their standards are a joke. Plus, you know that people lie on the questionnaires.
