There was no mention of the Atkins diet in the original post and neither he nor his diet are in any way relevant to the original post including comparatively. The original post was about the American Heart Association's recommend diet and based on what happened to those monkeys, it may not be the best for you. Humans have only had easy access to things like table sugar and ground flour for about 100 years give or take - there's quite a few millennia of evolution prior to that where we ate fats and protein with minimal carbs and certainly no fast digesting ones. Even veggie things like avocados and coconuts have high fat content including saturated fat. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:334700 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/unsubscribe.cfm
