Low carb (Atkins) diet curbs epilepsy - John Hopkins

This is VERY interesting

The more I dig into this stuff, the more interesting it gets.

Here's the inside scoop - the "food pyramid" is being revised by the USDA in 2005. Forget about all those many "healthy" bread servings, they'll be cut in half, maybe more if some folks get their way. However, the bread council and bakeries are not loafing around either but are heating up.

It's beginning to look a bit like the bread industry is related to the tobacco industry - complete with encouraging what they knew was too high consumption, making lots of folks obese, all in the pursuit of lotsa dough. ;-)

We're meat eaters and our bodies are wired to be carnivores - the further we remove ourselves from pure protein - the more our bodies suffer. Of course this sounds primitive and un-pc, but I read these things and I can hear Robert Mitchum calling out, "Beef! It's what's for dinner."

;-)

Give me steak over toast any day.
