Cool article, just too bad they didn't do seperate studies for suger and fats,

instead of lumping them together like they were kin.

hmmmm, could this be why headaches, moods, ADHD, etc come on so fast:

" ....They found that in less than 24 hours the gut's microbial populations

changed abruptly.... "

The Gut Response To What We Eat

A new study suggests that a high-fat and high-sugar diet can dramatically affect

the microbes living in your gut.

A high-fat, high-sugar diet can quickly and dramatically change the population

of microbes living in the digestive tract, according... ..

I didn't listen to the program and just scanned the article. Did they specify

what kind of fat? Fat means something different to the mainstream and scientist

than it does to us native nutrition eaters. When I think of fat, I think of

lard but the picture showed a doughnut which implies transfats. I don't think I

can take this seriously. The sad part is many people will.

Whenever someone has heart disease, they say it's because of fat. In all these

anti-fat years I have yet to hear that someone died of a high-sugar diet. In

other words, people never " eat too much sugar " . Living people are instructed

not to eat " too much " sugar, and never, when somebody dies, that was too much.

The occasional article, like this one, which discusses the demerits of sugar,

has to throw fat in too! Of course the old- and new-style pyramids placed them

in the tip together as " eat sparingly " . That doesn't mean they couldn't ONCE

say sugar causes damage without fat to assist it.

It even gets perpetuated by contributors to WAPF. One of the columnists under

" following in his footsteps " thought it makes you fat unless you exercise it

off.

to blame fat again! First, they start with the assumption that fat will make

you fat, as in " a healthy low-fat plant based mouse chow " . I'ts already been

disproven in research that fat does not make you fat unless you eat it in

excess, but it keeps getting perpetuated by poor science and the media anyway.

Unfortunately I don't think this type of research will come to much good. The

recent lawsuit against Danon for false advertising over their b.l. regularis is

just the tip of the ice berg as big food starts to tinker with our guts.

This type of research is going to lead to GMO probiotics, anti-obesity

antibiotics and lord know what else.

Obesity is caused by too much carbohydrate. " Everyone " knew this from the middle

of the 19th to the middle of the 20th century. Too much carbohydrate results in

insulin levels that are too high. Insulin is the fat storage hormone. When

insulin levels are above a certain levels, the body cannot take fat out of

storage. The key solving the obesity problem is to lower people's insulin

levels.

Heart disease is caused by inadequate collagen production in the vascular

system. Collagen gives arteries strength. Atherosclerosis is an adaptation to

this problem. It as an alternative method of strengthen arteries. Fresh meat

provides hydroxlysine and hydroyproline, the building blocks of collagen. This

is why it cures and prevents scurvy. Ascorbic acid can be used to produce

hydroxlysine and hydroxyproline so it is another mechanism to prevent

atherosclerosis (and scurvy). Glucose competes with ascorbic acid so sugar is a

major cause of heart disease. Polyunsaturated fatty acids is another major cause

because it produces free radicals which damage the collagen-poor arteries.
