We should question everything, what makes the medicare local dietician an expert?
When European nation's and some of the world top cardiologists are turning around and saying that Hi Carb and Low Fat is the reason for the increase in disease (disease in general), then shouldn't we question the Medicare Local dietician?
Dr Timothy Noakes was told he was either close to diabetic or was diabetic (I dont recall) and he's a pretty fit guy, he was told to go high carb and low fat. Thats what he wrote about in The Lore of Running, he promoted high card and low fat. Now he's turned around and said he was wrong, after experimenting with high fat and low carb diets on himself. He's now re-writing the chapter I believe and is also starting to look further into the possibility that a certain amount of people on this earth may be intolerant to grains.

If you look at the increase in heart disease and disease, it's simply started to grow around the time that high carb and low fat came into play. And if you look into the history of high carb and low fat you actually begin to find that there was no research done, there was however more money behind the guy who said, "High Carb and Low Fat" apart from the other guy who said, "Low Carb and High Fat."

Anyone else apart from me know vegans and vegetarians who have beat cancer? I do. I know people who have given up sugar and beaten cancer, so to me, if giving up sugar and processed foods can help you beat cancer, then I'm gonna question every single doctor who says to me high carb and low fat are the way to go.
