Re: Why calorie restricted diets are so dangerous

One is free indeed to say what they want, and still be offering bunck and
horse puckies, still. When confrounted with the scientific research to
show that in a controlled setting a decrease in calories results in a loss
in weight, as you demanded be shown to exist, you started on your now
familiar/sad rant that the food industry/universities have a conspiracy to
cook, pun intended, research which shows calories are bhe basis for one's
weight status. With this new tact you continued to maintain that the
concensus on the topic was all a matter of old wife tales among
medical/nutrition folk and there is no evidence to show it.

As mentioned recently in a recent thread, you do not read and comprehend
well what is written you, I have never advocated a low fat diet and I have
in fact detaled what I do suggest any number of times and you replied to
those posts in many instances. "Studies" is too strong a word for what
you often post, I used to post specific information that one can find
using scientific related search enjines in response to your rants, no more
because it soon became clear it a fool's errand because you do not have
much exprience with science, know how to interpret research and offer
nothing in return but retoric and rephrasing of diet book authors and
other such as your best effort. While rejecting it so strongly in past it
is now intresting and amusing this more recent attempt to remanufacture
yourself in a scientific mode and whose views are now such that we will
just to have to agree to disagree based on your grasp of the relevant
research on some topic. Bunk and horse puckies.

I can say that the studies that I presented were eityer absent of any
conflicts of interest or they stated theirs up front. That, in my
opinion, makes them much more relevant than the majority of the studies
that you low fatters have presented. regardless of the number, size,
length or any other such factor.
