CHICAGO - Older women who ate less fat and more carbohydrates lost about 2 pounds over seven years, a large study showed.
While one obesity expert called the results disappointing, the lead author of the research said it refutes claims by promoters of the Atkins and Zone diets that low-fat diets are partly behind America's obesity epidemic.
Full story here.
I'm not sure what they were trying to prove, but if it's the merits of a high carb diet, they seem to have failed. Of course the results were disappointing. High carb is not good for the body, and some people are more sensitive than others (like me).
Another review of this study can be found in Jimmy's blog. He did a way better job than me.
