Very good!

yipeeee!!!

Most would say it's "purely anecdotal." I think it's past time to practice "evidence-based medicine" :idea:
|
Put Ornish in jail. No, seriously. Giving that kind of advice considering the consequence is criminal. Good for Dr. Davis to have caught it in time.
|
Yeah, I did the Ornish woe eating for months, felt terrible, gained a little weight had GI issues, was crabby, and my family hated me :nono: THis reminds me I need to get rid of the books I have by him.
|
Ornish would say that he simply didn't cut enough fat out.
I like Dr. Davis comment further below, responding to someone who had good results with Ornish Quote:
I think we need to remind ourselves over and over that we are not all carbon copies of each other and that different people respond in different ways. Maybe that's one of the reason why so little progress has been made in understand the causes of obesity and disease. This difference in responses is not accounted for in various studies. |

I've read here and there that his program includes meditation, and that any reduction in heart disease may result from stress reduction. I've never read Orishes books - but is that true? Does he put emphasis on stress reduction? |

Yup. I think changing people's diet from the typical diet is probably a good thing. I mean, if you follow Ornish correctly you probably reduce your carbs if you're eating standard American fare, so it might well help some people over what they were doing before. But better doesn't mean optimal. |
I've never read Ornish, but from the emphasis on eating more grains and less sugar that typical "healthy" diets have, I would expect that it involves eating less fructose.

Yes. That's what I DO like about his program. I have one book called Love & Survival; The scientific basis for the healing power of intimacy which I do plan on keeping, I haven't read it yet though. |
