Default Can't do without meat

Well, I'd be one of the ones who couldn't without meat. Besides, the one thing they didn't report is what happened to the HDL? In the studies I've seen, HDL is lowered without meat (i.e. saturated fat).

Plus, where are they getting their vitamin B12? The only place to get that is meat too.

This reporting is very thin. And of course, they didn't dare compare it to a truly balanced maintenance low-carb diet that supplies plenty of protein and fat from animal sources.
