>>"the good carbs that i eat have tons of phytos that fat-foods just don't have."

Why are you still under the impression that we DON'T eat good carbs loaded with phytos? We just choose ones with little to no sugar or starch.

>>"my fear for you guys, is simply the AMOUNT that you eat."

I'm not clear on what your point was here: are you referring to saturated fat's reputation as being "artery clogging?" Study of the fat in artery clogs states that more than half is polyunsaturated. Only about 26% is saturated. (Felton, C V, et al, Lancet, 1994, 344:1195)

>>"if we do not get enough sugar in our diet, our body needs to break down our much-needed protein"

Correct only when someone consumes insufficient amounts of protein. Most LCers consume ample amounts.

Sorry, but the conclusion I draw is still "eat sufficient protein, fat, and minimally-impacting carbs."
