I can't believe they're still missing the mark - the fact that in the absence of carbs, the fat/heart disease model falls apart.


I agree. What baffles me a bit, though, is how the epileptic children that they studied on ketogenic diets (high fat, low carb) could have elevated triglycerides and lowered HDL. Unless, of course, their parents were feeding them margarine thinking that it was still fat and better than butter?
