Oh for Godssakes. They can't make an anti-low-carb case based on high cholesterol. They tried and failed to make one based on kidney damage. They tried (and failed again) to make the case that you lose muscle on low carb. They tried to make the case that it will make you impotent. Now, they're saying that it will make you depressed.

I have not seen this in my experience. Nor has my wife. Nor has any of our 3-4 friends on it, nor has my mother, who went on it after Christmas. It flies in the face of all experience I've had.

And, as our ace posters have said, the good doctor has an agenda. Too bad the lazy-assed reporters who wrote this tripe weren't inclined to Google a bit and find that agenda. Clearly the research was both flawed and biased.

When will papers stop publishing crap by people with an agenda? You can get anything in the paper if you try, these days, and you can get it there unchallenged, apparently.
