This was then a controlled calories experiment also. It says nothing about what would have happened if the animals were allowed to eat all that they wanted of the low-GI carbs.

Ah good point...
This is all nice and good in the lab, but I bet the low GI mice were still pretty hungry  . Probably not as bad as the quasi-diabetic, obese, CHD predisposed high GI group though, poor little guys  .
This is the problem with these kinds of nutritional experiments. They compare only two options, with the assumption that "the answer" can only be one of those two. The experiments are false, because there are more options, specifically a diet which is low GI as well as controlled carb. |
