Nutritionists and Low Carb
I have talked to two Registered Dieticians about low carb recently and they both had the same reaction, that it is absolutely the worst way to eat. I attribute that to their education, which is all based on American Dietetics/Diabetics research (funded by interested concerns) and the almighty Governmental Food Pyramid. Egads!
My own primary care physician, through my HMO, recommended that I start restricting carbs(sugar/flour - not vegies) to get healthy.
This is not the same doctor that I had already previously paid a lot of money to, who told me the same thing a few years ago, when I had lost 100 pounds.
Doctors say one thing, nutrionists another. Everyone has their own opinion about what everyone else should be eating. Very frustrating, to say the least.
I say, go with what works and what makes you feel good. The test results will speak for themselves.
