She said even one of the most popular fad diets - low carb, high protein - actually makes it harder to lose weight.


Fad Diet? Over 30 years of success and it's a fad. I'll tell you what will be considerd a fad 100 years from now....low fat high carb.

Many people don't realize or just won't accept that they are largely genetically bound to their shape and size, said Davis, adding that genes are 80 per cent responsible for setting a person's weight.


Sorry Rhonda, genes are more likely 80 per cent responsible for you insulin reaction to carbs. Somehow I doubt there were very many heavy people 10,000 years ago, before agriculture, not nearly enough time for there to be an evolutionary change to have genes that just cause you to be plain old fat for no reason.
