Can this really be true.I cant believe that people would even be able to eat this way......eggs dripping in lard.Auggggg
Would we feed our children this way?
They say that this is the new way to stay healthy and fit.
My opinion is.....there is always one nutty doc in the crowd.


Cygirl, can you be more specific, please? Which diet specifically are you referring to? Keckwick? Fat fast? Neither of those were intended to be a long term WOE.
While high fat (no transfats) paired with low carbs shouldn't pose a problem, high fat paired with high carbs, especially highly refined carbs poses a great health risk.
Would I feed my kids eggs dripping in lard? Probably not. But I would feed them eggs fried in butter (and frequently do).
