"I'm part of the obesity establishment," said Dr. Foster, who has published more than 50 scientific papers on the subject. "I've spent my life researching ways to treat obesity, and 100 per cent of them have been low-fat and high-carb. Now I'm beginning to think it isn't as it has appeared."
I'm always impressed by people who can admit they were wrong. Kudos to Dr. Foster!

The Atkins camp argues that saturated fat is bad only if eaten with large amounts of carbohydrates.
I think this is the first article about low-carb that has gotten this point right. They usually just point to fat consumption on Atkins without mentioning that fat consumed without carbs has a different effect that fat consumed with carbs.

Great article! Thanks for posting.
