Reader S Digest Diet
They even include some tips on low-carb dieting. The one thing I
disagree with is a statement attributed to Dr. Eric Westman (this is
unusual, as Dr. Westman is one of the true lights in the low-carb world,
and in general I'm in total agreement with him) that "To lose weight,
most people have to stay under 20 grams of net carbs per day". I'm
guessing Dr. Westman says this because so many of the people he sees
have metabolisms which are pretty damaged. In the general population,
people talk about losing weight with a fair amount more carb. After
all, some people can lose weight on the Zone diet, with 40%
carbohydrate. It all depends upon how damaged the person's metabolism
already is.
Do I think the Reader's Digest is improving in its science and nutrition reporting? Although time will tell, I tend to doubt it. More likely, it's the "even a broken clock is correct twice a day" syndrome. I'd love to be proved wrong, though!
