Just my opinion, but the Center for Science in the Public Interest is
only a center. It doesn't have anything to do with science. And they
aren't much concerned with the interest of the public. It is a very
narrowly focused special interest group intent on promoting the
vegetarian life style and turning back the progress of capitalism.
But like I said, that is just my opinion.


looked at the website and it isn't particularly loonie. Mind you they

could
be awfully embarassed if eating too much carbohydrade does turn out to be
the problem


If you consider what man ate most of our time on earth as hunter gatherers
it would be low in carbohydrates. Grain faming is only 10,000 or so years
old and Eskimos, lap landers, Mongiains, Bedouins, and all the drovers of
the world still subsist on diet nearly devoid of carbohydrates.

As may rapidly spread along the coast lines of the world we find their trash
heaps filled with shell fish, and fruit. I can still feed my self an my
family in the degrade coastal lands of the US an be home my lunch most days.
Oysters in particular a easy to catch. They are very poor at escape.

My dad an it went back to the Texas gulf coast 40 years after my first trip
there and the fishing was the best ever. They have band gill nets, and
commercial fishing inshore and put on reasonable slot limit and there are
more and bigger fish than i have seen the th 40 years I fished there. It was
a great trip for my dads last one.

Carbohydrates are a late addition to our diets. I expect our bodies can
handle them in reasonable amounts but I wouldn't want to live on them
exclusively with out a very very good nutritioalist to help me with
essential fatty acids and proteins, vitamins and other yet to be found food
factors. Consider alfalfa hay. The best studied forage on earth. You can
dream up any ration you want and replacing 2% of the roughage with alfalfa
hay will make it a better feed.
