By now, the low-carb diet’s refrain is a familiar one: “Bread is bad for you. Fat doesn’t matter. Carbs are the real reason you can’t lose weight.”
The low-carb universe Dr. Atkins brought into being continues to expand. Low-carb diets, from South Beach to The Zone and beyond, are still the go-to method for weight loss for millions. These diets’ marketing may differ, but they all share two crucial components: the condemnation of “carbs” and an emphasis on meat and fat for calories. Even the latest diet trend, the Paleo diet, is—despite its increased focus on some whole foods—just another variation on the same carbohydrate fears.
In The Low-Carb Fraud, longtime leader in the nutritional science field T. Colin Campbell outlines where and how the low-carb proponents get it wrong: where the belief came from that carbohydrates are bad and why it persists despite all the evidence to the contrary. The foods we misleadingly refer to as “carbs” aren’t all created equal, and treating them that way has major consequences for our nutritional well-being.
If you’re considering a low-carb diet, read this book first. It will change the way you think about what you eat—and how you should be eating to lose weight and optimize your health, now and for the long term.

Känns lite lamt när slutsatser bygger på forskningsfusk. Han refererar tex till Ancel Keys "7 country study" som utgör ca 30% av originalstudien (21-22 länder) där man handplockat data för att krysta fram det resultat man vill ha.Han hänvisar även till The China Study där bl.a Denise Minger har visat att man gjort samma handplockning och sållning av data för att få animaliska produkter att se dåliga ut. Jag trodde han skulle komma med något intressant om low carb, men det kändes som att han mest bekräftar nyttorna för att sedan försöka sänka kostråden med ej underbyggda personlia påståenden typ "ja, LC har bevisats bra för det och det, men det är inte bra i längden (punkt)." Ok, men varför inte? Inte så jag vill få mina "bevis" presenterade.

Värdelös. Refererar till forskning som bevisats vara manipulerad flera gånger om. Sorgligt att böcker med bevisat felaktiga teser får publiceras

och LCHF kanske är baserad på köttälskarens önsketänkande?
