Amazon.com: Customer Reviews: Why We Get Fat: And What to Do About It: "People are different. People who are insulin resistant have a greater problem with carbs. People with fewer LDL receptors have a greater problem with saturated fat. People with the APOE4 allele are more likely to have problems with both. The Cordain Paleo diet, the Ornish diet and the Mediterranean diet all have less high GI carbs and less saturated fat than most Americans eat and they are all good for heart disease. The list of foods in the Appendix of WWGE only reduces carbs, while increasing saturated fat. It makes sense that the more risk factors you reduce the better results you will get.

The real reason why libertarians become climate-deniers | Talking Philosophy


The obsession of libertarians with individual liberty crowds out the value of truth. In the end, their thinking becomes voluntaristic and contrarian for the sake of it. They end up believing simply what they WANT to believe. And, as explained above, they don't WANT to accept the truths of ecology, of climate science, etc. . And so they deny them.

Forks Over Knives: The Latest Vegan Nonsense Dissected, Debunked and Destroyed « AnthonyColpo


There was war-time rationing in Europe alright, and it involved a whole bunch of foodstuffs along with animal products. So we're faced with the same shonky extrapolation issue I just discussed a few moments ago; namely, using a multifactorial intervention to disingenuously sing the praises of a single intervention.

In the case of Norway, here are some of the potentially confounding changes recorded in the literature:

  • Cod liver oil became a standard addition to war-time diets…hmmm…more omega-3s, vitamin D and vitamin A! Gee, that wouldn't have had any possible confounding effect on CVD would it, now? Naaah…
  • Fish intake increased greatly (those omega-3′s again…)
  • Intake of skim milk was higher throughout the war than before it.
  • Added fats like margarine and butter declined.
  • Intake of sugar declined markedly.
  • Overall calorie intake went down. Anyone down for some weight loss-induced reductions in CVD?

And to top it all off, Denise reminds us that a rise in infectious disease mortality may in fact be the real reason behind the wartime drop in CVD deaths. It's pretty safe to say you won't die of CHD if tuberculosis kills you first…
