Re: Excellent Article 2 Days Ago in the Chicago Tribune
If that's true, then lower the carbs and sugar so that they don't interfere with the benefits of the fat.
From the Harvard University School of Public Health
Carbohydrates and Blood Sugar
"When people eat a food containing carbohydrates, the digestive system breaks down the digestible ones into sugar, which enters the blood."
"Carbohydrate metabolism is important in the development of type 2 diabetes, which occurs when the body can’t make enough insulin or can’t properly use the insulin it makes."
"In a large meta-analysis of 24 prospective cohort studies, researchers concluded that people who consumed lower-glycemic load diets were at a lower risk of developing type 2 diabetes than those who ate a diet of higher-glycemic load foods. A similar type of meta-analysis concluded that higher-glycemic load diets were also associated with an increased risk for coronary heart disease events."
