Back in the beginning of 2004 Clinton did go on the South Beach diet and maybe he did lose some weight on it:

Bill Clinton Following 'South Beach Diet'

But less than a year later:

"In September 2004, Clinton received a quadruple bypass surgery.[225] In March 2005, he underwent surgery for a partially collapsed lung.[226] On February 11, 2010, he was rushed to Columbia Presbyterian Hospital in New York City after complaining of chest pains, and had two coronary stents implanted in his heart.[225][227] After this experience, Clinton adopted the plant-based whole foods (vegan) diet recommended by doctors Dean Ornish and Caldwell Esselstyn.[228]"

Doesn't sound like his low-carb South Beach diet was a screaming success.

On his plant-based diet he says he lost about 24 pds:

---"The so called "Paleo advocates" in the goofy video about "obesity experts" are not Paleo advocates. In fact, one of them was a fruitarian advocate."

I called them Paleo advocates. Call them anti-sugar or lower-carb advocates if you like. Who was the fruitarian warning about high-carbs?


---"Quite frankly, most of the vegan gurus that are selling their books, look emaciated."

Wait, in your recent diet crusade you've been posting quotes that say carbs and Sugar will make you obese. How come all those low-fat diet gurus look "emaciated"?

---"Most fats are not allowed in the Paleo CrossFit eating plan, and it's not low carb, relatively speaking. It's 40-30-30"

Well regular Paleo recommends a 20-15-65 ratio, so good to see Crossfit Paleo understands you need more carbs for athletic performance.


---"“Caloric Restriction” is another fruitful area for Internet search. The CrossFit prescription is consistent with this research.

Crossfit recommends higher-fat and calorie-restriction, the two biggest diet problems I find here at CureZone.


---"The CrossFit prescription allows a reduced caloric intake and yet still provides ample nutrition for rigorous activity. "

The body runs on calories, not vitamins or minerals. The more rigorous activity, the more calories you need for fuel.

But I agree that if you eat a diet of a lot of animal fat and protein (i.e. toxic foods), eating less on it is better.
