Interesting. I think this news was all over today. Maybe it will lead to more studies. I did not have a chance to see the actual percentages of their "low carb - high protein diet" Anybody know? |

Liv, they put the mice on three different diets. A typical mouse diet (65% carbohydrate, 15% fat, 20% protein), a typical "Western" diet (43% carbohydrate, 42% fat, 15% protein) and a low-carbohydrate, high-protein diet (12% carbohydrate, 43% fat, 45% protein). I just printed the study and I'll read it tonight.

Oh, and I hope no one having a rough time with their WOE plans going off Atkins today because of this study. Take some time to read the study first and then make an informed decision. You need an hour to read the whole paper and your low-carb woe won't do you any harm in that one hour.

What a shock!! Mice do best on a mouse diet. I would love to know if the carbohydrates in the typical mouse diet are the refined carbs we humans eat so liberally.

When I saw this thread I thought it's spam and ran here quickly to ban someone.  Erin, I'm not sure if it's the ice cream season or what, but lately everyone seems to freak out about low carb diets. I think I finally understand what Obama meant by "wee-weed up".

What I don't understand is why they don't realize how much better off they would be if they spent that time and energy actually making improvements rather than attempting to tear down that which has done so much good for so many.
