Calories Don't Count by Dr. Herman Taller, M.D. 1961

Who say's that history does not matter?  Many times one has to think about the past in order to move ahead in life without it, there is no way I could've reverse my corpulence.  The past always counts, here's a few fabulous books from the past.  The Physiology of Taste 1825, Letter on Corpulence 1864, Eat Fat and Grow Slim 1958, Calories Don't Count 1961, Life Without Bread 1967, The Doctor's Quick Weight Loss Diet 1978, Enter The Zone 1995, Sugar Busters 1998, The South Beach Diet 2003.  

"All advocate an alternative hypothesis: That carbohydrates are the problem, not fat, and if we eat less of them, we will weigh less and live longer."  (Good Calories, Bad Calories 2007)
Hypothesis:  1. A proposal intended to explain certain facts or observations.  2. A tentative insight into the natural world; a concept that is not yet verified but that if true would explain certain facts or phenomena.

March 1984

We have been lied to and continue to be lied to, about what is healthy for us, so there is no time to spare or waste, because we have to unlearn the cultural conditioning that was fed to us about what is a healthy diet (low fat high carbohydrate).  I personally have cut out the carbohydrates and am working to master my ketogenic diet. I am also giving fruits a break with the exception of some blueberries and strawberries in small amounts.     
The results of a drug trial are translated into the message that fatty foods will cause heart disease.

Here are my top five book picks. Why We Get Fat and Good Calories Bad Calories by Mr. Taubes, Fat Chance by Dr. Lustig, Excitotoxins by Dr. Blaylock, and Wheat Belly by Dr. Davis.  These books and the authors who wrote these books have been a mayor part of my food journey and because of them I now understand things like  Visceral Fat, Metabolic Syndrome, Glycation just to name a few.  I known without the understand of visceral fat, metabolic syndrome and glycation I wouldn't have been able to reverse my type 2 diabetes or my corpulence (the property of excessive fatness).  Visceral fat how learning about this dangerous in-err fat can create high blood pressure along with chronic inflammation and metabolic disturbances.  Glycation sugar and carbohydrates, how sugar and carbohydrates bind with varies protein molecules slowing damaging the vascular systems and accelerating aging. In life  you sometimes you have to take the road least traveled, or in my case create your own road too travel on, food journey with Raul.
