The low fat diet is one that I’ve spent a lot of time on recently. While low fat is good in theory, there are some instances where this may not be a good idea.

(Keep in mind, regardless of my thoughts here, 60-80% fat as calories in your diet is not a good idea at all…)

I also answer questions about lucuma, why raw nuts cost so much, green smoothies, and alkaloids in plant foods.

Take a look…

Apparently, they had to stop a clinical trial on agave nectar and diabetics because it was causing “severe side effects”.

This is big news that pokes some holes in the “it’s low glycemic, so it must be good for diabetics” theories out there.

I also answer questions about lakanto, lucuma, xylitol and allergies to stevia today!

Take a look and PASS THIS ON! :-)
