]]> Comment on Should your grandma be worried about cholesterol? by Graeme Marsh http://graememarsh.com/fitness/cholesterol_elderly_women/#comment-12 Graeme Marsh Fri, 11 Nov 2011 08:05:00 +0000 http://graememarsh.com/?p=462#comment-12 Hey Tommo, glad you like it! Yup, it is amusing that medics are still advising (in some cases) the kinds of diet for people that are likely to have an entirely opposite effect. It is also interesting how narrow minded the view on cholesterol is, despite the evidence that LOW cholesterol has strong links to everything from depression to cancer.  Hey Tommo, glad you like it!

]]> Comment on The House of Lords to save us from obesity? Maybe not… by Graeme http://graememarsh.com/fitness/the-house-of-lords-to-save-us-from-obesity-maybe-not/#comment-9 Graeme Sun, 09 Oct 2011 20:15:00 +0000 http://graememarsh.com/?p=442#comment-9 I would agree Phil. Taubes work is comprehensive and in some places brilliant but there are some holes there.  Questionable use of old self-reporting data and mostly anecdotal work to back up his dismissal of exercise to name but two. He is also rather quick to dismiss any emotional/psychological factors, preferring to consider them only as consequential and in no way causative. George Bray did an interesting review of it http://www.proteinpower.com/drmike/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/bray-review-of-gcbc.pdf So, is it what you eat or how much of it you eat that makes a difference? Strong evidence would suggest that for SOME it can make a far bigger impact on weight loss when the composition and not simply the quantity of the diet is considered. P.S good to be back too!!  I would agree Phil.

Surely 'eating too many fattening carbs' as Taubes would have you believe is equally as oversimplistic and incorrect as 'calories in, calories out' Good to see you blogging again Graeme.
