everywhere i look, atkins.

is it just me or does it seem rather rediculous? i just feel like cutting sugars out of your diet, the one energy synthesis pathway that has been refined and preserved for millions of years, is a bad idea. of course it’s going to cut your weight, to keep your blood sugar level up, your body has to get it from reserves in your body. you gotta have sugar in your blood, because its the only energy source your brain can utilize.

i don’t know, it works, and yet it can’t possibly be good for your body, it just seems like it would be such a system shock. i mean, a diet where you can’t eat fruit because it has fructose, or drink milk because it has lactose? or eat rice because and pasta because it has too many complex carbohydrates? what kind of diet would keep you from eating healthy things and substituting it with such things as bacon, chicken and ranch wraps? it just doesn’t make sense…eh, we’ll see 40 years from now or somethign i suppose.

i did find it interesting to read about florida having a bumber crop of oranges but no where to sell them because you can’t eat fruit on low-carb diets, what a shame
