About book The Art And Science Of Low Carbohydrate Living: An Expert Guide To Making The Life-Saving Benefits Of Carbohydrate Restriction Sustainable And Enjoyable (2011)
This book turned my years' learning at HSPH upside-down, along with the cherished Food Pyramid. It is well-written in a semi-scholarly semi-self-help fashion but without the usual nauseating advocacy through anecdotes. The main points are made through peer-reviewed published research. I can't judge its scientific merits (not being an expert in this field) nor know how its principle would apply to my individual situation, but I applaud its clear and concise education on various metabolic issues. I am still digesting its diametrically different conclusion from the governmental sponsored main-stream dietary guideline. This book needs to be reviewed next year. Notes May 2014. The most complete, cogent, assessment of the medical literature regarding low-carbohydrate diets I have ever read. Drs. Phinney and Volek are two of the world experts on the topic having down a vast majority of the research to date. The book not only explains the physiology and value of low carb diets, but also clearly shows the flaws in research that have led to the misconception that fat is bad for you and high carb diets are not. I have known Dr. Phinney personnally for many years and always turn to him when I need help understanding what to do to help my patients. If you want to know why we have an obesity epidemic in the United States and what to do about, this book is a must read.
