Has anybody else read the book Why We Get Fat by Gary Taubes? He very convincingly argues for an alternative hypothesis of weight maintenance that turns conventionally wisdom on its head. He argues that the reason we gain or lose fat isn?t simply because calories in are greater or less than calories expended, but that macronutrient composition, specifically the quality and quantity of carbohydrates we consume, controls our accumulation of fat. He backs his arguments with modern science and relevant science from a few decades ago and states that the nutritional advice of the recent decades has been at odds with observed reality.
