I've read some books that mention that the thyroid slows down on severe carb restriction (these weren't from the Low Fat camp). Obviously it doesn't happen for everyone, but I often wonder if it happens to some people due to complex hormonal reasons that we can't even begin to understand. LOL, the more I read, the less I know, it seems.

I'm beginning to like this idea. The "Mad Scientist" in me is excited, actually.
