There are books promoting low fat and of course low carb, but are there any that explain how both might apply and the nuances?

I'm IR and am trying to figure out my optimal woe, then develop the right habit. The last thing I want to do is make things worse!


Denise Minger introduced her explanation of why both VLC and VLF can work in her book, Death by Food Pyramid and has explored in the years since further on her blog. The Oct 2015 post In Defense of Fat, Part 1 kicked it off and she still hasn't written part 2. Don't worry, each of her blog posts are the length of a book...she explains it in depth. That post even has a clickable table of contents, but one simple graphic shows "magic" under 10% fat and "different magic" over 65% fat. Can also watch her talk at AHS she mentions.
