But coming right out and saying that excess body fat causes metabolic syndrome... I was so taken aback by that one statement that I had to read it a couple of times to be sure I read it right.


I agree that this is putting the cart ahead of the horse.

In addition, it was only last year that I considered bigger impacts on my weight than just carb counting.

Same carb level - foods with lectin and soy and gluten = 25 less pounds.

I went gluten free years ago and my pants fit looser, without any change to the carb count OR calories. Pursuing plant toxins and eliminated them took me further. Bloating? Endocrine interference? Intestinal permeability? I don't know.

I agree body fat is a symptom of an underlying issue.
