Yeah, early on a lot of us were carefully picking carrot shreds out of our salary and weighing garlic to the second decimal to make sure we were doing it right. A certain zealotry sometimes seems necessary initially just because the whole thing is such an adjustment. Then eventually most people mellow out. :-)

Teaser for some reason that reminds me of a page I once found ranting about how warm water closed pores and cold water opened poors and everything about caring for complexion was wrong as a result. I found myself thinking, "This is pretty easy to test, isn't it??"

That's pretty much how I think about the effect on fats vs. carbs on blood sugar. You don't need a glucose meter to know the difference between a serious blood sugar drop vs. not having one. At least... it doesn't seem like one should... maybe I'm wrong.
