Comments on: My response to the “Eat a High Carb” diet argument http://www.colinmcnulty.com/blog/2010/01/31/my-response-to-a-typical-eat-high-carb-diet-argument/ My humble blog about fitness, health, diet (paleo and zone), CrossFit, PDR self defence, weightlifting, general life musings and occasional jollity.

In that respect that internet is both a blessing and a curse. You are certainly right that for every theory, there’s always people who say it isn’t so.

I'm always inclined to keep an open mind on such topics. Not to skew your thread into a discussion about vitamins but the same movie also talks about the benefits of niacin therapy for depression. There's also the issue of vitamin D supplementation for individuals living in climates where winters are long and opportunities for exposure to sunshine are limited. Most experts are in agreement, that diet alone cannot provide sufficient vitamin D. Well, it would seem that for every proven theory, there is a successful counter-theory.

Watch the movie 'Food Matters' and listen to the evidence about supplementary vitamin C and how it's not only not dangerous but also a potential cure for cancer. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KfJLpPs1gTQ In agreement with everything you say here except for the last bit about vitamins.

I walked away after telling the person (who I now know was a girl) that I wasn't going to argue with her. My mate reckons I'm more likely to be right anyway. What a clever chap he is! ;-) I don’t think so Pete. I walked away after telling the person (who I now know was a girl) that I wasn’t going to argue with her.
