Gary Taubes: The Blood Speaks

In this follow-up post to the article that I cited yesterday, Taubes posts his recent blood test results. Read what he eats, and then look at the results. Having lost both grandfathers and one uncle to fatal heart attacks and having a father who suffered CAD & underwent a CABG, I've followed my numbers over the years and done a fair amount of self-education on the topic. These are great numbers for Taubes and they confirm what others have experienced eating a low-carb (or paleo) diet. Heresy? Yes. Is he on to something? Quite likely. (Although he eats more meat than I think that I can.) Love those Con salads, too!
