Not really. unsalted Nuts, non canned beans, fruit and veggies. Not that hard but not that tasty either when you have drive by In-n-Out Burger on the way to the farmers market.

But someone who is a vegetarian and eats mass quantities of fruits can be in the same boat, or someone who drinks large amounts of fruit juices. Now add in all the carbs which turn to glucose and you have a big problem. There is no mystery here, but you do need to have some knowledge and use some common sense to avoid the overloads. I personally use to drink to much soda, I stopped drinking the stuff except for very occasionally, now it is plain water for me. I may not be a vegetarian but I eat lots of them, my kids think I eat to many!

If you don't carb load too much AND cut out the injection of calories that oils add then your body will burn the carbs.

What I take from the paper Sy just posted is that total sugars are not the overall problem, supersized everything is the real issue. To many calories intake and not enough exercise to burn it all off. As I said much earlier the real difference between us and our grandparents is the quantities of food consumed. You can change the types of sugars around but by themselves they are not the problem, over-consumption is really the issue. When I was a kid a soda was typically 8-12 oz, a glass of orange juice was probably 6-8 oz and most other things were just in much smaller quantities. Then you got into the size wars, RC cola was 16oz and everyone tried to out do each other. Now go to a 7-11 store and the sodas are up to 64oz, hot dogs are foot long, Pizza are large or larger, you name it and it is bigger portion sized. Eat less and things go back to normal quickly. I am not a chemist but grew up in my father's medical lab doing all sorts of blood testing, it was amazing how bad some people's cholesterol and other things were coming through those diagnostic machines, if you saw the patients it wasn't all that hard to make the correlations. My father was a Bio-analyst by the way, knew lots of chemistry to say the least. Fat people had elevated levels on multiple tests, you can do the math.

The arrogance of some PhD's here is telling. Do we really have to 'prove' everything to THEIR satisfaction, just to discuss it? I think not.
Recently, I have been reading a book on nutrition and healing that was given to me at the Newport Show by an audiophile. You guys are tame compared to what is in this book, but I try to keep an open mind, unlike some people. '-)
