The study presented by Dr. J.Hayes on June 15, 1999, at the annual meeting of the Endocrine Society, San Diego CA. "Diabetics Improve Health With Very High-Fat, Low Carb Diet"

Quote:

"A very high-fat, low-carbohydrate diet has been shown to have astounding effects in helping type 2

diabetics lose weight and improve their blood lipid profiles. The results of three studies involving such a diet, which is similar to, but has a few key differences from the famous "Dr. Atkins Diet", were

presented today at the annual meeting of the Endocrine Society. Dr. James Hays, an endocrinologist and director of the Limestone Medical Center in Wilmington, DE, admitted that the concept of a high-fat diet in people who are already at higher risk of cardiovascular disease might seem incongruous. Nonetheless, this study of 157 men and women with type 2 diabetes showed an impressive benefit in body mass index (BMI) triglycerides, HDL, LDL and HbA1c."

Quote:

Researchers say their finding supports previous studies that have found high carbohydrate consumption can raise triglyceride levels and reduce the level of "good" cholesterol in the body (the type that takes away the artery-clogging "bad" cholesterol). ...... The investigators, led by Simin Liu, MD, from the Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard Medical School in Boston, analyzed the diet and cardiovascular risk of 280 postmenopausal women, aged 45-70. Based on their findings, researchers suggest that a high intake of carbohydrates could put a person at higher risk for cardiovascular disease.
