[...] To make matters even worse, many so-called “natural” sweeteners are actually carefully engineered, NEVER found in nature, get their calories 100% from carbs (read my post on how carbs are toxic – despite what you may have heard) and are loaded with fructose – the substance that is sometimes called the “Satan Sugar”. Fructose’s moniker as the “Satan Sugar” is an important one, as fructose is a MAJOR component in virtually all natural sweeteners. Why is it called the “Satan Sugar”? Simply put, because fructose has been convincingly linked to obesity, gout AND fatty liver disease. (But don’t take my word for it – You can read more about fructose’s relationship with gout from the brilliant Gary Taubes here: http://www.fourhourworkweek.com/blog ) (You can read more about Fatty Liver Disease and fructose from the equally brilliant Michael Eades, M.D. here: http://www.proteinpower.com/drmike/low-carb-diets/pay-no-attention-to-that-man-behind-the-curtain/) [...]

Dr. Eades, love your books, ive lost thirty pounds and have kept it off, thanks to you and youre wife. It seems to me that in addition to the low carb diet, getting more omega 3 fats into the diet is huge! as you mention in youre book, a ratio closer to 2:1 or 3:1 with omega 6 fats is a large key to good health Also, loved the chapter on magnesium and how important the ratio of calcium to magnesium is. I think this approach is the key in preventative medicine.

I wonder how can you reach more people with this incredible info. Maybe you should go on the OPRAH show. Seriously

Thanks again,
Mike M

For those of you questioning the caffeine content of tea, there is a good discussion on the Linus Pauling Institute Micronutrient Information Center website.

Basically, the caffeine content can vary widely and depends not only on the tea type, but also on how the tea is brewed.

Riley, I finally found a Super Slow weight-training studio out here in Orange County, CA, and I am absolutely amazed at how my body is changing. You can look at the website to see the equipment and read the philosophy behind it–that’s if you don’t already know. The trainer is very pleasant and professional.

I know that I am putting on muscle as my weight has barely changed, but my clothes are falling off me. I am female and have been doing this once a week since September for a total of sixteen sessions. I have yet to see any kind of muscular definition the way you see it on body builders. I’m not worried that I am going to end up looking too muscular, and the difference in how I go about my day is phenomenal. I have more energy and picking up things and bending down–it’s like being a teenager again.

At another studio, the 97 year-old mother of the proprietor is still doing super slow! The following video was done when she was just 90(!)

Fan of Drs. Eades work, used original book to lose weight. On fatty liver disease, I found out I had mild
case after having abdominal CT scan for unrelated problem. GI specialist had just attended medical conference on liver disease that included American and European liver specialists. Consensus was
that another possible cause of fatty liver disease was use of artificial sweeteners, something I was
guilty of. Has anyone else of heard this ?
