Good news.

I think Anthony Colpo owes you money, $20,000 to be exact. Colpo does not understand that obesity is extremely complex, unbelieveably so. He does not understand there are literally dozens of variables affecting it. There’s genetics, stress, food quality, pathogens, symbiotes, toxins to name a few.

You can use the experiment with mice Dr. Eades to refute Anthony Colpo’s calories are everything claims. Researchers took obese mice and extraced gut flora from them and transplanted transplanted it into thin mice. Genetics amoung the mice were identical, and so a controlled variable. Food was also a controlled variable – all mice ate the same foods and got exactly the same calories each day. The thin transplanted mice became fat. Thin controlled mice remained thin.

This experiment shows that intestinal flora are one of the variables affecting obesity, and it shows that there are circumstances where you can get results ranging from thin to obese WITH ABSOLUTELY ZERO MODULATION OF CALORIES.

I’d like to publicly show just how Anthony Colpo’s information is a distortion of the facts, or he is just plain ignorant . That Fat Loss Bible is pure unadulterated crap. The book is nothing more than a peddling of the misinformation that “calories are everything” . Colpo is WRONG about calories being everything and we now have even more experimental proof. Calories are only one variable amoung many, many.

P.S. To anyone new to this thread: I am Razwell, “Razzi” , Anthony Colpo’s former biggest syncophant (I was so misled and foolish). So for me to say this, it means something big time. Don’t fall for what I did people, Anthony Colpo is an internet charlatan making a lot of money off of the gullible.

You or Fred Hahn are more than welcome to refute Colpo with this and try to claim your prize . The only request I have is that you tell him who it came from

Take Care, Dr. Eades

Razwell

Hey Razwell

You track him down (he seems to have vanished from the face of the earth) and collect, and I’ll split it with you.

I would be curious to see if any of Anthony’s book is gleaned from Ellington Darden, Ph.D.’s work.

See his website http://www.drdarden.com and check Amazon for the over 2 dozen books he’s authored. Much information on his website as well.

“Colpo” in Italian means a hit, a blow or a strike or similar action.

(The Italian noun for blame or fault is “colpa.”)

Somewhere he has “lost the plot” and is now beyond reason.

Love all your articles Dr. Mike! Keep up the good work!

Thanks, Angie.

I know I’m never going to persuade AC or his idiot followers, but that’s not the reason for doing the critique. It’s for the other people who have sense enough to understand it.

Yeah, I used to read his Omnivore blogs, but after he started flip-flopping – yeah I remember how he went into great detail about how switching from a low fat to low carb diet practically saved his health, then one day he found the glory of reduced calorie diets again…(”it’s only calories that really count”….)…

doc, don’t waste your time. I think he’s scary with true sociopathic, narcissistic tendencies. I’ve been watching enough Forensics shows and court tv and Law and Order Criminal Intent, to recognize another perp when I see one.

He’s turned into one scary dude.

I read AC’s Great Cholesterol Con, by the way, and while I appreciated his passion for the subject and the amount of time he put into gathering studies, the writing was definitely that of an amateur who needed the help of an editor.

Shame on me, but I couldn’t resist.

Absolutely hilarious. I should post it for all to see. In fact, I will.
