En kalori är fortfarande en kalori

[King Grub]

Chronic degenerative “diseases of civilization” are the top challenges of all health systems globally[1]. Among them, obesity is the most pernicious because it a) has survived several meritorious lifestyle initiatives undeterred, b) is associated with intractable environmental promotion, c) there is no long-term medical treatment available, d) negatively affects several other cardiovascular risk factors, and e) is the leading cause of preventable life-years lost in the United States[2]. The misbelief that an unrestrained, permissive “diet,” effortless exercise “program”, or magic “diet pill” may exist continues to permeate popular thinking and media pieces. The combination of such fantasies, denial, and rejection of scientifically proven nutrition principles has enabled the triple epidemics of obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular risk to continue. One of the controversies that recur is the question of whether a low-fat or low-carbohy-drate is “healthier”.
