Just as animal research tells us that gluttony and sloth are side effects of a drive to accumulate body fat, it also says that eating in moderation and being physically active (literally, having the energy to exercise) are not evidence of moral rectitude. Rather, they’re the metabolic benefits of a body that’s programmed to remain lean (Gary Taubes Quotes)
The laboratory evidence that carbohydrate-rich diets can cause the body to reain water and so raise blood pressure, just as salt consumption is supposed to do, dates back well over a century (Gary Taubes Quotes)
The simplest way to look at all these associations, between obesity, heart disease, type 2 diabetes, metabolic syndrome, cancer, and Alzheimer’s (not to mention the other the conditions that also associate with obesity and diabetes, such as gout, asthma, and fatty liver disease), is that what makes us fat - the quality and quantity of carbohydrates we consume - also makes us sick. (Gary Taubes Quotes)
We don’t get fat because we overeat; we overeat because we’re getting fat (Gary Taubes Quotes)
The simple answer as to why we get fat is that carbohydrates make us so; protein and fat do not (Gary Taubes Quotes)
There is a theory that creativity arises when individuals are out of sync with their environment.
