12:50 < jrayhawk> you might like stephan guyenet or chris kresser better
12:50 < jrayhawk> robb wolf is more a cheerleader than anything
12:51 < jrayhawk> chris masterjohn is interesting too

11:22 < jrayhawk> kanzure: there are maybe four themes you should have in your paper collection for making fun of Taubes: 1) the Kitava study 2) leptin/insulin receptor sensitivity and their relationship 3) lindeberg's uncontrolled randomized trial and frassetto's controlled unrandomized trial, both of which were using fairly orthodox macronutrient ratios
11:23 < jrayhawk> although nowadays the no-carb camp is claiming it's "acellular carbohydrates"
11:23 < jrayhawk> so you want 4) the CXCR3/zonulin studies
11:23 < jrayhawk> which hilariously implicates the protein constituents.
11:25 < jrayhawk> That said, while Taubes' central hypothesis is tragically dumb, he does a lot of very good research. He was quite good at proliferating the Alzheimers-as-a-type-of-diabetes theory.
11:26 < jrayhawk> And his latest NuSi project does not seem to be dependant upon his hypothesis, which is also cool.
11:28 < jrayhawk> Oh, and I guess there's lots of helpful studies on linoleic acid and obesity
