- fhoxh 14y agoGuyenet is a joke. Peter over at HyperLipid recently ripped him to utter shreds: http://high-fat-nutrition.blogspot.com/2012/06/confused.html http://high-fat-nutrition.blogspot.com/2012/06/confused.html http://high-fat-nutrition.blogspot.com/2012/06/insulin-un-dead-and-coffin-nails.html http://high-fat-nutrition.blogspot.com/2012/06/insulin-un-de... Not to mention, Taubes countered Guyenet with a 6-part series refuting Guyenet's widely mocked food-reward/palatability hypothesis: http://garytaubes.com/2011/09/catching-up-on-lost-time-ancestral-health-symposium-food-reward-palatability-insulin-signaling-carbohydrates-kettles-pots-other-odds-ends-part-i/ http://garytaubes.com/2011/09/catching-up-on-lost-time-ances... http://garytaubes.com/2011/11/catching-up-on-lost-time-–-the-ancestral-health-symposium-food-reward-palatability-insulin-signaling-and-carbohydrates…-part-iia/ http://garytaubes.com/2011/11/catching-up-on-lost-time-–-the... http://garytaubes.com/2011/11/catching-up-on-lost-time-–-the-ancestral-health-symposium-food-reward-palatability-insulin-signaling-and-carbohydrates…-part-iib/ http://garytaubes.com/2011/11/catching-up-on-lost-time-–-the... http://garytaubes.com/2011/11/catching-up-on-lost-time-–-the-ancestral-health-symposium-food-reward-palatability-insulin-signaling-and-carbohydrates…-part-iic/ http://garytaubes.com/2011/11/catching-up-on-lost-time-–-the... http://garytaubes.com/2011/11/catching-up-on-lost-time-–-the-ancestral-health-symposium-food-reward-palatability-insulin-signaling-and-carbohydrates…-part-iid/ http://garytaubes.com/2011/11/catching-up-on-lost-time-–-the... http://garytaubes.com/2011/11/catching-up-on-lost-time-–-the-ancestral-health-symposium-food-reward-palatability-insulin-signaling-and-carbohydrates…-part-iie-as-in-“end-and-egh-already/ http://garytaubes.com/2011/11/catching-up-on-lost-time-–-the...
- rmobin 14y agoCool, I'll take a look at Peter's posts - I like him in general. Btw, Stephan did respond to Taubes' 6-part series: http://wholehealthsource.blogspot.com/2011/11/brief-response-to-taubess-food-rewad.html http://wholehealthsource.blogspot.com/2011/11/brief-response...
- yummyfajitas 14y agoI read through the first 3 of your links by taubes, which all seemed to be extremely verbose sophistry that don't address Guyanet's points at all. At what point does Taubes actually address Guyanet's (clearly stated) claim, that if food is tastier, people eat more of it, consume more calories, and become fatter?
- fhoxh 14y agoI would say that you might consider reading the complete 6-part series. :-)
- yummyfajitas 14y agoI would say that if you want people to read a relevant link, you should at least say "here are 6 links, all but $N are all red herrings." Have a little respect for the time of the reader.
- pja 14y agoThe fourth link quotes Guyanet directly, so perhaps you stopped too soon?
