  To;dr - it's boring old calories across the food spectrum that make us
  fat, not carbs all on their own.

  This is a very long yet information dense read. I recommend it if for
  no other reason than describing Brett's original view (low carb FTW!)
  and how he advocated that stance only to allow himself to be persuaded
  away from it by science. It's a sadly uncommon bit of bravery to be
  willing and able to change one's own mind.

  This does back up my anecdotal observations in Japan where they eat the
  diet ultimately recommended here: high (healthy, low processed)
  carbohydrates, low fat, and moderate protein all in modest caloric
  intake. They do other things, like eating family-style when eating out
  in a group, that help to keep the calories down.

  My own eating further backs this up in my own mind: when I eat a
  largely Japanese diet my weight drops; when I eat a modern American
  diet my weight increases.

  Ultimately, Michael Pollen summed it up best:

    Eat food. Not too much. Mostly plants.

  As always, YMMV.
