In my quick review of how the low-carbohydrate/high- protein diets put you in harm's way, it's well to remem¬ber two medical prefixes, neither of which mean much good: they are hyper and hypo. Hyper means...
I could go on and on about the dangerous aspects of this fad diet or any other fad diet. The high-protein/high-fat/ low-carbohydrate diet presents to me a horror story of grisly proportions. Fortunately,...
The sensible nutrition of the BHMD reflects a way of eating that you can live with day in and day out. It helps
void the disastrous illnesses and potential deaths that may occur with some of the other...
The high-protein/low-carbohydrate diet also causes other problems, one of which is bone loss. Osteoporosis, which is thinning of the bone due to calcium loss, is getting to be fairly common in our society....
Sometimes shock is the only thing that will bring home a point. In my practice and in my mini-clinics in Beverly
Hills I've often judged it necessary to resort to such blunt tactics to make people care....
I would not feel so strongly about the low-carbohydrate/ high-protein diet if it were not for the bodily harm it's known to create. Among the least alarming side effects are calcium depletion, dehydration,...

The high-protein/low-carbohydrate diets advocated by Atkins and Scarsdale have perfected a technique for which I have coined a phrase. They use what I call a "sleight-of-fat."The English Dr. Harvey got...

Since the issue is so clouded with misinformation, and especially since carbohydrates have been made the villain in so many popular diets, let us examine the myth and its hazards. Six years ago the U.S. Department of Agriculture interviewed some 2,500 homemakers and found that only three per cent had a general nutritional knowledge. On the BHMD it is as important to know what you eat as why you eat what you eat.We have already seen that a low-carbohydrate diet is often another word*for a high-protein, high-fat and high cholesterol intake. Just...
With the BHMD I hope to dispel a myth Americans have been laboring under too long. It is the mistaken belief that "starchy" foods cause obesity. Somehow the idea has gotten around that starch is incompatible...

Unlike the run-of-the-mill or faddist diets, the BHMD does not totally limit carbohydrates. I do not ban the dishes which the faddists and mistaken nutritionists rule taboo. I believe that these types of popular diet are to blame for the most excruciating of dietary woes: the "roller coaster" effect of weight loss.
