All cereals are now gone from our cupboards. I cook the teenager eggs & bacon, or a cheese omelette for breakfast. She no longer takes snacks to school because she isn't hungry enough to eat them.Original Post Deleted
Watched a great video over the weekend on the history of the low fat & cholesterol farce.
So . . . he gave them instant oats for breakfast. Instant oats have a high Glycaemic Index (GI), whereas rolled oats have a lower GI. Furthermore, addition of foods containing fibre, fat and protein to oatmeal (or any carbohydrate staple) will give greater satiety to the meal. By giving his study subjects instant oats, did he show bias in his study? Did he rig his experiment so as to obtain results which would support his position?Harvard nutritionist David Ludwig, who also proposes evaluating food on the basis of satiety instead of calories, has shown that teens given instant oats for breakfast consumed 650 more calories at lunch than their peers who were given the same number of breakfast calories in the form of a more satisfying omelette and fruit.
Looking at the GI of both, instant looks pretty terrible, and rolled looks... slightly less terrible. On par with orange juice.
Unless you're adding, say, half a roast chicken to oatmeal, I don't see how additives are going to make much of a difference. And adding the foods that contain "fibre, fat and protein" to the base of oatmeal kind of detracts from the usefulness of GI measurements for individual foods in the first place.
"Always Hungry?" by David Ludwig, MD, PhD. From page 49:
"We found that the participants burned about 325 calories a day more on the low-carbohydrate compared to the high-carbohydrate diet. This difference is equivalent to about an hour of moderately vigorous physical activity, in effect without lifting a finger."
So, cut carbohydrates from your diet and you can lose weight without exercise. The way a low carbohydrate (ketogenic) diet works for weight loss is due to an increase in the "calories out". Carbohydrates are not inherently more fattening. And, the calorie is not broken.

It was always broken.
