Well, Darth, I'm not going to quote references to a bunch of studies. I've read them. The evidence appears pretty conclusive.
But I'll just repeat Colpo's assertion that in metabolic ward trials – the ONLY type of trial where identical caloric intakes can be assured – low-carb diets have repeatedly failed to show any
fat-derived
weight loss advantage over high-carb diets.
You're probably aware of Colpo's challenge to Dr. Michael Eades and others that believe a metabolic advantage (greater
fat loss) exists on a Ketogenic
diet (low carb)...
Prove Me Wrong and I’ll Hand Over $20,000! Show me published peer-reviewed metabolic ward research that compared isocaloric low- and high-carbohydrate diets and found statistically significant greater fat-derived weight losses among subjects following the low-carb diet.
Nobody's collected yet... mainly because these met ward studies have not shown an advantage of low carb over high carb in shedding
fat.
