The 3-Hour Diet: How Low-Carb Diets Make You Fat and Timing Makes You Thin
reviewed on + 15 more book reviews


Ridiculous. There is science (and lots of it) to back up low-carb (AKA low-sugar, duh) eating. I've lost 15 lbs by eating low-carb (and it included those last, hard-to-lose 10 lbs, too). I have NOT read this book. But I have read a LOT about diets, about diabetes, and such, and just had to say that this is an erroneous assumption that ignores lots of scientific data. Must be just a gimmick. BTW, lots of folks I know have lost 50+ lbs on low-carb/Atkins style eating, and KEPT IT OFF FOR OVER A YEAR. This diet may possibly "work", but it's just incorrect in saying that low-carb diets make you fat. BULL.
