This research looked at sources of food by weight and what combination
leads to what weight status:

They are basically agreeing that it's ultimately caloric intake, but by
choosing the right kinds of food, there's no need to count calories. There
are other popular diets with the same philosophy.
Viviane Beullens - 18 Nov 2004 23:36 GMT
There is also the famous Montignac diet: separate sugars from fats and if
possible eat as less
sugar as possible.

Site WAY too wordy and complicated. Just tell me what I'm supposed to eat, as a
daily diet.
Viviane Beullens - 19 Nov 2004 08:29 GMT
You may eat whatever you like, as long as you separate the fats
from sugar.

For instance, if you eat potatoes or white bread (which contain enough well sugar)
you may add vegetables and meager meat, but no fat sauces or fat cheese or whatever
fats.
What you can do is eat the fat (for instance some cheese) at a distance of a couple

of hours from the sugars.

If you eat fats, for instance, some fat cheese  then eat it without bread or
other sugars. Usually there is no sugar in cheese, but check always the labels, it
must be mentioned.

So, meals are composed whether of protein and glucides whether of protein and fats.

It is the mix of sugars and fats that increase weight.
The explication Montignac gives is fats are not stored if there is no
insulin in the blood and there is no insulin in the blood if there is no sugar in
the blood..
If you don't have to lose weight but simply strive at keeping your weight as is,
then what you can do is observe the Monitgnac rules for one meal per day.

Another golden rule of Montignac's diet is to drink at a distance of meals.
Thanks to this one I came myself through some health problems, so I still observe
it.
The separation of sugars and fats I observe at least for one meal a day. I do it
because
this way I can put sugar in my drinks - which I drink always at a distance of at
least one
hour of meals.
Check out my songs, The Ear is about nutrition. I wrote it for myself but also to
try to tell
how important nutrition can be. For me nutrition was the true medicine.

"The explication Montignac gives is fats are not stored if there is no
insulin in the blood and there is no insulin in the blood if there is
no sugar in the blood."

There is always insulin and glucose in the blood at all times, both are
required for cells to use energy, without which we would die. The "mixed"
food theory has no foundation in the least.  Total calorie intake
determines weight status, if we consume more then is used we store energy
as stored tissue for later use,ie. fat.
Viviane Beullens - 19 Nov 2004 15:28 GMT
I should have specified white sugars - a lot of insuline come in the blood
when these are consumed.
Non processed sugars keep glycemy low, and therefore are to be preferred over
white.

Doesn't matter where the sugars (or starches) come from, a sugar is a
sugar.

In 2000, I developed a condition, involving severe weight loss, which
my doctors could not "cure."  I did my own research, including
brushing up on my biochemistry, and I realized that those claiming
that oxidative stress is the key to "disease" had overwhelming
evidence on their side.  I stopped my vegan diet of 14 years (soy,
nuts, seeds, legumes, whole grains) and started eating much more fat
(in the form of coconut oil, butter, dark chocolate, raw goat milk),
but avoiding unsaturated fatty acids as much as possible.  I also
started eating fruit as my my carb source.  That was in February,
2001.  I got back to close to my orginal weight (still a few pounds
less), but my blood tests were better, particularly TGs and blood
glucose.  I always eat highly saturated fat and fruit together, and
I've never felt so satisfied after eating.  I can go many hours
between meals, and I never feel hungry at night.  I recently had MRA
and there was no indication of atherosclerotic changes whatsoever,
which is due to oxidative stress, not saturated fatty acids.  I word
of caution:  avoid animal fats from meat.  Lard, for example, is about
60% unsaturated, and with little antioxidant protection.  Very
dangerous stuff.

Very interesting.
<br>Somewhat comparable to what I did; it was a change in diet that got
me back to health.
<br>And since then when I need to put on weight I mix sugars and fats
<br>and when I need to put off weight I separate sugars and fats.
<br>For you as well as for me&nbsp; nutrition has been the true medicine.
<br>I am convinced a lot of people would be able to treat a lot of health
troubles
<br>if they&nbsp; would understand the importance of food.

And after this recitation by "he who invents standards", which he got from
publicly posted information available to all at any time, and with no
attempt to obscure the universitie's funding sources, what does this say
about the quality of the research and it's results?  Taking al look at the
list of supporters and apply some speculation for which I have no support
other then their name and industry segment, it is apparent that she has
research that will wholly piss off some food industry folk and please some
others. So now is her research still valid that eating lots of water rich
fruits and veggies causes long term weight loss, I leave it to the reader
to evaluate the research.

And the intended audience for these studies know full well all of
this. Members of the general public will likely become paranoid if
they don't keep up with the research on their particular topic.

Doing so is just rearranging the deck chairs on the titanic, it is
irrelevant because all food sources are reduced to a simple sugar if it is
to be a energy source.  And as before, insulin and glucose are in the
blood at all times as a normal part of making life possible.  
Non-processed sugar sources have the exact same effect as does table
sugar, depending on which food source contains it. On the other hand, whey
protein and cocoa are two non-sugar foods which cause significant rises in
blood insulin not related to sugar consumption.  I think you are refering
to the glycemic index and other related research, but this still doesn't
rescue the theory that foods should be eaten at different times because of
insulin, in fact that research shows that eating all foods at the same
time helps to lower the curve of sugar and the insulin response in the
blood.
