Gary Taubes: Good Calories, Bad Calories: Fats, Carbs, and the Controversial Science of Diet and Health (2007) Formats: epub, lit, lrf, mobi, pdf. http://www.amazon.com/Good-Calories-Bad-Controversial-Science/dp/1400033462/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1287000289&sr=8-1 My contribution is that I have converted the book to PDF and created a bookmark table of contents. I have not fixed the internal links. If you want to do that yourself while you read, I recommend PDF-XChange Viewer. http://piratebayproxy.live/torrent/5860244/PDF-XChange_Viewer_Pro_2.054___serial-vokeon Read the book and get off those carbs, guys! Seriously. ;-)

Many thanks for sharing this one! I've heard about the book quite a number of times. It will for sure be a most interesting read. I did a chance search five minutes ago, and Voila! Generously shared since yesterday.
Thanks again!
Thanks again!
It truly is a good read, and a massive one. I have the paper book and Ive been at it quite a while now. Have to take it in small portions or I can't process the amount of facts.
If you like it, I recommend you buy the real book. This amount of text is hard to read on screen, but having the ebook is great for searchability!

tooticki. Yes, I believe you're absolutely right. The book is said to be very interesting but also as far from a daily paper comic strip as you get when it comes to information density :-)
Great tip about having the paperback for 'readability' and the scanned version for searchability.

You may also be interested in the other book on fat I just uploaded.
Would you believe it, I found that one the week after I bought it! Well, as said, it's nice to have both sometimes. ;-)

I'm not sure about this good calories and bad calories. If you want to lose weight you have to eat less than you burn. I used this tool: http://www.calotor.com to figure out how many calories should i eat
Yeah? How much did you lose that way and more importantly, how long did you keep it off?
I dare say that almost every obese person have tried the conventional advise over and over again. Not many succeed in the long run.
Also remember that avoiding carbs for weight loss WAS the conventional wisdom not that many decades ago and it was the only way for diabetics to survive. Now they feed diabetics sugar and insuline. Constantly high levels of both insulin and glucose - what a recipe for a catastrophe. Sadly, we all know the victims.

I realize that I'm a little late to this party, but I've got to respond to the ignorant comment from baseter (and I'm using "ignorant" in the literal sense--as in, ignorant of the facts before commenting).
I'm assuming that basester's comment was made without bothering to even look at Taube's book. In fact, baseter's opinion is pretty consistent with what we've been taught for years--you need to burn more calories than you take in. This book debunks that myth, and supports it with scientific research. At the very least, take a look at the arguments that Taubes (educated at Harvard and Columbia) makes in his book before criticizing it.
