Everyone NEEDS to See This. NOW.

I love the internet. Everyday I find something new that inspires me. I've blogged many times about Gary Taubes, and his book Good Calories, Bad Calories. I've written about how it basically rocked my nutrition and exercise world. Well, today on the internet, I found a battle between Gary Taubes (who is FUCKING AWESOME) and Dr. Oz (aka the worlds biggest douche).

Gary Taubes was brave enough to go on Dr. Oz's show where they totally set him up and never let him get a word in edgewise. He STILL was impressive, if you listen to him and not jump to all the broad sweeping conclusions that Dr. Oz did. Oh, and Dr. Oz? The last time I checked Oprah was still fat, and so are all those housewives that hang on your every word. CATCH A CLUE AMERICA, IF YOU ARE FAT, STOP EATING REFINED CARBOHYDRATES AND SUGAR. If you don't have a weight problem, eat what you want.

I love Dr. Oz's 24 hour trial (sarcasm). What a joke. If there is one thing I have never been since going Paleo its tired after eating. On the standard American diet, I used to be so full and lethargic after a meal. Why? Cause of the blood sugar spike and the insulin crash. Paleo doesn't cause that, so if you are tired after you eat a meal of protein and veggies, you simply ate WAY TOO MUCH which is never a good thing, no matter what diet you choose.

  2. Ha! I was just visiting my grandparents this weekend and a commercial came on for Dr. Oz's show. I basically said, who is that douche? And my grandma replied, oh that's Dr. Oz, he's great! I love him! I still thought he looked like a douche. And this was after only about 30 seconds.

    I'll have to go check out those videos. I'm crawling back to paleo, hat in hand. I just got so sick eating grains, it was crazy.
