That a good way to lose weight for most people. For some of us weight is not the issue. Beyond weight, Low carb diets fix resting blood sugar, blood pressure, atherslerosis and other deadly issues only found on tests. This study is claiming the Mediterranean diet is better for people with diabetes and metabolic syndrome.

I guess I'm fairly suspicious that a high carb diet like Mediterranean would show these results. There is great resistance to low carb diets mostly because of the red meat most people eat with it. PETA types and nutritionists wedded to the low fat concept seem to hate it.

Most low-carbers mainly eat chicken and fish for their meat. Maybe I'll have red meat once a month, or so.
