Taubes' Ten Inescapable Conclusions
In his concluding chapter of Good Calories, Bad Calories, Taubes comes
to ten inescapable conclusions based on his five years of research and his attempt to put it all together. I'll paraphrase, but you can find the actual ones around about page 427 or so. 1. Dietary fat doesn't cause obesity, heart problems, or other chronic diseases of civilization. 2. Yes, carbs are the real problem. It's in how they work with insulin and therefore the entire hormonal regulatory system. 3. Sugar is the worst. We're talking table sugar and HFCS here. And it's the duality of glucose+fructose that's the real killer (OJ Simpson's quest for the real killers not withstanding). 4. Carbs cause coronary heart disease and diabetes. They are the most likely dietary causes of cancer, Alzheimer's, and other chronic diseases of civilization. 5. Being overweight/obese is a disorder of excess fat accumulation, not overeating and not couching around. The "too much to eat and too little movement causes fat folks to be fat" crowd has it backwards. Being fat makes you couch around and overeat. 6. Excess calories don't make you fatter. Excess energy use doesn't lead to weight loss in the long term. It does lead to hunger. 7. Fattening is caused by an imbalance in the hormonal regulation of fat tissue and fat metabolism. Fat creation and storage outpace fat use. To get lean, you must get your hormones back into balance (i.e. your insulin under control) 8. High insulin = fat goes into storage. Low insulin = an environment where you can move fat out of fat cells. 9. Carbs stimulate insulin secretion, which leads to fat storage. Fewer carbs = leaner us. 10. Carbs also make us hungry. If hunger/cravings are signals that cells need nutrition and insulin is putting everything into storage, you can imagine what chronic hyperinsulemia can do to your "willpower". Carbs also make us move less, through the same fat storage story. If you are chronically elevated, and your food is going into storage, instead of use, the use cells will be starved and not feel like doing anything. It's the same story, and it's the explanation of why people have it backwards. For the folks who maintain that it's the quantity of macronutrients rather than the quality or that dietary fat is the enemy of weightloss, I would like to see an alternative model that accounts for the role of insulin vs. all other hormones in fat accumulation/fat loss. I would like to see a hole punched in these "inescapable conclusions" by Chung, Kaz, and all the other volume/calorie/fat watchers out there who dismiss low carb, either as a calorie limiting mechanism or as inferior to any other approach to weight loss. For the rest of us, can we make this the Low Carb Equivalent of Martin Luther's 95 Theses? The kind of thing we tack to the doors of our local branches of the USDA, the AHA, both ADAs, local fitness celebrities, etc? I live in the residential half of a complex that houses the Diabetic ADA. I work about half a mile from USDA headquarters. Are they in need of Martin Luther thesising? |

Taubes' Ten Inescapable Conclusions
"Hollywood" wrote 1. Dietary fat doesn't cause obesity, heart problems, or other chronic diseases of civilization. I can buy this. 2. Yes, carbs are the real problem. It's in how they work with insulin and therefore the entire hormonal regulatory system. I think that depends. If carb consumption is out of line with activity level, then there is a problem. 3. Sugar is the worst. We're talking table sugar and HFCS here. And it's the duality of glucose+fructose that's the real killer (OJ Simpson's quest for the real killers not withstanding). Don't have a problem with this one, especially if they aren't burned off quickly. 4. Carbs cause coronary heart disease and diabetes. They are the most likely dietary causes of cancer, Alzheimer's, and other chronic diseases of civilization. Don't have a problem with this one, especially if they aren't burned off quickly. 5. Being overweight/obese is a disorder of excess fat accumulation, not overeating and not couching around. The "too much to eat and too little movement causes fat folks to be fat" crowd has it backwards. Being fat makes you couch around and overeat. Well, this seems like the chicken and the egg thing. 6. Excess calories don't make you fatter. Excess energy use doesn't lead to weight loss in the long term. It does lead to hunger. I think the research is either not solid on this point or Taubes is wrong. Note that a carb intake which might drive hormones out of balance can be fixed by appropriate / heavy exercise. That's why people can lose weight on a low-fat, high-carb diet. Too much food intake can create an anabolic state within the body, as too little food intake can create a catabolic state within the body. Insulin will follow those states. Exercise can affect those states as well, either by lessening the anabolic state or by increasing the degree of catabolism within the body. If Taubes doesn't believe that excess calories don't make us fatter over time, then he must point to evidence of significant human food energy existing within our poop. 7. Fattening is caused by an imbalance in the hormonal regulation of fat tissue and fat metabolism. Fat creation and storage outpace fat use. To get lean, you must get your hormones back into balance (i.e. your insulin under control) No problem there. 8. High insulin = fat goes into storage. Low insulin = an environment where you can move fat out of fat cells. No problem there. 9. Carbs stimulate insulin secretion, which leads to fat storage. Fewer carbs = leaner us. Where is exercise in the equation? It is well known that exercise can influence this balance. 10. Carbs also make us hungry. If hunger/cravings are signals that cells need nutrition and insulin is putting everything into storage, you can imagine what chronic hyperinsulemia can do to your "willpower". Carbs also make us move less, through the same fat storage story. If you are chronically elevated, and your food is going into storage, instead of use, the use cells will be starved and not feel like doing anything. It's the same story, and it's the explanation of why people have it backwards. Well, I can buy this too, to a degree. He does say "chronically elevated" though. For the folks who maintain that it's the quantity of macronutrients rather than the quality or that dietary fat is the enemy of weightloss, I would like to see an alternative model that accounts for the role of insulin vs. all other hormones in fat accumulation/fat loss. I would like to see a hole punched in these "inescapable conclusions" by Chung, Kaz, and all the other volume/calorie/fat watchers out there who dismiss low carb, either as a calorie limiting mechanism or as inferior to any other approach to weight loss. Well, I don't see why one must use this as a reason to justify low carb. This explains why we get fat : we generally eat too many carbs for our activity level. Carbs aren't evil. They have a place. We engineer food to taste good and we generally like to eat carbs and we slow down as we get older (many of us slow down must quicker than others, too). We end up getting fat. I can buy that too many carbs (relative to activity level) creates a situation that makes us lazy, too. For the rest of us, can we make this the Low Carb Equivalent of Martin Luther's 95 Theses? The kind of thing we tack to the doors of our local branches of the USDA, the AHA, both ADAs, local fitness celebrities, etc? I live in the residential half of a complex that houses the Diabetic ADA. I work about half a mile from USDA headquarters. Are they in need of Martin Luther thesising? No. It's about controling (or adjusting) carb consumption relative to your activity level {What Atkins referred to later on a "controlled carb" nutrition.}. It should be tacked to the doors of the ADA for sure however, and perhaps the AHA since they seem to think fat is dangerous. They do have it wrong, by and large, IMO, but a flat out "carbs are evil" statement {which is what the above sounds like} is no better than "fat is evil". The question about what is a healthy diet is critical here, though. Too many carbs and too little activity is unhealthy. But so is too many calories and too little activity. The latter may not be so easy to do compared to the former if the calories are really low carb calories, but it is still more true than false, IMO. Thanks for the post. |

If Taubes doesn't believe that excess calories don't make us fatter over time, then he must point to evidence of significant human food energy existing within our poop. IIRC: He does point to poop calories. But it's more based on a cellular level conservation discussion than a macro, person level conservation issue. I found it compelling. I have not slacked in my exercise, either. I don't know that this is cognitive dissonance or just I like the other, non-weight loss things I get from exercise. 9. Carbs stimulate insulin secretion, which leads to fat storage. Fewer carbs = leaner us. Where is exercise in the equation? It is well known that exercise can influence this balance. If it's about the exercise lowering insulin/improving response, then it fits fine. If it's about exercise calories burning adipose tissue, well, there's room for discussion. 10. Carbs also make us hungry. If hunger/cravings are signals that cells need nutrition and insulin is putting everything into storage, you can imagine what chronic hyperinsulemia can do to your "willpower".

If I were going to start Martin Luthering the district, I think I'd quote the book directly. Maybe email Taubes to see if it'd be a problem. Of course, better to ask forgiveness than permission. Thanks for the post. No problem. Thanks for the response. |

The secret to excess calories piling on the pounds in his examples was attributed to the high carbohydrate content (possibly the refined carb content) of the excess calories.

So, at least, is what I seem to have read today. I simply cannot accept the notion that 5000 calories a day of beef won't make the normal person fat. I do think that the carbs will pile the weight on quickly, though, especially if they aren't burned. Heck, if you don't burn those carb calories, you'll get lazy. Once the intake starts to exceed the burn, and the fat starts piling on. Low carb calories are very different, IMO. It will be very hard to consistently eat 5000 LC kcals/day, IMO. {Usually, overeating on LC does means carb creep, IME, which might make things different!} And while they won't make you lazy per se, they won't allow you do lots and lots of exercise, or significant high intensity exercise (relative measures that depend on the person's weight and muscle mass). |

So, at least, is what I seem to have read today. I simply cannot accept the notion that 5000 calories a day of beef won't make the normal person fat. Nobody ever said that. Well, it does say this: "6. Consuming excess calories does not cause us to grow fatter, any more than it causes a child to grow taller. Expending more energy than we consume does not lead to long-term weight loss; it leads to hunger." I think the first statement could mean that we all have a certain genetic-programming built in which to a large degree determines what we look like, ie, men in my immediate family then to be around 6' tall. Now that I think about what Taubes could be saying, the second part probably means a similar thing: Our ability to be lean is also to a large degree determined by genetic coding. It could explain why considerable levels of leanness are much easier for some to achieve while virtually impossible for others. You haven't gotten to the part of the book where he talks about how other published researchers have tried to force normal subjects into massive weight gain with overfeeding..... and haven't been all that successfuyl, have you. Well, I decided to fast forward to reading about the straving fat rat in the chapter on paradoxes. Well, maybe you shouldn't accept it, as it fails to meet with your preceptions..... like happens with medical experts. Absolutely. It's part of the human condition whether any of us like it or not. When you read more, you might slow down the standard "shooting from the hip of familiar biases". Well, oversimplified statements invite "from-the-hip" responses. You can be successful at forcing the massive weight gain, apparently, with a high carb diet, but not a "balanced" one. Ok, so you're telling me that somewhere in here he presents research results where those being overfed on high-carb diets always gained massive weight whereas that didn't universally happen when subjects were overfed on a "balanced" one. If so, I haven't found that as of yet. I've found where some would gain nearly 3 times the amount of others (some not gaining any), but the diet was not specified. I do think that the carbs will pile the weight on quickly, though, especially if they aren't burned. Heck, if you don't burn those carb calories, you'll get lazy. Once the intake starts to exceed the burn, and the fat starts piling on. Low carb calories are very different, IMO.

That's been reported elsewhere also, though I can't recall where I've read it, but I know I read it relatively recently before picking up Taubes book. That's what I personally meant by "new" - not that I expected Taubes to have done reserach himself, but it'd have been nice if he had reviewed the most recent research as well as the old stuff that's been reported generally again and again and again. Well, maybe you shouldn't accept it, as it fails to meet with your preceptions..... like happens with medical experts. Criticizing Taubes is not disagreeing with a low-carb diet; most who are criticizing here are confirmed low-carbers after all. -- http://www.ornery-geeks.org/consulting/ |

I recall a study in Taubes (cruelly left at home, again... the damn thing weighs my bag down something fierce) where people were losing weight on limited carbs at 3800 carbs a day. Now, 38 is not 50, and it might've been the early stages, but it begs the question of what happens to a calorie of fat when there's nothing to put it into storage and nothing to burn it. |

Now, 38 is not 50, and it might've been the early stages, but There's a similar story in one of the Atkins books about a guy who ate lots of steaks and continued to lose. Very bad PR to include that story and it has to be an unusual situation. it begs the question of what happens to a calorie of fat when there's nothing to put it into storage and nothing to burn it. It gets wasted somehow. Maybe much less efficient metabolism, maybe some sort of excretion, maybe something else. And thus it appears to violate the carlories-in/calories-out rule by making the calories-out part extremely more variable than most imagine. |
