I’m putting these up here with the intention of filling out a bit more of the information around it later.  In the meantime, please feel free to check out these talks.

A New York Times Article About It

NPR discusses the same.

Also take note of this *other* source that very simply explains the effect that Carbohydrates have on the body in general.  What’s most interesting to me is how this information merges with the information from Dr. Lustig above.  If Lustig is saying that the body can process *most* of our Glucose sugars (within limits) and the information below is explaining simply how carbs effect the growth of fat… then it should stand to reason that to a reasonable extent, we’re allowed to eat the Glucose carbs that we get from bread – but not the refined sugar carbs that we get from Soda and stuff like that (this includes honey, agave, table sugar, and everything with the ever popular High Fructose Corn Syrup).

All that said and done, this seems to mesh pretty closely with what Tom Venuto explained in his book .  

Burn the Fat, Feed the Muscle

Honestly, I’ve known that his book was right on the money for ages now, so it’s nice to see some actual giant-brained doctor’s research.
