the f***er and the 'militant animal rights vegan org' will never win. A high fat diet for 6 months can never be proven to have caused this guy's coroanry artery disease - how about his lifetime of obesity. what's his genetics? what a loser. the pathophys of CAD and unstable angina is so complex that it cannot be simplified to such an extent and blamed on a single part of someone's lifestyle.
I saw this guy on the news this morning. He said he got on the Atkins Diet, because he was ... GASP!... 148 pounds when he thinks his ideal weight is 140. The guy was mad skinny. He won't win his lawsuit because his case is just ludicrous, but hopefully the exposure will help stop the Atkins craze. It just makes me sick. The next person I hear say the words "net carbs" I'm running them over in a truck full of Wheat Thins.
