This is an interesting anecdote from someone who claims to have cured his alcohol abuse problems by going low carb. http://fathead-movie.com/index.php/2009/04/30/primal-body-pr...


The paleo diet is awesome. I've lost a considerable amount of weight on it, and feel and look much better.

Also, a diet with staples like grass-fed beef, pastured butter (or any other healthy animal fat), avocado, and fish is my kind of diet. No more forcing down bitter grain or soy products in fruitless attempts to go "healthy". Plus, my meals are so substantial and high in fat that I only need to eat once or twice a day.

For anyone interested, there's a lot of good paleo sites out there, but I'd start with http://paleonu.com and http://freetheanimal.com

And if you can, pick up Nourishing Traditions by Sally Fallon.
