<<The diets may be associated with increased risk for coronary heart disease
due to increased intakes of saturated fat, cholesterol and other associated
dietary factors, >>

I think that there is a long way to go to prove this one. I for one eat a large steak every night and my over all cholesterol level is 169 with the good stuff being 64 out of that total ...............What's yours?

<The advisory said, "Although these diets may
not be harmful for most healthy people for a short period of time, there are
no long-term studies to support their overall efficacy and safety." >>

Or any detrimental effects........

<<Nutrition experts had a variety of opinions. >>

<<Volek told UPI: "I wouldn't agree with the general
conclusions. The tone of the article is a little bit aggressive in lieu of
the lightly referenced data to speak against high-protein diets. I don't
think we have enough evidence to come out this strongly against them." >>

It seems that the jury is still out on this subject as evidenced by the differing opinions in the article itself.
