Dennis, Clarence Bass, in his book, "Challenge Yourself," preached the benefits of good fat. The most obvious are salmon, herring and sardines, which are extraordinarily good for the heart. I do think the idea that we didn't eat sugars is wrong as I can't imagine many starving cavemen who would walk pass a blackberry bush and say, "nah!"

However, I still have doubts about all the hormone, nitrate and fat marbled items Atkins' dieters eat. The meat our ancestors ate was running away and probably pretty lean. We eat meat that spends its life in stalls and overeats steroid and hormone juiced foods to increase its fat content. I don't believe those two things are comparable.

The pasta is good campaign has always seemed suspicious to me.
