FDA to regulate "low-carb" Well I hate to see too much regulation but I do think that the FDA's regulating what is called "low-carb" is necessary. With all of the hype about reducing carbs in everything and various ways of measureing the carbs available in food people need to know what they are getting.

Perceptions of care for weight loss. This is my rant on how professionals may not understand the issues around weight management and the people who may need help.

What do I Count? With the explosion of available diets (Adkins, Sugar Busters, South Beach, Weight Watchers etc.)each looking at different ingredients, such as, low-carbohydrate diets and a long history of low-fat diets it is becoming increasingly difficult to know what to look for on lables.
