Danny Roddy goes there re Chris Kresser’s and Robb Wolf’s new line of supplements for paleo folks (#oxymoron?):
There is no doubt in my mind that for many people, digestion, blood sugar dysregulation, and poor liver function are common problems that can be trickier to overcome than adhering to an arbitrary diet.
But at the same time, I doubt a wild mix of pills is the best way to go about treating these problems.
I’m a little biased wrt supplements (prefer real food). You’re welcome to disagree, but for my money, all of this feels a lot like the wild wild west of diet and nutrition. At the risk of mixing metaphors, caveat emptor!
Weight Maven is written by Beth Mazur. Beth believes that obesity is more symptom than cause and that the real problem is our Western diet -- especially sugar, refined grains, and industrial oils. Beth writes about nutrition, ancestral health & food policy. And cats!
I agree! Danny is spot on witht this one.
