You're welcome. From a quick review those links don't seem to have as much as I remembered about insulin. Since McDonald has a peculiar writing style I probably bookmarked only the articles that had the most readily applicable information. His articles usually contain a lot of internal links which makes your reading list explode, but as a side benefit if you keep rummaging long enough you can dig out other interesting material you wouldn't have thought of looking for in the first place.

BTW some cheating can go a long way, and having delightful people around us can only make that better. Actually, there would be something wrong if you weren't happy! good night

It's a long one, but I definitely thought it was very interesting and very convincing. Since your discussion involves the cause of obesity, I thought I'd just throw this out there. I'd be interested to hear your opinions on this.

Dr. Lustig makes some good points but he does tend to get a little a little one sided in his views. That reduces the credibility of what he's saying which is unfortunate as he gets labeled an alarmist. http://www.alanaragonblog.com/2010/01/2 ... -alarmism/

In this list meat is shown to be as insulinogenic as carbohydrates. The usual counter is that consumption of meat also raises glucagon. To which Berkhan replies:
