HealthForce 087 - The Carbohydrate Insulin Model of Obesity

Gary Taubes and other keto/low carb advocates suggest that obesity in America is a problem that we don't understand. Instead of excess food or lack of activity, they posit they carbohydrates are the primary cause of obesity hence the Carbohydrate Insulin Model of Obesity. It sounds cool...which is why it probably has gained some traction. But as you will hear we go through new research and studies sponsored by NuSI (advocates of the CIM Model).
