Atkins diet beats low-fat fare
Happy to see a mainstream study on the Atkins diet. As I've been saying here for awhile, they should actually study the diet BEFORE saying it's unhealthy. Unfortunately, the people conducting the study approached The Atkins Center for funding. I think that taints the study but you may not hear that from the establishment because they may not be too happy to discuss how almost all of the medical studies are funded...
The New Scientist reports on this latest Artificial Island. This is a growing trend and I think it's great. But then I always enjoy being around water.

Although I tend to be extremely skeptical of these types of figures, I could believe this one. I read that there are 22,000 varieties of edible fruits in the world, most in the tropical rainforests. Too bad that our diet only consists of about a dozen.... But even moreso, too bad about what is going on there...
