"Now that the Christmas cookies and New Year's Eve toasts have been replaced with resolutions and regrets, many people are scouring the Internet for ways to lose the extra pounds they packed on during the holiday season."Among the ABCNews experts is one David Katz, an AdipOprah expert and IMHO prototype diet expert slut.
If you read the article, you will find that he is favorable to only one diet:
"Katz: "[The Flat Belly Diet] generally healthful, with an emphasis on foods noted as being good for insulin resistance. My lab actually studied the effects of this short term, and they were quite good..."He also stated:
'There are some very silly -- and even dangerous -- ways to lose weight,' said Dr. David Katz, co-founder and director of the Yale Prevention Research Center."As to the latter statement, true - like his and Jorge Cruise's 3-Hour Diet. (Which is not a way to lose weight, IMHO. It is a way to lose your money to these IMHO scoundrels.)
BTW, Katz claims that diets don't work, yet he authors books on dieting.
(Don't fear. Diets do work. In fact, they must work. Only the wrong ones, i.e., those recommended by the experts, don't.)
What this IMHO crook fails to mention is that Prevention Magazine is associated with this diet, i.e., the only one he considered favorably, and that he contributes "a daily blog to Prevention Magazine."
Think he does that for no reward?
Answer - no.
Think ABCNews made this conflict of interests known?

Answer - no.
Think ABCNews would be all over a story about a doc who had an interest in the company that manufactured the drugs he/she endorsed/prescribed? (As long as he/she was not an ABCNews expert, that is.)

Answer - yes.
Also, this most favored diet promises weight loss of "up to 15 pounds in 32 days!"
This is 3.28 pounds per week - far faster than is considered "safe" by Katz himself. ("...you should not be losing more than two pounds a week if you want your weight loss to be both safe and permanent." From Katz's Foreword to The 3-Hour Diet book.)
Bottom line is do not believe the MSM in the domain of fitness, at the very least.
You are dealing with a bunch of IMHO thieves whose loyalties are to their pocketbooks and not to you.
