The word is UNHEALTHY …. NOT unhealthful.
In no dictionary can I find this word ‘unhealthful’. So WHY USE IT when a perfectly good word already exists?
CNN is great at inventing words. Let’s at least keep these stupidities off this website.
Thank You

Dr. Dean Ornish is a quack, plain and simple. He is on the advisory board of the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine, which is just a front for PETA. Do an exact phrase google of “The Dietary Delusions of Dean Ornish” to get the skinny on this fool. If you want to save your life don’t waste your time on this book.

I was very satisfied with the book, the time it took to get here and the price.

Four years ago, at the weight of 275 lbs, I started on a low-fat, high-carb diet fashioned after the advice of Ornish and McDougal. I now weigh 330 lbs, after losing to about 240 lbs, then gaining to 310 before I gave up on low-fat. When I quit trying to diet, my weight stabilized at 330, where it has been for the last year, not even varying when I started aerobics and strength training.
Obesity is a disease caused by dieting; normal people do not have to consciously restrict their diet in order to maintain their proper weight.
I expect that the reaction of the low-fat fad apologists will be that I didn’t do it right. I don’t buy that. A critical review of the research on obesity has convinced me that there has been no meaningful research on the subject. As a consequence, I conclude that those who claim to understand the problem are lying. The abuse hurled between the low-fat faddists and the low-carb faddists is a lot like a smoky fire; no light, only heat.
Addendum: July 2004. I am now at 238 lbs, where I’ve been for about a year now, and I can bench press about 275. I lost that weight doing exactly the opposite of Ornish’s recommendation — a high-fat, low-carb diet. In the process, I also lost my arthritis, which went away suddenly and completely about 3 days after I eliminated all grains from my diet. I have also lost my high blood pressure and my high cholesterol. I have proven that Ornish is wrong.
