The Diet Wars
This episode of the PBS documentary program Frontline discusses the various diet programs and asks questions about how they work, what leads to health and what just makes us all fatter.
It's a fairly unbiased view of the various plans but really just kind of falls short or really being honest about weight issues. Indeed it talks about the popular Atkins and South Beach plans, but not really in detail. They even show a photo of Dr. Phil's book, but never say a word about the plan or what it entails.
This mirrors every news report I've seen on weight loss. Eat less and move around more seems to be the consensus. Though they do suggest eating more "whole" grain breads and pasta and less "white" foods including sugar and potatoes.
Despite the lack of detailed specifics, I did like the information. Pick up the DVD from SWOCC.
