The National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute (!) did a two year study which found...wait...this is being called a landmark study...
...which found that people can lose weight on a variety of diets — including low-fat plans and low-carb ones — as long as they consume fewer calories.
Next up, the Institute of Silly Walks will be reporting on their study: Exercise burns calories.




Who paid for this report?
Donor thinking their money was going to help people in real need or federal government money!

I wondered the same thing. Pretty much a waste of money no matter where it came from

Wait, the institute is part of U S Department of Health and Human Services.

No suprise there. Another waste of our taxpayer dollars. Expect more of this nonsense from the democrats and the Obama administration.

So this happens no matter what administration is in office. Nothing changes in these types of arenas. Let us hope it did cost as much as the new F22 Raptor or the new fleet of 28 helicopters for the President. Now those things can make a taxpayer upset!
