This is my general impression of Hofmekler's writing.  Some of it seems
well supported; other parts are pretty speculative.  When I was doing
the Warrior diet (maybe I'll try it again), I would sometimes have a
handful of macadamias in the morning, on the assumption that since they
are almost pure fat they'd have little impact on BG or insulin.  That
would give me a few hundred calories of fuel, if I thought I needed it
to get going.  Probably a psychological thing.
