Ming,
Well at least I'm not the only one with this experience! I do think there
is more to the carbohydrate issue, though I don't have all the answers. I
have been reading some very interesting older posts by Jeannie Brand-Miller
over on the PaleoDiet symposium. She seems to push for higher carbs, and
even sugary carbs.
One of the things she points out is that humans don't possess a taste for
sweets for no reason. It obviously evolved due to some survival
pressures. I wouldn't be surprised if having a minimum amount of sugars in
one's diet is beneficial, though this contradicts the usual advice.
Keith,
I've previously read the book you've mentioned. It's a bit dated, but it
seems solid. Unfortunately, there's not much of a take-home message other
than "everyone's different".
