Just to clarify -- I don't object to the dairy inclusion, I just wish they  
would include info for those who don't do dairy.  All low carb health  
professionals speak of paleolithic "hunter-gatherer" diets but they did not  
include dairy.  So to include seems to be a big change.  I also don't  
understand why they say monosaturated fat should be emphasized yet their sample  
menus do not do this.  I posted my question on the book web site comment  
section but it doesn't look like comments and/or replies appear to the  public.

Finished  Volek and Phinney.  I think it was Adrienne who objected to the 
dairy  allowances in the book.  Agree.  Skip Chapter 17, the recipes  
section.  Not only do they have plenty of dairy but also recommend  xylitol and 
Splenda.
