I think the Eades believe that carb restriction is the single most important dietary "reform" that one should undertake. I'm guessing, but perhaps they regard carb reduction as responsible for 90% of the benefits of paleo. They do make a clear distinction between the purist, dilettante, and hedonist levels of compliance, and they do not insist that only the purist approach is worthwhile. I don't think it's wrong for them not to target their products only to purists. Todd Moody [log in to unmask]
