Every so often I stumble across something that reminds me why I love Eat stop Eat.
Typically I find this type of stuff on the internet..usually in the form of the ever-conflicting diet advice you can find being passed around on-line.

But today…Today was different.
I found today’s Diet Confusion in a research paper.
Here’s the weird part..I wasn’t looking for Diet Advice, I was reading on the topic of Alcohol.
Specifically on the topic “Is Alcohol Consumption a Risk Factor For Weight Gain and Obesity?”

Now remember…this isn’t my diet advice. And, it’s not ‘Paleo Friendly’ so remember…I didn’t write this.
But the basic idea is that we need to be concerned with “Fat Balance” (along with calorie balance) and that a positive fat balance is a much easier way to induce weight gain than a positive carbohydrate balance.
Anyway here it is (All the proof you will ever need that the simple answer of Eat Stop Eat is all you need…)

I warn you, it’s a tough read, but it perfectly emphasis my point.
Just find an easy way to eat less.

PS- In defense of this particular paper, the rest of the information was of higher quality then this particular excerpt.
