Hi David, I've just spent an entertaining couple of hours reading all the posts in the various blogs linked to this thread. I admire the fact tht you didn't let Chris drag you into his little tirade, As I said in my post a the end of the Raisin Hell blog, "who cares". The result of the fructose free regime speak for themselves. If part of the reason these so called "experts" criticise your book, is because there is not enough "hard" evidence, then it would be an interesting exercise to ask your supporters to offer anecdotal evidence by way of actual results. Mine speak for themselves. Immediate weight loss, (and I'm eating foods I love and had previously denied myself), and my blood work shows definte improvement across the board. I don't know if it would help your case or not, but I'm sure there are many people who are subscribers to this blog who have had similar results.
I say Keep up the great work, and detractors be damned. If There is one important fact that stands out about the fructose free way of life is, it can't do any harm. Sure some of the people who criticise the book may have a point about "leaps of faith" and "not enough evidence". However I can't see anybody who says that cutting out Fructose will do any harm. In fact there can only be positive results. Can anybody cite any evidence that reducing frutose your diet will harm you? None I've seen. Go David!!!
