Diets low in carbohydrates have got some good press in recent months, but a study suggests they are no better than conventional calorie-counting regimes.

"While these diets are effective in the short term, weight loss results from reduced calories, not carbohydrate restriction," said Dena Bravata, a lead researcher on the paper which is published in this week's edition of the Journal of the American Medical Association

Low-carb diets no quick fix: study

Don Gorske is already in the Guinness Book of World Records for eating Big Macs ? but it's not about the fame anymore.

Gorske, who downed his 19,000th Big Mac Tuesday, said he wouldn't know what else to eat if it weren't for Big Macs.

"I'd be clueless," he said, adding that he ate a piece of pizza recently, but it "just wasn't the same."

"It wasn't my first choice," he said.

Gorske, 49, of Fond du Lac, eats two Big Macs per day and drinks little else beside Coke. He also keeps track of everything he eats in a notebook.

] Studies have indicated that drinking alcohol in
] moderation can cut heart attack risks, and new research
] supports the theory that the same holds true for
] preventing strokes.
] "Light to moderate alcohol consumption may be protective
] against ... stroke while heavy alcohol consumption
] increases the risk," said Kristi Reynolds, a doctoral
] student at Tulane University and co-author of the study,
] which is published in this week's Journal of the American
] Medical Association.
] Tulane University researchers reviewed 35 studies from
] 1983 to 2002 and concluded that one to two drinks a day
] is associated with an almost 30 percent lower risk of
] stroke, the third leading cause of death in the United

I will drink to that! :)
