    Which famous "Revolution" started in 1972 involves urine checking and ketosis, which can cause bad breath?

    Question #43622. Asked by gmackematix. (Jan 21 04 11:44 PM)

    The discovery that:
    "Sugar is the greatest evil that modern industrial civilisation has visited upon the countries of the Far East and Africa." Nyoiti Sakurazawa:


    Dr Michael Somogyi of the Jewish Hospital of St. Lexies, pointed out that a study of 4,000 diabetic cases conducted by him and his associates over a period of fourteen years, revealed that virtually all adult victims of diabetes can be restored to normal health without insulin injections."
    As diabetes can be prevented and controlled by diet there is also much evidence that the escalation of the disease can be related to the amount of sugar we consume. In 1972 Dr Banting (of Banting & Best)pointed out:
    "The incidence of diabetes has increased proportionately with the per capita consumption of sugar."
    (F.G. Banting, Strength and Health magazine, 1972.)

    What about:
    Radioimmunoassay

    The discovery of Radioimmunoassay by Dr. Rosalyn Sussman Yalow, PhD, and Solomon Berson, MD,in their studies of the metabolism of insulin labeled with radioactive iodine which revolutionized medical research.
    Their work established that at least two major types of diabetes exist. They are now known as Type 1 and Type 2.

    While all this is correct and interesting, what I am looking for has "Revolution" in its title.

    Sounds like Dr Atkins' New Diet Revolution

    When you deprive your body of carbohydrates it goes into ketosis to burn fat for energy. This is the premise behind the Atkins diet and 1972 sounds about right for its introduction. I've lost 27 pounds by cutting carbs.
