Gary Taubes on Dr. Oz's radio show
Gary Taubes appeared on the radio show of Dr. Mehmet Oz on Feb. 24, 2011. The news peg was Gary's new book, Why We Get Fat -- which I got for my birthday and am reading happily.
Jimmy Moore, of the Livin' La Vida Low-Carb blog, podcast and video podcasts, has posted the Taubes interview in two parts on YouTube. Here are the links.

Carb mouthwash?
Finally, a good use for carbohydrate in sports?
Personal Best: With This Rinse, Performance Improve by Gina Kolata, in the New York Times. Yes, Gina Kolata, she of the disappointing hatchet job review of "Good Calories, Bad Calories." It seems that athletes who rinse their mouths with a carbohydrate-water solution get the same performance boost as those who just drink the stuff. And somehow, artificial sweetener doesn't produce the boost.
I first heard of this experiment -- or perhaps it was just one like it -- on the podcast of the science radio show WNYC RadioLab. Interesting stuff. I wonder if the same effect would be found whether or not the athlete is carb-burning or fat-burning. I will have to try to figure out which episode it was. If anyone knows, please drop a comment -- thanks.
