It is the addition of a limit on fats: "OILS: 2 tablespoonfuls a day. Includes: Butter, Coconut Oil, Peanut Oil, Palm Oil. Avoid Seed oils"
The addition is explained by one of the SA management: "What Dr Westman is saying is that if you are having difficulty in bringing down your body fat, limiting certain fats will enable your body to burn more adipose fat for energy (body fat) as apposed to dietary fat. Most people think they can consume copious amounts of fat and be unaffected, this is not the case with some people".
"What fats?: Mostly all fats, most people believe that being on a LCHF program means piling on the fats, this, we believe is not correct, whilst you shouldn't obsess with limiting fats, so too, should you not obsess with adding fat. Including healthy fats are great, just don't TRY to over-consume."

Janet thanks for that update. It makes so much sense.
