Of course exercise isn't a diet - rather, it's part of healthy
lifestyle.  Our bodies need exercise as much as they need good
nutrition for good health.  I'd actually argue that prescribed diets
are a crutch for those needing to heal/repair their relationship with
food and combat the poor nutritional habits which render so many
people sick.  And with respect to weight loss diets, many of these are
actually called "fad diets" - and rightly so.

when discussing this issue, it may be best define what "carb" rich
means, exactly.  certainly whole grains, fruits and such are not
included in the "carb" rich diet you reference.  I also note that
there is a lot of evidence showing that diets rich in protein lead to
cancer, heart disease, etc.
