Thanks, however I'm somewhat reticent given all the reasons for not eating veg in the first place

I'm not sure one is meant to strain at all. It was never a problem prior to changing my diet. What I'm talking about is stool that doesn't seem to move out of the body without notable effort. As if it's not soft enough. (tmi, but we're all adults)

It isn't regularity, I understand there is less compulsion. The problem is that passing stool requires strain and intervention. Sometimes accompanied by a particularly metalish odour.

I eat cooked beef as a burger for breakfast, some cooked beef, sardines and salmon for lunch, cooked beef, belly pork, chicken and liver for dinner. In total about 6-700g food cooked in butter/tallow/ sometimes EVOO (not technically carnivore but healthy). I take no medication and am not...

With regard to the toxins and antinutrients in plants, is there any evidence that the effect do outweight the benefits?

I've been trying zero carb/carnivore since february. I can't say I feel any different. It hasn't improved my constipation at all. Unfortunately the community doesn't seem to understand that, in offering a very radical diet (at least that's how it's perceived), treating people that struggle badly...

Good old Dr Greger and his penchant for cherry picking whatever ssuits his argument

Dreadful 'article'. The Guardian is on a pro-vegan mission for sure

Thanks. What does Denise say about this sort of research? I haven't read any of her books. N=1 is all well and good, but health issues can manifest over time. Diabetes for example if you spend years eating junk sugar. That's how I believe I got hypoglycemia

Right, that's what's so frustrating about this. I have no alternative. High carb? No thanks that wrecked my metabolism; pasta rice bread were staples for so long that I couldn't see how you could eat differently. That and of course relying on junk food to deal with carb crashes. That's certainly...

The keto community at large. This isn't aimed at individuals, but that there is a trend, IMO, toward not addressing claims like this. This is a particularly thorough sounding refutation and as such it needs to be addressed and that is what I'm looking for. If we are wrong about fat then...

Chris Kresser and Dr Joel Khan, a vegan i believe, had a discussion online. General consensus was that the former won. Naturally vegans and low fat fans were not happy. However I came across this which seems to offer a particularly detailed analysis of the sience regarding sat fats. I'm deeply...

I have read vitamin e is found almost entirely outside of animal food. What are the best animal/carnivore sources thereof?

what is the best animal-based source of magnesium?

It would be very good to see the science settled but that will take a while yet. It's a shame because eggs are relatively cheap and otherwise extremely nutritious, there's no doubt about it. TBH that article is a bit of a double edges sword because it says "The authors say there is now “no...

I hope not. But I find it very difficult to get past the claims regarding cholesterol and fat.

that's a lot of eggs!

Is it, or are you reporting what they think? Confused.

My local NHS will not treat people if they eat 'extreme' or 'fad' diets, and keto is one they consider as such. If you have problems you will simply be told to eat properly. They have posters up advertising the standard advive: eat less salt, no saturated fat etc.
