but calling carbs "completely unnecessary" is a bit extreme.
It is actually scientific fact.
but calling carbs "completely unnecessary" is a bit extreme.
There are cultures, like the French for e.g. who have retained their eating habits and hence show lower incidence rates compared to the UK or the US
And one that refutes itAt last some science. Think this may be relevant

And who in no way eat a WFPB diet?
Animal based foods are everywhere in France.
Yes. But they are not the ONLY foods in a traditional French diet. The French diet cannot be classified as Keto or VLCD or even LCHF. It is a balanced diet that has been tuned to the physiology of the local populace over centuries. The same cannot be said about many other countries. The average UK diet for e.g. has been influenced substantially by other cultures in a way and at a speed which is bound to have adverse effect on the general health of people.
@bulkbiker I agree that I have a very long way to go. I am still on meds and the diet will have accomplished its goals if I can maintain my current numbers by significantly reducing my medication or even stopping them completely. I think what can be considered as a pleasent way of eating is very personal. I intend to use this thread to document my experiences. I don't know why those who have tried before me have failed but if and when I fail, this thread should serve as a record of what went wrong.
I will have some results tomorrow evening. Should I still put them in a new thread? I was hoping one long thread will keep all the information in one place. Just a thought.@target6point4 this thread is falling off the watched list for most of us, so may I suggest that when you have some results to share then you open up a new thread for it.
You can try this thread, but I found out that when a thread goes dormant, then it becomes increasingly harder to bump it back up into the front page news, which is what most of us use. I do a daily scan of that list, but miss many of the smaller interest topics that can show for only a couple of hours in the Top 20 because of all the boiler plate questionnaires for fasting blood levels etc that quickly fill it.I will have some results tomorrow evening.

Can't you just follow the thread by setting an alert?You can try this thread, but I found out that when a thread goes dormant, then it becomes increasingly harder to bump it back up into the front page news, which is what most of us use.

Just tell us the food combinations requiredI think I have identified the magic chemical they are trying to synthesize. Hoping to make my fortune by patenting it so cannot reveal it.
