Americans never fell in love with a low fat diet. Our diet is extremely high in fat and individuals that are obese consume much a much higher amount than average. By very low fat, I am saying reduce saturated fat to near 0 and limit intake of unsaturated fat to 30g or less a day.

- eatfruitnoteggs 10y agoWhat about instead of fat, wheat and sugars, we eat whole plant foods, which are the most physiologically appropriate things to put into our bodies?
- prostoalex 10y agoPure vegan diets work for some, yet lead to feelings of constant hunger, weakness, lack of energy, sleepiness or headaches in others. As a result, people who try them frequently revert back to their old ways with vengeance when they need that extra boost of energy, and yo-yo dieting usually leads to worst outcomes than no dieting at all. If a pure vegan diet worked for you and your gut bacteria, that's great. It's a challenge for a lot of others.
