My point is how this is communicated to the public. It's nice that you have spend dozens or hundreds of hours reading ketogenic diet books, and have a clear idea about the limitations, tradeoffs, and risks of this.
Ordinary members of the public get the message "only eat chicken thighs, and don't eat lettuce". That's a long way from a diet that's healthy for ordinary people.
- hacktothefuture 9y agoCome on. I've never heard (no one has) the phrase, "don't eat lettuce". I've heard don't eat processed carbs, don't eat bread, don't eat pasta, don't eat simple sugars, don't eat potatoes.
- panglott 9y agoMaybe he was doing one of those "try a ketogenic diets for 30 days", or stumbled upon one of those keto advocates who only eats meat and lard. If all you read about low-carb diets is the first paragraph about any popular news story about them, then what you know is that low-carb diets are the ones where you can eat lots of meat and you should shun any foods with sugar or starches.
