My opinion has always been, balanced is best.
If you have to stick to a 'high' anything diet, make it vegetables.
I practice semi-Keto. But it works for me. I have a hard time controlling my self when it comes to eating/snacking. I find that high protein/high fat foods are more filling per calorie and stops me from devouring high carb snacks.
I think people get turned on by the near-instant weight drop when you cut out carbs from your diet and lose water weight in the first few days.
Keto is also expensive and harder to stick to exactly than I'm willing to put in the effort for. I supplement 'no carbs' with 'some carbs' from whole grains, beans, and veggie-carbs to help bring down the cost.
The healthiest thing to do (imo) is to a) not over-eat, b) avoid added sugar, c) get your micro nutrients, d) mix it up
- gnulinux 8y agoMy personal and limited experience also has been low-sugar, mid-carb, high-fiber (lots of broccoli), high-protein, high-fat diet seems to make me feel better. Although, it goes without saying, feeling better isn't isomorphic to being healthy, living longer, or maximizing your bodily functions (such as muscle building, better cognition or better sex life).
