Just out of curiosity, since it's the other end of the diet extremism: Have you tried an all complex carbs (so no sugar, no broken free carbs), low fat diet?
Are you concerned about other health parameters with your low carb diet? Like high IGF-1 or blood vessel and digestive health?
- hirundo 6y agoYes, I was deeply into the McDougall Program, even went to the week long training. I lost a bunch of weight on it. Then it seems that my body adapted and without changing the ingredients, my appetite returned, and so did the weight. Something similar happened to me with a low carb paleo diet years later. I've had to become more extreme to succeed. But I think that's because of the damage I've done to my own metabolism with a fork and spoon, and isn't true for most people. Most people, I think, would benefit greatly from changing to a complex carb diet from a Standard American Diet.
