Then do keto or carnivore and you dont have to fast (has to be high fat) or feel hungry (which is often carb withfrawal).

Tried keto, lost a little bit of weight at first, but then found it very easy to over-eat and gain weight. Was tracking with pee sticks pretty religiously. The carnivore diet sounds unhinged to my naive ears.

  I do carnivore and it breaks my heart that people dismiss it so much. It is just a flat out miracle diet.

    Ditto. I'm more than two years into it an honesty I'd be dead without it. And eating this way I naturally fall into an "intermittent fasting" schedule, because that's all I want to eat.

  You should do blood ketone & glucose metering if you want accurate debigging (cgm bllod would be pro debugging)

Keto diet changed my life. More energy, focus, mental balance, etc. it’s astounding. Processed carb foods must be truly poison

Not sure meat only diet is advised. Let alone if everyone would adopt a meat only diet it wouldn't be sustainable. The meat industry is already a major contributor to biosphere destruction.

  The Inuit seemed to do very well on it, before they were introduced to grains and other starches.

    Last time I checked the Inuit didn't have a large scale meat industry that kills billions of animals each year and that pollutes and destroys our biosphere and uses huge amount of resources. The Inuit or any other tribes live with Nature and preserve it. We don't - we do the opposite.

      Wait until you find out how much energy, pollution and waste you created to write that.
      - uxcolumbo 4y ago
        Yep - you're right. Hence why accelerating the transition away from fossil fuels is key. But suggesting to switch to a meat only diet to be healthy is not a solution to our climate crisis. In fact it would worsen it.

        The real problem is people. What strategy do we have to reduce the world population? Is that topic too taboo? Because it's the core issue.

        World population is projected to stabilize by the end of this century, so I'm not sure population is the main problem. The issue is our consumption habits and how much GHG and pollution it creates - mostly by the West [0] So a more concerted effort to transition away from relying on meat to feed the world is one step we can make [1] Energy is another, which is happening slowly, EU for example is now accelerating the use of more sustainable energy sources - renewables and nuclear.

I think that fasting is completely different than keto/carnivore. Do you really want to feel less hungry by replacing carbs with fat/protein? Fasting seems to purge your system and your body gets used to digesting sometimes and being clear other times. Also it seems fasting has aging benefits. Lowering calories leads to longer lifespan. And fasting might be one of the only ways to metabolize senescent cells (autophagy)
