> Real weight loss is caused by long term reduction of insulin levels It's not 2009 anymore. We have these drugs now, GLP-1 agonists, which directly increase insulin secretion, yet they're known to also cause weight loss comparable to bariatric surgery: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glucagon-like_peptide-1 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glucagon-like_peptide-1 >Alongside glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide (GIP), GLP-1 is an incretin; thus, it has the ability to decrease blood sugar levels in a glucose-dependent manner by enhancing the secretion of insulin. Beside the insulinotropic effects, GLP-1 has been associated with numerous regulatory and protective effects. Unlike GIP, the action of GLP-1 is preserved in patients with type 2 diabetes and substantial pharmaceutical research has therefore been directed towards the development of GLP-1-based treatment Your low-carb lunacy is long outdated.
