Your brain needs fats. Your muscles need carbs. You need to exercise both.
Ill never forget the comment of my grandmother, a life-long surgical nurse to one of the top neurosurgeons in California.

My daughter was opening the fridge and eating handfuls of butter when she was tall enough to do so (abt 3 years old)
I called my grandmother and asked her about this
She said to me :
"let her do it, the brain needs fats to grow"
my daughter is smart as heck. She is 18 now and is wicked smart.

Also we benefit from the Norwegian gut biom... we can handle any lactose.
I think that gut biome transfers are actually a new genre of biomedical science... (recall the ulcer guy? he proved that ulcers were a bad bacteria.)

I've seen arguments in favor of fecal infusions (where they take fecal matter from someone with a healthy gut microbiome to someone with an unhealthy one). It has shown some promise in helping some rather stubborn illnesses. But still, these things take a long time.
