So refined carbs are bad due to high glycemic index, too much fat is bad due to seratonin release, is a generally optimal diet then just lean meat and vegetables? We are running out of things to eat...
- tonyarkles 12y agoLean meat and vegetables seems like a pretty good diet to me! When I'm actually following that, I do need to add some fat, otherwise I'm feeling hungry all the time. Add a bit of fat (olive oil or butter, generally for me) and things are golden. Eggs work too!

- BasLeijdekkers 12y agoIt seems it is the carbohydrates that cause the seratonin release[1], not the fat. [1] http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8697046 http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8697046
