1/ I’ll be interviewing @KetoCarnivore soon. In preparation, I watched this talk of hers from 2019 that I found very interesting...
2/ She provides some counter opinion analysis regarding both simplified metrics of “nutrient density” and the protein leverage hypothesis (ie @tednaiman). Or more specifically, the challenge in these approaches having potential bias that isn’t easily apparent...
3/ To be sure, I don’t have a very strong opinion myself in this area as I tend to focus more on lipid trafficking (and generally try to avoid the nutrition debates overall).
Moreover, I’m still plotting to do @tednaiman’s P:E diet as an experiment soon along w/bloodwork...

A thread on two diets with differences in WHAT and WHEN to eat.
Low-fat, three meals plus snacks (my HistoricDiet™)
vs
Low-carb, 4 hour TRF (time restricted feeding)

There is a lot of chatter on social media debating whether a low-carb/keto diet can improve health, and perhaps prevent certain disease. Much of this chatter turns out to be covert vegan disdain for consuming animal products, which confounds any discussion of the real question:
Does consuming less carbohydrate improve health and prevent or reduce the severity of long term chronic disease? We can't really know for sure given the prohibitions against conducting RCTs to find out. IRBs won't approve such trials. Subjects would never actually comply.
1/ While I haven't talked about it yet, I've been #carnivore throughout August as an experiment. But I switched to #KetoAF (basically carnivore, but with higher fat-to-protein ratio) for this final week before the month is over. <I took labs at the switch off, of course>
2/ Credit to @siobhan_huggins for twisting my arm into this as it has been quite illuminating. One sneak preview observation is that it truly is the most satiating of anything I've tried to date. I've found I can straight up consume less food overall while at these ratios...
3/ Also, mega props to @KetoCarnivore, who has really pioneered some excellent work in this area. I'm excited to see what her new data shows along with the many others working through these new parameters.
@siobhan_huggins will record a video on this experience fairly soon.
