Dr. Peter Attia
  1. vimeo.com/45485034
    Dr. Attia gives a great talk on the history of the "low-fat" indoctrination and how it's entirely politically motivated and how the science has actually been quite clear about the relationship between dietary fat and heart disease risk (ie - the scientific community has been pretty clear that there is no link).

Recommended Books

Recommended Books "A" - The Science
  1. Request for Submissions - Books - books only please
  2. "Art and Science of Low Carb" - Phinney and Volek
    Arguably the most comprehensive book on the LCHF lifestyle ever written. Lots of "science" but presented in a "understandable" way - a "must read".
  3. "Good Calories, Bad Calories" - Gary Taubes
    This is similar in content to Why We Get Fat, but much more detailed. This is a harder read, but may be worth it for many people.

Setting up MFP for "Net Carb" Display "A" - Details
  1. Overview
    CavemanKeto Website
    Overview of the process to install the scripts required to have MFP Food Diary calculate and display "net" carbs
    You need to load the Tampermonkey (Chrome) or Greasemonkey (Firefox) extension in order to use the scripts. Once you have it installed, if you click on the .JS files in the following links, the extension should pick them up and ask if you want to install them. Then, make sure your diary includes both carbs and fibre, and the one script will calculate net carbs and give you the fun little graph. The other script will allow you more control over adjusting your macro goals in the settings page.
    Links to the individual scripts are provided below
