"Can't build muscle on a ketogenic diet. You need insulin spikes for that."
Oh god. The ignorance. It hurts.

"Many of the "supporters" of Poptarts here happen to be some of the fittest and healthiest on the site."
Well, maybe if my *job* was kickboxing instructor and working out for 6 hours a day, I wouldn't gain weight by eating pop tarts.
My nurse practitioner tried to argue with me that Dr. Atkins died in his fifties from a heart attack. He didn't, he slipped and fell on ice and bumped his head in his seventies.
What are some of the rampant myths about low-carb high-fat you see from so-called "professionals"?

I can't even tell my mom about my diet. She would worry and nag me to no end. Nothing I say or show her would convince her that Keto could be healthy.0
