Yes there were plants. But, just beacuse cows eat grass doesn't mean we do. My theory is that arctic regions induce a stress hormone response. And, maybe after generations of this chronic response, which raised insulin, may have tweaked their genetics for a higher need for gluconeogenesis. The infant mortality rate makes…

I would think that a mostly meat and fat diet would naturally put them into ketosis. From what I understand, we may have developed a bigger brain by trading the energy it takes to digest plants. Nutrients in meat are more bioavailable and the energy in fat provides more than twice as many calories per gram than…

These were just some facts that I have found interesting. I would think that a diet of mostly meat and fat, especially throughout the ice ages where there were almost no plants growing, that it would naturally lead to a state of ketosis since there wouldn't be enough natural carbohydrates to stay any considerable length of…

What evidence can you provide to support your claim?

Exercise is very important. But, my point was that weight lose is 80% hormone response controlled. You don't necessarily need exercise to lose weight. Too much exercise can actually make you stall a bit if not executed correctly. I am now on a slow movement resistance training schedule after losing 85 pounds, eliminating…

You're right. It is irrelevant. Check out Paul Saladino. You shouldn't have had to cut out many veggies other than starches. And, there are vegan ketoers so too much meat for you shouldn't have been an issue either. Finding it frustrating and giving up is an emotional response as stated before. Our species has survived for…

There actually a lot of science to back me up. Check out Ben Bickman, Tim Noakes, and Ken berry to start with. Lowering carbs enough to be in ketosis allows you to fuel almost every part of your body on an alternate fuel source. In contrast, Glucose can only be used by a few parts. In every aspect there is a benefit for…

I agree that it may not be for everyone. With that said. There are many factors that come into play when trying to optimize yourself in any way. Emotions, habits, cravings, schedules, social cues, medical problems, etc. If we take the weight lose aspect out of it right, and only focus on what happens to our bodies when we…

I would almost agree. However, I have indeed lost weight before on many number of diets. Cutting out all processed foods and eating "healthy" with some sucess. But, in the long run ended up not sticking and almost none of these effects except for the weight lose. This is the case for the majority of people following any…

I am 36. I've lost 85 pounds in 9 months. Every single marker of inflimation is gone. All of my aches and pains are gone. My mind is magnitudes more focused and clear. I have energy all day and jump out of bed with more vigor than when I was a kid. My grocery bill has been cut by 75%. I can smell now, which I could never…
