Instead of picking marcos and trying to fit your diet around them I think a better place to start is just consistently logging your food each and every day - the healthful foods you like to eat, want to eat and think is sustainable. After you have a few weeks of food logs take a look and see where your carbs are at and if…

Regulation of intestinal growth in response to variations in energy supply and demand The variability in nutrient absorption may be related to factors influencing nutrient delivery to the intestine under CR, namely, the type of nutrients provided in the CR diet, extent of energy restriction and its duration.

Here's an interesting blog post by James Crownover worth reading: The Ketogenic Diet and Chronic pain On a personal note, one of the reasons I still maintain a fairly strict low carb diet is because of this. I had no idea how bad I felt before low carb (6 months into eating proper food, exercising and losing 42lbs I…

Thanks guys. :)

I'm not terribly excited about any one study but it's proper science like all of NuSi's studies to date - and that I am excited about because it's so rare in nutrition. It raises good, testable questions and adds to the knowledge base. I know low carb works differently for me than calorie restriction alone and I'm very…

I don't know what a lot do or don't do but here's some more information about Zach Bitter's nutrition - he's absolutely a low carb runner, IMO. If someone is adding back in carbs they're ensuring their glycogen stores are replenished. It seems like a careful balance for Zach and he's aiming for the best of both worlds -…

Zach Bitter (low carb athlete) set the record for the fastest recorded 100 mile trail run. (12:08:36) "It kind of starts a week out for a goal race. First 4-5 days of week I go very low carb. 1-2 days out I bring back some carbs; usually in the form of potatoes, raw honey, melons berries. Race day I rely on body fat for…

It's transient - more sodium helps in the beginning but you can eat low carb with adequate salt intake. But I agree she needs to see a doctor well versed in low carb diets because of the diuretic medication. OP, you really need to speak to someone about your medication before you begin.

I didn't link to this here (because it was clearly BS) but it popped up in the forums in the latest outbreak of low-carb-will-kill-you posts so it's worth mentioning the retraction due to "concerns with data integrity and an undisclosed conflict of interest by the lead author". Source

Lower carb was the answer for my husband. I only mention it because not once was he advised to cut back on grains, starches or sugar at all - it was fatty, spicy and acidic foods he was told to avoid and when that didn't work daily medication was prescribed which helped but didn't eliminate it.

I think you're starting from a weird place with this. Normal people buy the food/meat they can afford and cook daily - you don't need an abundant amount of time, money or space to cook and feed yourself. Spending hours each week cooking isn't an unrealistic, unattainable feat - it's what you do if you can't afford or don't…

I'm another abstainer. I can't eat the foods that cause cravings & compulsive/impulsive eating on a regular basis and maintain my weight. No matter how in control I feel in the beginning it always results in the same thing - it's like I build up a tolerance and the moderate/portioned amount soon is no longer enough. I need…
