RE: Keto: Trendy Instagram Hype Or Serious Nutritional Concept? Sharing My Unpopluar Opinion

in #keto6 years ago (edited)

Oh I love that article on masteringdiabetes.org, thanks a lot for directing my attention to it! In fact I hadn't found it earlier during my research.

My favourite part: "Ketosis Misconception #4: Carbohydrate is Not an Essential Nutrient".
How often have I tried to explain that to people, but they just don't wanna listen :-)

Whenever you tell someone that you just had some pasta for lunch, they're like: Wuuuuuut, the evil carbs? And I am like: Did you ever do sports in your life? Then you'd know that without carbs, you're actually nothing :-)

Thanks for stopping by and helping to spread a more rational view on such diets.

Happy to share! I always like refreshing my brain with actual science. ;)

I actually had a client years ago shocked when I was talking about eating a baked potato. Topped with black beans, salsa and avocado--not a bunch of butter, cheese and bacon. Life isn't worth living without spuds!

I'm trying to catch some of the presenters during the Plant Fit Summit right now, too. Lots of world class athletes carbing the heck up! 💪
