And diabetes where fats and proteins do not play a direct role.


Omega 6 fats reduce the ability of the body to process sugar.

Consuming a lot of omega 6 fats causes diabetes.

As pointed out above in the thread, normal weight people can get T2 diabetes. Sugar is the problem, particularly fructose. Like alcohol, fructose is metabolized by the liver and causes fatty deposits in the liver. Somewhere in this you foul up the glucose metabolism and cells won’t take in excess glucose.

My stepdad is skinny as a rail and has worked himself like a dog his whole life. In recent years he has developed T2 diabetes. He is a recovering alcoholic (15 years sober) and eats a low fat diet because that is what doctors and my mother have told him to do for decades. I am sure the drinking did damage his liver, but it never gets a chance to recover with all the sugar and starches he eats. The diabetes meds also make him constantly hungry, but he does so much physical labor he still stays skinny in his late 60s.

Men who eat chocolate or meat likely have excess iron. Alcohol increases absorption of iron. Excess iron causes diabetes.

People who drink alcohol are healthier.

If so-called scientists were testing rats to figure out wolf physiology they would be dismissed with laughter. Yet they can release rat studies and claim it has something to do with humans and people line up to accept it.

Every once in a while I see a human interest story, like the 94 year old lady in Montana who still rides a horse and manages her ranch and drinks a glass of whiskey and has a cigar every day. Lol.

Specifically, it is “palmitic acid,” out of the fatty acids:

When I went through Tokyo last April, I discovered I had a bunch of yen from a previous trip. So ... I splurged on some wagyu beef.

That was the most tender, flavorful beef I had ever had. So, so delicious.

Their website is full of rainbow flags and haggard-looking “researchers”, I suspect they are militant communist vegans. Veganism is a religion make no doubt. It has an orthodoxy and a dogma. Personally, most vegans are mentally ill just like most other liberals. Busybody idiots who just want to control you. And anyway who ever heard of “The Physiology Society”. I have a study written up by the Tinfoil Hat Society that has convincing evidence the moon is made of cheese

If you ate what the vegans ate you would be crazy, too.

Adults don’t need any carbohydrates in their diet, although a few grams per day won’t hurt. You can live on just fats and proteins and be much healthier.

Interesting. I had not heard of the iron/diabetes hypothesis before. I will dig into it. Not that my parents don’t eat red meat, but they mostly stick to chicken breast because it is low fat.

As much of a positive experience as I have had with a low carb/high fat diet I can’t change my parents minds from what they have been told for decades. Doesn’t matter how old or well educated the kids get, parents just don’t listen to them. My kids will probably have the same problem with me.

Eric Hoffer had some interesting observations about the correlation between political radicals and oddball dietary practices, such as vegetarianism or the “proper” way to chew one’s food. He compared it to a secular purification ritual.
