LOW CARB / KETO PING!!!
As I’ve mentioned numerous times, the Left will fight Keto tooth-and-nail, as they fully understand that people demanding animal fat cannot co-exist with their plans to end meat production world-wide, so now they engage Harvard.
On a related topic, one of my ping-ee’s reminded me of the following article, which I had posted here 2 months ago, showing how being in Ketosis helps out in fighting off influenza - which may well be our best defense against Coronavirus, at least until a vaccine is developed.
“Ketogenic diet helps tame flu virus”

Tried Atkins when I was 23. Thought I was fat at 123 lbs. I suffered terribly for a week (went into ketosis, lost weight). We have a joke that I hate my best friend’s husband since I met him one homicidal night in the throes of Keto Flu.
As a female, afraid to try again. Most males seem to do OK. Might be able to get rid of grains, etc. but fruit will be hard.
Anyone have any ideas for Keto for a 62 year old heavy broad that suffered on it before?
Bob, please put me on your ping list. I went onto intermittent fasting (16 - 8) two weeks ago and tomorrow plan to add low-carb diet onto the regimen.
By the way, I was pleasantly surprised how easy it has been to remain strictly on the intermittent fasting.
I have had good results following Trim Healthy Mama, gradual weight loss of about 40 lbs and a lot less inflammation.
The basic premise behind THM is that most of us really dont have a lifestyle that needs two fuel sources at every meal- ie both carbs and fats, so we burn one and store the other. Separating them by three hours, getting some protein with every meal, and avoiding frankenfoods. Not as aggressive as Keto, and more sustainable over the long haul in my experience
