I actually practice IF. I feel so much better on days don’t eat. Maybe that’s part of the reason.
Thanks very much. I don’t know what my CAC score was when I started, but I’ve been taking “Koncentrated K” and D3 for over a year now.
K with MK7 is supposed to take the calcium out of the arteries and put it back where it belongs, including teeth.
About four months into this diet, I started noticing “something was up” so I asked my doc to run my T. The reading was 521. Average for a guy in his late 30’s.
I believe the diet heals the lining of the arteries, which is where nitric oxide is produced (secret of viagra).
Three years ago I also had bleeding gums when I brushed or flossed or used a toothpick. No more blood. I didn’t notice that until I saw Jordan Peterson say the same thing.
I had a descending tooth that my dentist said I would lose, due to bone loss from the gum disease. It has stablilized. I just ground it off level with the other front teeth.
This was me shooting pool on Christmas Eve of 2009 when I was about 245:

The diet is easy once you get past the first few weeks. I was keto for a while, limiting myself to 20g of carbs or less. Then I started hearing about the zero carb carnivore diet and embraced it.
Yes, I have started eating yogurt. Ralph’s has Chobani low fat plain Greek yogurt that’s high protein zero fat, low carb. Costco has similar.
To lose body fat, you want high protein vs low fat AND low carb. Watch a few videos by Ted Naiman talking about his PE diet. PE is the protein to energy ratio, where P is protein and E is energy in carbs plus fats, everything measured in grams. To lose fat you want at least 2:1. Beef is about 1:1, so are eggs, good for maintenance, or weight loss if you have a lot to lose.
Agree. Expect a lot more meatphobic "scientific" articles to come our way. Drip, drip, drip.
You can get plain, unflavored yogurt, Nancy’s or other brands. Kefir is good too. I actually love Goat Kefir. Go figure.
all the kefirs I’ve seen are loaded with sugar.
Its hard enough finding yogurt with only one or two grams of sugar.
