I was totally with low carb and high fat, but now think it’s best low carb and low fat from meat.

Had to learn to love salmon.

salmon is a fatty fish; 30-50% fat depending on species

There’s such a thing as protein starvation - that’s when you eat too much protein and not enough fat. (learned this from an alaskan survival show - the guy killed a moose but still lost substantial weight eating only lean meat after a bobcat stole his cache of moosefat)

That leaves high protein, which is very tough on kidneys. In the Keto world, they replace carbs with fat and warn people to keep protein at a reasonably low level.
