Gosh! Here I thought it was over eating!
Study brought to you by General Mills...eat wheat!
I go mostly paleo. We’ll see what happens...
Hardly my area of expertise, but it seems to me that a high carb diet leads to more obesity than high fat.
Paleo is great diet- add olive oil and (especially) coconut oil, and no wheat whatsoever
My thinking as well.
I eat a high fat diet. I sleep well and I have lost thirty pounds. Been on the diet for about 7 years. Weight is very stable. One question to ask though. Rats and people are not very similar. So what is this study supposed to tell us? How to waste grant money?
I’m carnivore .... fat fortify my meat, except for bacon (butter, olive oil, avocado oil) .... 65 lbs down, best health EVER.
So then Keto diets make you fat? Right.
Seems?
Next time you’re in a grocery store and see some lardo riding around in a cart, take a look at what’s in their basket.
Interesting. Its only one data point and maybe a coincidence, but now that I think of it the first time I got overweight happened the first time I had a grave yard shift job that messed with my sleep patterns.
I thought that fat was the most difficult thing for your body to turn into fat? Carbs being the easiest.
“Paleo is great diet- add olive oil and (especially) coconut oil, and no wheat whatsoever.”
I do. I occasionally us ghee as well.
I feel good, and my performance is good.
(Weightlifting, volleyball leagues and track & field sprints)
Humans aren’t lab rats, no matter how much Faux-Xi and Josef STOLIN seem to think they are.
A zillion other variables need to be controlled for.
Hi fat is bad for weight...unless you greatly reduce carb intake (ideally to keto levels)...then it is far better than other diets. But fat, overall, is EXCELLENT from a nutritional standpoint, despite what Fauchi and his bunch claim.
I thought it was sugar and carbs.
I'm sure there are carrots and celery buried somewhere under the sweetened cereal, pastries, and Doritos.
COVID cures obesity
I’ve been on keto for 4 months and have lost 20 lbs and counting. Twenty more lbs and I’m just above the weight I was when I got out of boot camp 40 years ago. Wheat and sugar are poison.
Looks like bogus research. No humans eat a diet that is 70% fat. In the real world excess carbohydrates are converted to fat by insulin, and fatty foods are often used for energy.
