Inflammation, likely caused by too many carbs and/or seed oils.

Nichts on them. Always followed a low carb diet. No simple sugars or refined flour products. Oils consisted of organic tallow/lard, olive oil, European style butters.

Even though I still believe inflammation plays a role. Hereditary? Brother passed at 61 acute myocardial infarction. Father, triple bypass 35 yrs ago. Still going strong today at 89. Hardly any meds at all.

Thx 4 ur thought on this!

“Always followed a low carb diet. No simple sugars or refined flour products. “


Complex sugars are still carbs. Fruits are still carbs. Whole flour products are still carbs (+ they contains nasty things like lectins, tanins, gluten). They (except fructose which is even worse for your metabolism) all end up as glucose just like simple sugars and trigger almost the same bad reactions in your body : insuline resistance, fat storage, Randle cycle activation, ketones decrease...

How can that then be called a “low carb diet”?? Do you mean the real definition of low carb according to keto-carnivore ie < 40g total carbs (fibers included) per day or something else?
