[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ve done it for many years, so yes you can stay on it. No, [b]your body doesn’t need carbs,[/b] and neither does your brain, no, keto does not destroy your kidneys.[/quote] Please cite medical research. [/quote] NP and [b]too lazy to go looking[/b], but on super low carb diets, your body manufactures them itself. If you need proof that the human body doesn’t need carbs, the existence of humans in the Arctic Circle, who survived pretty much on meat and fish (they ate plants and thus carbohydrates where available, but it’s not like the Arctic is a rich source of plant-based foods), is it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inuit_cuisine I’m not defending a keto diet for widespread consumption - nothing could be more tedious than listening to a friend calculate macros - but no, we don’t really need carbs. They sure are tasty![/quote] Well you and/or PP shouldn't come here stating things as facts if you're not prepared to back up your assertions. Just because something "can" be done doesn't mean it should or that its healthy or sustainable long term. Improve your relationship with food and then you won't need to do any weird diets that eliminate or demonize entire food groups. [/quote] You’re right. The entire population of the Arctic Circle never existed. [/quote]
