[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What an asinine idea. Eat a well-balanced diet rich in all whole foods. Stop with these ridiculous fads.[/quote]

[b]That’s what the standard American diet entails but how is that working out for us?[/b]

An elimination diet may be a good thing. Maybe 40-60% of our daily intake being carbs is what’s driving the obesity epidemic.

Not for nothing but our parent and grandparent generation ate tons of red meat , eggs, whole milk, and even organ meats like chopped liver and even with smoking, they’re healthier than we are. [/quote]

That is NOT what the standard American diet is. A standard American diet is mostly overprocessed foods, not enough veggies and fruits and not enough movement.

Our grandparents certainly did not eat a ton of red meat. It was expensive and mostly unaffordable. They ate meat at a much lower rate than we do. They did eat organ meat more than we do because it was so much cheaper. They also ate less of everything in general.

A well balanced diet rich in all kinds of foods is much better for your health long term. [/quote]

A well balanced diet isn’t really balanced as the standard American diet is heavily carb/sugar .

Fruits, Vegs, starches, grains , sauces , coffees and juices make up most of the diet . Americans today eat more fruit and vegetables and less meat than older generations but we aren’t getting any healthier .

It’s because fat is demonized  so butter, whole milk, liver, and red meat that were prominent parts of American diet in the 70s aren’t anymore these days
