I imagine many Asian folks who eat white rice as a daily staple (and incidentally are NOT fat) might think this is ridiculous. We make Amylase to digest starchy carbs for a very good reason.
We also have taste buds to taste and enjoy sweet fruits and honey. Off the top of my head I can’t think of any fat frugivores.
Nobody becomes diabetic eating mangoes, bananas and orange juice. Fruit is designed to be eaten. Dark chocolate has many proven health benefits. 🤷🏻♀️
My Japanese brother- and sister-in-law used to not be able to live without their rice, but on their own have now cut it out about a year ago, and have lost a good amount of weight.
Melanie Trump (middle aged and DEFINITELY not fat) aims to eat 7 servings of fruit per day. She values the antioxidants and flavonoids as they are extremely health promoting.
I could write for hours about the analgesic, antiinflammatory, nephroprotective, neuroprotective, and antimicrobial AND anti-aging effects of naringenin alone. If big Pharma could patent it they would. I have one friend who has been low-carbing for years, she isn’t aging well.
I am waiting to find out what is true after the awakening. Everything I have read about fruits and sugars has been almost shouted by MSM. I keep finding the truth is the opposite of what they shout.
Correct. First they demonized fats, now they are demonizing carbohydrates. The truth of the matter lies somewhere in between.
There are good fats (natural saturated fats such as butter, tallow and coconut oil) and there are bad fats (PUFA or polyunsaturated industrial seed/fish oils). Any fat that is liquid at room temperature goes rancid very quickly and is quite toxic at human body temp.
Likewise, there are good carbs (fruit, honey and potatoes) and bad carbs (refined high fructose corn syrup, grains and legumes).
I went off and googled naringenin and got a million results, a large portion of which are probably misleading. Do you have a skinny on the primary benefits? Is it a detoxifier, immune builder, gut biome regulator, or something else? Just trying to get an idea or resource before jumping off into the interwebs... Thanks.
I don’t base my ideas on Melania Trump and one friend, those are merely two examples. I base my ideas on many years of studying human physiology and self-experimentation.
I’ve done a low carb/zero carb diet for three years. I developed many health issues and that sent me researching further. Turns out I’m not the only one who suffered problems.
So while a low carb diet is very good for ripping fat off the body, it doesn’t work for everybody as a LONG TERM healthy lifestyle.
I don’t need to read the book. I ate low carb for a year, then full blown keto for the next year and then carnivore after that....from 2010 to the end of 2013. I was meticulous with my butter slathered food intake. Eventually I garnered a kidney stone from all the plant oxalates. I will never eat spinach, Swiss chard nor kale again.
I agree that low carb is effortless, but it came with a very high price for me. I realize this way of eating works well for many men. But I’m not convinced that aging women 55+ do as well in the long term, based on my own personal experience.
I feel and look a million times better eating ripe organic fruit, meat and potatoes and lower fat dairy.

See? It’s easy, just eat real food.
