Could quite well be a better comparative, so yes, that would work too. In reality I just picked 3 fluids you can't go without and used those. 😅
Also yes, you can swap and adjust the balance, just some work better than others, and each person has tolerances that can help with that. However, if you decide to eliminate one completely or mostly, like many fad diets do, it is most often trouble. At first it seems to go well, but what is happening is your body is being cannibalize for the missing nutrients. Like if you cut out carbs, you will have to make it up with protein, in that your muscles will be scavenged, turning the protein into the needed carbs. That is really hard on the body, not healthy st all.
IMO, best is to keep all three balanced, but reduce intake (portion sizes, avoid excessive sugar, soda, etc.)
Was interested enough to do a bit more research to see if in fact there are essential carbohydrates. It seems the answer is no, which doesn't mean that you don't need any specific carbohydrate in your diet, but maybe you just need some source of carbohydrates. I was wondering about the Inuit people as I believe their diet is pretty low in carbohydrates. I found this:
After hearing that some people think that no only did the people who proposed the food pyramid get it wrong, but totally opposite on what it should be. Whether that's true or not I don't know, but it certainly seems to be questioned. Wondering whether the same might be true for the suggestion of what the typical carbohydrate intake should be.
Actually, I grew up in Alaska. I knew lots of Inuit and Athabaskan. They love carbs.
Traditional villages can have high protein, high fat diets, depending on the season. It's not by choice. Most have a balanced supply of foodstuffs flown in to help balance their diets as it is proven to be more HEALTHY. Including fresh fruits, veggies, breads, pastas, alcoholic beverages, etc.
As I said, long term it is better to maintain a balance. Why do so many people believe Ketosis is a good thing?

Eat to live, don't live to eat.
