There is NOTHING wrong with carbs and fiber, the key is "everything in moderation" 😱👌
humans require fat and protein NOT CARBS we have zero essential requirements for carbs
carbs equal sugar=sickness and death
after big tobacco bought big food in the 1990's they produced the SAD diet-standard American diet-high carb low fat (with zero efficacy studies👍)
Americans' diabetes rate doubled in the next 10 yrs
This is inaccurate. We don't need carbs (at least not in the sense of the word meant by modern medicine). If I had listened to the nutritionist who told me to "eat half a dinner roll with your meal" when I had gestational diabetes, I would have absolutely been pumped full of medications and insulin by the end of my pregnancy. Instead, I ignored her advice and ate protein with vegetables and a few nuts as my carb sources and managed to keep my blood sugar levels in check without medicine; and my GD baby is the most metabolically healthy person in the family (vs my two probable but undiagnosed GD babies who trend toward the chubby side).
Currently I'm working on getting myself out of pre-diabetes territory because I am insulin resistant (and probably have been most of my life) and if I followed my doctor's advice to "just make sure your blood sugar is under 140 two hours after you eat" and "focus on eating more complex carbohydrates," I would never be able to dig myself out of this rut and my insulin resistance would get worse with each passing day, inevitably leading to T2 diabetes in a few years. Fat and protein have been demonized, but they are the best sources of energy to keep us stable and healthy! Since I cut most carbs out of my diet (I eat a veggies and a handful of nuts and raspberries every day but primarily PROTEIN), I have SO MUCH ENERGY! And weight is finally melting off (something I've struggled with most of my life). So no, "everything in moderation" is not an accurate statement (ask any alcoholic or drug addict if they're able to have their addiction in moderation).

WHO PROFITS big food, big medicine and big pharma
If all you eat is fat and protein you put yourself in danger of getting kidney disease. https://www.nature.com/articles/s41419-020-03122-4
A balanced diet, like the Mediterranean diet is better.

There's nothing wrong with fat and protein...IN A BALANCED DIET. Just watch your kidneys, get a blood test every 6 months.
