If it's some of the best in the world or not idk, and indeed the Gauchos love their beef heh.

Thing is it still costs way too much, I cannot afford eating only meat, I need the rice and beans (and vegetables, fruits etc) to fill the gap, because it's cheap... and imo, it's quality food.

I can go for 24 hour fasts no problem too(after all I fast for 20 hours every day), and I eat carbs (I try to avoid pastry/any wheat products as much as I can though)

As for the insulin spike, as I said, it happens when you eat, period, it's a normal(and necessary) response from the body when eating, doesn't matter what you eat, that's why the best practice is to avoid snacking, just have 2, maybe 3 meals in the day tops.

yes some things spike it worse than others, but the spike is there regardless.

And I never mentioned anything about you saying that "physical activity isn't good", I said that it was folly to suggest that people "don't worry about physical activity" (that's what you said verbatum).

After all is the objective to be healthy or to turn into a stick? sure you can lose the fat by having a severely strict diet, but is that enough? or would you want to be strong and healthy also? for that exercising is imperative.

intermittent fasting is much much easier when you are fat-adapted

Well, but that's the thing, IF gets you to be fat adapted by itself, after all you're FASTING for a long periods of time, what does the body use in that time for food? :) keto just might jumpstart it a bit faster.
