Anyone who might be wondering if this way of eating is a “fad” diet, please consider this.
The “Standard American Diet” is actually a “fad diet”, and a radical departure from the healthy human diet eaten by humans throughout our history. We did not eat “modern processed foods”. We didn’t have sugar, fruits, manufactured seed oils, pasta, highly refined grains, etc.
Every Monday night, a very good Doctor and his Nurse wife have a 1 hour YouTube video explaining how the “proper human diet” heals, helps with massive weight loss, and reverses many diseases.
Look up Dr. Ken Berry on YouTube to see his many videos on different health topics, and make up your mind. I followed his advice, avoiding all “packaged keto processed foods” and can attest that it works, if followed.
Weight loss surgery is terrible. It isn’t a long-term solution. Why mutilate your body because you don’t want to follow a proper human diet, and then regain that weight?
Cian Foley, author of Don’t Eat for Winter, argues the case that carbs are the trigger for autumn fat storage. “In countries with pronounced seasons, carbs typically only exist in late summer and autumn. It stands to reason that these high sugar/starch foods trigger primal processes in our brains/bodies that promote fat storage in order to help us survive the shortages and cold of winter. After graphing an array of natural foods by their optimal harvest month, I noticed a huge spike in high gi/gl foods occurring in Autumn time. Stone-age people would have used this food, along with the staples (protein and fat) to store excess energy and nutrients in order to survive the oncoming season: Winter; just like other animals that work symbiotically with their natural ecosystems.”
