I’ve been intrigued by how many bitcoiners are carnivores. It could also be that those individuals are just more verbose about their diet because it is still the most unpopular…

I periodically go down many nutrition research (as deeply flawed as it is by design and funding directions) rabbit holes. It’s rather clear what is “good” for our metabolic health (quality meats, fats, real, nutrient and polyphenol-dense foods, restricted eating windows, etc.) and what is bad for us (high-glycemic foods, precessed and fake food) but where the partiality gets confusing for me is I don’t know that, in terms of percentages of macros, there’s any one size fits all.

>70% meat? 70% fats 20% protein? A Mediterranean diet with at least half your plate full of vegetables?

So far, that seems to depend heavily on ethnic background, and the woman factor changes the percentages a lot ( for fertility etc.) and is understudied. Our individual epigenetics dictate a significant part of that. Any papers you have come across that challenge/dive into that?

Basically, provided that all the bad food is out of the picture, it’s Ciao population medicine, hello precision medicine. Your body knows best (not just general feeling and symptoms but ideally with some continuous monitoring).

My diet is roughly 50/50 on fat & protien. 200-300g of each a day. I have seen people talk about higher fat having benefits, & I have seen some people who seem to prefer higher protein. I suspect some of that may have to do with what damage was done by prior eating practices & what is needed for recovery. And the requirements of certain lifestyles & living conditions.

There are plenty of records showing that people will eat any gabarge when there isn't enough food. I suspect plants & clay & the other things people have consumed are primarily just poverty foods. Something in your belly is better than nothing. The south in the US was historically poorer, but always cooked veggies in animal fat to make them healthier. That of course was inverted when animal based frying oils were swapped with what is basically plant based poisons. But maybe there is more to it than that. 🤷‍♂
