i'm 47 and artificial sweetners and potato chips were killing me... type 2 diabetes... i was losing my vision and starting to get really bad muscle weakness, what tipped me off was that i was getting infections on my skin that took really aggressive use of peroxide to stop, i looked up "persistent infections" and sure enough it's a symptom of diabetes

my diet was not a lot different to "normal" "healthy" diet recommendations, mostly carbs, but it is and has always been a bad diet for my genetics, my grandmother got alzheimers and now i am quite certain it was from amyloid plaques from chronic high blood sugar levels, she was similar physique also, never really quite got fat, her skin aged a lot slower than average (probably close to average for asian)

so, yeah, there's a reason why i am avoiding grains and starches, and i've never felt better in my life than now

i can consume carbs in small amounts now without big problems but not long ago it was a constant battle

sugar metabolism should not be the dominant mechanism in operation in a human body in general, it produces a lot of oxidative free radicals compared to the direct use of fats for glycogen production, and it leads to all kinds of problems including heart disease and cancer, nothing feeds cancer better than glucose, and low blood sugar starves cancer

eating seeds is a new thing in human diets, only first appeared about 15,000 years ago and prior to that what else could humans have been eating for the previous 250000 years of the time our species has existed??? mostly meat
