Heart disease in that 10% remaining. It hits so hard, the other diseases don't even get a chance 😢
Hey man, I was a fat ass with high cholesterol and pre diabetic. I ate keto and cut most carbs from my diet (20mg max a day) and not only did I lose 60lb, my arthritis and back pain disappeared. My cholesterol is at an acceptable levels without medication.
Sugars and carbs are what is unhealthy. Not meats and fats.
When you are fat you need to cut down carbs for a while to allow cells to into burning fat for fuel. Keto diet is a very useful tool to loose weight but not yet proven to be healthy long term. Carbs are not unhealthy if sourced from wholefoods since they will always come with the one very important thing keto diets lack: fiber.
Ya, you can't eat bad fats. You need clean fats. Not all carbs are made the same. Fructose consumed by real fruits is good.
Fruits are pretty good because they contain important micronutrients and fibre. But the fructose they contain is still just sugar, and not a whole lot better in its own right than the sugar in lollies and biscuits.
Ya, still gotta make sure to not blow past the 20g of sugar with fruits.
Agree. Whole foods should be the staple of a healthy diet.
This has lots of potatoes that are high in carbs, so I don't think it's keto. Also, everything is healthy in moderation (except stuff like smoking, alcohol) and unhealthy if you eat to much and the keto diet is definitely not for everyone, so be careful making those generalized claims.
When I'm in ketosis, there would be no way I can eat that entire plate in 1 sitting unless I'm working out. That played including the potatos is like 2 meals.
Keto helps you consume less foods since you feel more full. Sugars doesn't make you feel more full.
Again, I'm happy that worked for you but it is not true for everyone and no claim like "sugar bad, fat good" is ever going to help everyone get more healthy. I myself lost weight by increasing fiber and protein (so many lentils and beans) and decreasing unhealthy snacks. But take my pasta and bread and I will feel unhappy and unmotivated and not move a muscle all day.
A low carb diet high fat does not necessarily give you high ldls, which is what clogs those arteries. Same can be said about sugar, which can be stored as fat and clogs those same arteries. As long as everything is in moderation, there is nothing wrong with eating like a dog on its birthday!
Yeah, but it looks like there's quite a bit of cheese melted on top of two of those servings of eggs. Plus the potatoes may have been roasted with an unhealthy oil. I agree, everything in moderation. For most meals, this person should stick to one serving of bachelor chow.
I dont really like eggs much, but it looks less like cheese to me than just really runny eggs
Americans don't know what real cheese looks like. Their "cheese" is cheeto orange, almost fluorescent.
Yes they know what cheese is, Wisconsin +cheese is a frequent writing trope
America bad, amirite?
Also gout.
