Do you think you might be someone who would benefit from a completely different diet? A carnivore or keto or keto adjacent diet for example?
It's really interesting how we can find on this channel and on similar channels diametrically opposed approaches. One approach says no eggs, no dairy, minimal meat eat lots of complex carbohydrates from fruits and vegetables.
The other approach says these things are not ideal, we should instead eat grass-fed meat, pasture raised eggs, grass-fed dairy, butter, ghee and stay away from most vegetables and fruit.
I think there are people who benefit from both approaches and those who benefit from one but not the other. I wish this channel or other similar channels would go into the question of which approach is best and how can we determine for ourselves which approach is best for us. I guess we experiment on ourselves, we try the first approach and if it doesn't work we try the second.
Both agree that added sugars, processed vegetable seed oils and processed food in general are very bad. We all agree on that but beyond that is the correct approach to keep carbohydrates low and do a clean keto or clean keto adjacent diet or is it best to keep meat, eggs and dairy to a minimum and eat lots of vegetables.
Dr Robert Lustig says feed the gut, protect the liver and you can do that with either approach. This matters a lot to me because I have sustained a tremendous amount of trauma and I want some of those years back, knowing which diet is correct is very important and like you, I don't know which approach is the right one. It's impossible to get this information from our mainstream medical providers because they are here to prescribe medications and most of them haven't learned anything about nutrition.
People like Dr Ken Berry will tell you that there is one correct diet for humans and that diet is closer to carnivore for him. I don't think that's right for everyone. It would be ideal to find providers who can analyze an individual's unique system, their microbiome, their genetics, what they've gone through and based on that determine which diet is correct for that person.
