    There is lots of exciting literature being published on gut health, but we are at the stage where we don’t know what is good and bad in the gut. I’ve seen some recent papers showing lots of promise for neurodegenerative disorders using ketogenic diets to keep energy flowing into the brain of highly insulin resistant populations such as type 2 diabetics. (the incidence of t2d and alzheimers is suspiciously high)

    As you said, no miracle diets, but many terrible diets:

    • Diets that increase blood sugar
    • Diets that inflame the gut (or the overall body)
    • Diets that are nutrient deficient
    • Diets with actual poison (glyphosate etc)
    • Diets with industrial oils that attack cholesterol (we need cholesterol to live)
    • Diets that trigger the Randle cycle to flip flop, massively increasing cellular damage and inflammation (mixing fat and carbs)
