    And now we’re back to equivocating and straight-up bullshit. The idea that the treatment of diet-based health problems has an environmental impact at anywhere near the level of rearing livestock is so laughable, that it’s hard to believe that you’re not just trolling now.

    “It is impossible to get type 2 diabetes eating a ASF diet.”

    You mean a zero-carb diet?! I’ve clearly taken you far more seriously than you deserve - more fool me.

    I’d love to engage in productive discussion, but you’re clearly being disingenuous and I’m not prepared to waste anymore time with you.

      Type 2 diabetes can be considered a form of carbohydrate intolerance. If you don’t eat dietary sugar, you don’t have elevated blood sugars (under most circumstances outside of very rare thyroid and glandular issues)

      This is why ketogenic and zero carb diets can be used to treat (and in some cases) reverse type 2 diabetes.

      A diet hat has no carbohydrates, will not spike blood glucose levels, and it will be (nearly) impossible to developed type 2 diabetes.

      All of this is true, you can choose not to take me seriously, but the science is correct.

        I wish to join your crusade against the scourge of type-2 diabetes. Let’s get the whole planet on a keto diet - it’s the only way to stamp out what is clearly the biggest threat to civilisation! I’m not sure how we’re going to rear all the livestock needed … perhaps we focus on eating ‘long pig’ for a generation or two.

          People can do vegetarian keto, or even vegan keto

          https://www.dietdoctor.com/low-carb/keto/vegetarian

          Not everyone needs to do keto, only those who are intolerant of their current carbohydrate load. Some people tolerate carbohydrates well, so its a option for those who don’t. My point two posts above is as we increase carbohydrate load we will see higher rates of type 2 diabetes in the general population.

          But yes, fixing the scourge of type-2 diabetes and metabolic dysfunction is a top priority.

            No comrade - forsake this heresy! Never forget that “It is impossible to get type 2 diabetes eating a ASF diet.” To save the planet and eliminate type-2 diabetes and metabolic dysfunction we must convert all available land to the raising of livestock. It is the only way!

              Sure, but only non-airable pasture land, and don’t forget the oceans can also be productive.

              It is impossible to get T2D eating ASF, glad you remembered that.

                If we don’t act soon, literally the entirety of the world’s GDP will be spent on treating type-2 diabetes! It will be totally unavoidable!

                For real though, I have to work now. Go tell your jokes to someone else.
