    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

      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.
