It helps that we're right. That it can't be bad to eat what humans have eaten for 2 million years.

But 2 recent things I've looked at were studies done a few decades ago and shelved because they didn't get the "right" answer, but were recovered recently and published showing the lipid hypothesis was wrong and the cause of metabolic disorder was carbohydrates

They were suppressed in the 70s and 80s, now they are published. Dietary guidelines in Australia (one of the biggest wheat exporters) now allow low carb for treating type 2 diabetes.

I do believe we're watching a change in consensus (which as always is progressing one death at a time - perhaps it's good that the other side is committed to a metabolically dangerous path)

I agree with everything you say. The fact that it works, and people can measure many of their own metrics to show it works is huge. Everyone should be a scientist for their own body.

We are probably wrong about some things, but with the let's verify spirit we will figure it out!

This makes me sad. I do my best when I see someone with a problem, I try to make sure they are aware of options.

I discovered all of this, when I was diagnosed with essential hypertension. My medical provider at the time just said eat less and exercise more. I had to do my own research to find a way to reverse it. And ever since then I've been very invested
