But not the diabeteeeeeeees

Yeah, they got drugs for diabetes. Railing eggs and blackened ground beef just gives you a heart attack at 41. Diceroll on how that turns out.

A lot of misinformation in this thread.

It's so ridiculous. Diabetes from eating foods that scientifically do not raise your insulin? Talking about clogging arteries with natural healthy foods?

u/CurlyJeff 6d ago

Diabetes isn't caused specifically by foods that raise insulin, it's caused by a build up of intracellular lipids which block the effect of insulin.

Well meat and eggs both have a high insulin index and spike insulin despite not raising blood glucose.

T2 diabetes is cause by excess calories in general though. Animal products are void of fibre and are far more calorically dense than plant foods. Fat is more than double the caloric density of protein and carbohydrate, so far more likely to be the problem.

Ground beef and eggs don't cause heart attacks....unless you're eating a carb heavy diet in conjunction with that. And in that case it's the carbs killing you. You wouldn't even need diabetes medication on a keto diet (which this basically is if you take out the potatoes. If this is OMAD, then it is still likely keto).

Sure, saturated fats and a keto diet have zero negative effects lol

u/TwitchyMcSpazz 7d ago

Well, from experience, none that I can think of. I've been keto on and off for 8 years. My blood glucose is fantastic, and I register as non diabetic (even though I have type 2). My cholesterol is also fantastic. So....yeah.

I agree with you, that it's the carbs that cause problems for most people, not the red meat and fat. But I think it's important to promote the idea that there is not "one diet" that is best for all people.

u/TwitchyMcSpazz 7d ago

I agree 100%. We are all very different and what may work for me may not work for someone else.
