@melsorbit @SamaHoole Rubbish. Humans are only animal with sophisticated throwing arm evolved to throw projectiles that kill prey animals for food and we used our hands to make the weapons used to kill prey animals for our food.

@foundmyfitness @napersveryown There’s overwhelming evidence that virtually any diet including your fruit and vegetables is far superior to the Standard American Diet (SAD). Just perhaps the benefit lies in substitution of junk.

@wilsonhlthcoach I don’t like feeling crappy so I mostly eat fatty meat, eggs, and butter. It’s just that simple.

[Colin Vankeith @ColinVankeith]

@SamaHoole He smoked 4 packs a day!

@MohammedAlo “Seed oil on a whole food diet is not on the list” Any whole food diet, by definition, cannot include seed oils because seed oils are extremely ultra processed and extremely removed from any whole food. An intelligent person would never make such a ridiculous statement.

@nicknorwitz @realDaveFeldman @AdrianSotoMota I’m 77 with average LDL of >400 for 12 years now following keto and carnivore diet. No recent imaging but going strong with optimal metabolic markers, 104/66 Blood pressure, 46 resting heart rate physically active, pain free & enjoying life.

@Beno10_MFC D, the bowl is sitting lower.

[Colin Vankeith @ColinVankeith]

@drjamesdinic And yet, long term carnivores have strong bones and muscular physiques with zero increased correlation of fractures.

@covfefe_is @SamaHoole I have been wearing nothing but 5 fingers footwear for the past 17 years and my feet have healed from being my weakest body part to my strongest body part. It’s not about fashion; It’s therapy and closer to ancestral. So F your judgement!

@MattBMartin Wrong: Statins were first approved for commercial use in 1987, not in the 1970s.

[Colin Vankeith @ColinVankeith]

@Tellit007 This logic posits that the keto diet is heart healthy and otherwise excellent treatment for obese patients and deadly for healthy fit/lean patients. I’m not buying it.

[Colin Vankeith @ColinVankeith]

@Coach_SwiftPT @SamaHoole Symptoms of heart attack death are very obvious and were not reported.

@_earthling74 @nicknorwitz “No on knows this” Actually that’s exactly what the hypotheses states. Please be consistent with the hypothesis.

@nickk396555 @nicknorwitz Comparing cholesterol to smoking: 700 LDL would equate to smoking >than 4 packs a day. This dude is not running a marathon.

[Colin Vankeith @ColinVankeith]

@SBakerMD Giving myself permission to enjoy a perfectly seared rib eye steak everyday! Sometimes two. What could be easier?

[Colin Vankeith @ColinVankeith]

@nickk396555 @nicknorwitz Heavy smokers definitely have readily observable indications of lung damage after 5 to 7 years as well as observable very significant physical performance limitations. Any heavy smokers ever complete a marathon?

[Colin Vankeith @ColinVankeith]

@_earthling74 @nicknorwitz “What if there's a ceiling on how fast particles can cross the endothelium at any given moment?” You are being disingenuous because here you are contradicting the existing hypothesis that clearly states higher level = higher risk while arguing for the status quo hypothesis.

[Colin Vankeith @ColinVankeith]

@CaryKelly11 That sounds exactly like my experience.

[Colin Vankeith @ColinVankeith]

@drjamesdinic @Backto198433421 @MarkGabriele22 And yet they experienced excellent health. The subjects maintained homeostasis, I.E. not excessive acid load as is the case with several thousands of modern day folks following a high fat/moderate protein carnivore diet.

[Colin Vankeith @ColinVankeith]

@drjamesdinic @Backto198433421 @MarkGabriele22 The carnivore diet Stefansson/Anderson was NOT high protein, rather it was high fat/near zero carb: “The calorie intake was in the range from 2,000 to 3,100 calories per day, of which 15% to 25% were derived from protein, 78% to 85% from fat , and 1% to 2% from carbohydrates.”
