With other variables controlled, ⬆️ caloric intake leads to weight gain, and vice versa for ⬇️ caloric intake.

Similarly, ⬆️ caloric expenditure, whether through exercise, drugs, or diet, has the same effect.

This is misleading sophistry that perverts the meaning of causality.

Remember:

What gets measured gets managed. What gets managed improves.

The best coaches don't work harder.

They work with EVIDENCE.

Start simple. Measure smart. Coach with clarity.

Joe Rogan: Alzheimer's Caused by LOW Dietary Cholesterol 🤔

1.) This is not the pathophysiology of AD.
2.) There is no evidence that low dietary cholesterol causes AD.
3.) One of the preventable contributors to AD is... LDL-cholesterol.

Eating fat is not the problem...

It's the type of fat that most should be concerned with.

✅Eat MORE fats from nuts, seeds, olive oil, rapeseed oil, avocado, and oily fish.

✅Eat LESS fats from fatty meats, butter, processed 'junk' foods with added fats, and deep frying.

"Carnivore diet – a rare cause for dyslipidemia mimicking homozygous FH"

2 young men, 33 & 28, LDL-C 15 (580) & 17 (660) mmol/l (mg/dL).

Subjects had signs of early atherosclerosis with significant carotid plaque (>97th + 90th percentile)

Concerning.
