[QUOTE="SoCal Guy, post: 81507, member: 14529"] I don't know him; I just follow him. Some people follow vegans like Rich Roll, diets like [URL="http://www.30bananasaday.com/"]thirty bananas a day[/URL] etc. Good for them. And I'm not a candidate for being an endurance or power athlete of any kind. But it seems interesting that he's getting the best results of his life at 50 on such an atypical diet. I'm also not a big fan of the "everything in moderation" appeal. (It's curious to see that argument on a TRT forum.) Everyone seems to assume moderation is the logical path. It might be, but I don't buy it. I don't think we are likely to know the answer in our lifetimes. Especially since the extreme markup possible on branded carbohydrate-based foods from farm to Oreo means there will always be insane media and governmental pressure towards carbs. The authorities talk veggies to provide air cover, but the businesses sell bread, Capn Crunch, ice cream, cola and fries. We are all swimming in that propaganda, though we may believe that, unlike everyone else, we are the perceptive and discerning ones. But in such an environment, I'm not so sure we can perceive "moderation", much less truth. So, though I'm not participating, I'm glad the guy has organized a rough, crowdsourced group experiment testing such an immoderate diet. Because while the powers that be fund ve*an diet studies endlessly, testing meat-only would be a career-ender in a world where everyone from First Ladies down are forcing carb (excuse me, "vegetable") diets hard. I also find people's experiences in carnivore FB groups like zeroing in on health interesting. Lots of people are getting fantastic results with zero carb. But Baker has been willing to go more public than others. Often things don't change until there's at least one person who DGAF. [/QUOTE]
