Critique of Nutritional Dogma and Keto
August 01, 2018
what's the um biggest piece of dogma at the moment that's pissing you off the biggest piece of dogma yeah that's fucking keto shit man you know keto keto cures everything like i try to rub keto on my dick thinking you'd make my dick bigger but it still hasn't worked so i'm you know i'm giving that up you know there's almost so much coconut oil and butter you can rub in your pecker you know it's it's people are acting like this keto thing is brand new and that's what's killing me like i was doing the ketogenic dieting when i was 18 and that's 22 years ago like but just like you know next year everybody would be in bell bottoms and butterfly collars you know and everybody like just in dancing to disco everything always comes around yeah it's a full circle and you'll have a new generation and you get a new generation coming around and they'll latch on to something the next one will be everyone will go back to high cards you're starting to see that right now people are starting to swing back to high cards and very low fat it's like god damn can we just settle somewhere in the middle yeah there's a sweet spot and like you look at like keto is great for a lot of situations and it's horrendous for a lot of situations low fat and high carb great for a lot of situations horrible for a lot of situations some people need to be just in the middle and that's a code that when you look at a sports nutritionist or a dietician nutritionist uh job is to figure out where that is for that person right so like i have people i'm dealing with in australia where they were on ketogenic diets and they're footy athletes so they're on the field for 90 minutes and they're on low carbs and they can't figure out why they can't perform while they're constantly injured and while they're so tired all the time. We jack their carbs up and bring their fat down real low, and all of a sudden they're the fucking captain of the team. You look at the other side of the equation, there's a lot of general population that are swinging to the high carb, and they're probably eating too many carbs because they're just simply not utilizing a lot of it because they don't train really hard and they don't train with enough volume. So in a lot of cases, some of these people, maybe not keto, but maybe they do need lower carb. Maybe you are trying to lose body fat. you have poor metabolic flexibility maybe your RER is is not where it needs to be and you can use fasting and you can use low carbs and keto to get your body to burn more fat at rest awesome that you can kick the carbs up to fuel the workouts um and then some people need to be somewhere in the middle you know but some of that stuff some of the some of the insulin hypothesis shit that people are still preaching that is complete bullshit um the the hate against vegans and vegetarians always pisses me off. Why can't people shut up and let people just eat the way they want to fucking eat? But then on the opposite side, you get all the vegans telling us meat eaters that we're going to hell because we're killing baby fucking bambis and shit. There's a lot of stuff that pisses me off about this industry. So there's never a dull moment.
