Yeah, so I would say, I mean, you positioned it pretty well.
Most people will start with protein, lock that thing in, and then you'll play with carbohydrates and fat as a way to adjust overall caloric intake.
And because we know the role of carbohydrates and exercise performance, we will usually go to that second, and then fat gets the third consideration.
Like, okay, fine, whatever calories we have left, we backfill with fat.
And as long as your fat isn't too low...
and it's too low chronically, then you're not going to really run into too many issues with having insufficient amount of intake of fat, dietary fat.
That said, this is something I've changed my tune on a lot.
I come from the classic exercise physiology academic background, and all those people are carbohydrates first, carbohydrates second, third, fourth.
Fat was always shunned.
And I don't think I believe that as much anymore.
Also, we've experienced a lot.
A lot of the people we've worked with, they're fine on moderate to low carbohydrate, even high exercisers, non-athletes, but they train a ton.
You're talking about guys and girls running 60 miles per week, right?
Like real high energy expenditures in terms of performance.
And they're at 100 grams of carbohydrate a day.
They're not eating ketosis at all.
They're not even trying to be, but they just like are fine at 150 grams a day or 200 grams of carbohydrate a day, right?
For 120 to 190 pound like individuals kind of at that, just as some frame of reference for numbers there.
In that case, their fat intakes are way higher and they're fine.
We're not seeing any performance decrements.
