1139: Fad Diets | Skeptical Sunday

You're missing... Missing out on some nutrients that are pretty readily available in legumes and beans, which they don't eat. Fiber consumption tends to be low. I think the main issue, though, is that it's not a sustainable way to eat. You may know some guy who's been doing paleo for 30 years and he's ripped to shreds and he feels amazing, but he's the exception.

Most people are just not going to stick to these kinds of super restrictive diet. What about keto, which up until recently I thought was the same thing as paleo? I think keto is probably more sustainable because it's less restrictive. But yeah, it's really similar. Can we define keto? Because I realize now I'm using terms people might not have heard of. Keto is just down to macros.

That's all keto really is. It's like a super low carb if it fits your macro diet.

Yeah, macro is this kind of bodybuilder slang for macronutrients that's bubbled over into diet culture in general. But basically, it's the amount of protein, carbs, and fat. These are the macronutrients you're aiming to get every day. And it's opposed to micronutrients, which are things like vitamin C or riboflavin, which your cereal is always saying it's full of.

So in a lot of ways, keto is just this really extreme form of low carb if it fits your macro type of dieting. You run your macros, you're paying super close attention to your carbs and keeping them really low.

One thing that's just totally missing from our society today is the concept of moderation. So people hear stuff like, too many carbs are bad for you. And they respond with, cool, I'll just never eat carbs again. And that's what keto is. You're supposed to stay under 50 grams of carbs a day. Ideally, you want to get it closer to 20. A frigging banana has 27 grams of carbs in it.
