  • That’s a great writeup, thank you for sharing it!

    I would just emphasize the healthy diet is more then just avoid sugary treats.

    What does a good diet look like:

    • whole foods, from real sources
    • zero sugar
    • zero fructose (no juices, but eating in season fruit might be ok… This is whole foods again)

    Metrics you can use to confirm your diet is good:

    • your TG/HDL ratio is less then 1
    • your HOMA-IR is less then 1
    • your fasting insulin is less then 6 uU
    • you don’t have extra fat, muffin top, love handles, etc
    • you don’t snore

    I personally would recommend doing keto/low carb if you want to ensure you maintain long term metabolic health, but it’s not a requirement
