JORDAN PETERSON: So can you run on protein metabolism? Yes. Does your brain prefer it? Yes. Does it reduce seizure activity? That's been known for a century.

All the nutrition science is rubbish.  All of it. Partly because they don't ever do randomized trials.  You can see what people eat and correlate with outcome.  It's completely useless.  It's completely misleading.  You have no idea because there's nothing controlled. 

People who eat more beef have more heart disease.  It's like, yeah, what else are they doing?  Well, a thousand other things.  How do you control for all thousand [other things]? Well, you do random assignation to group.  It's the only way to control it.  There's no other way.  The correlational studies are useless.  They're useless, and there are hundreds of them.

And the idea that you need fiber, it's like, no, you don't.  That's wrong.

And are plants necessary?

Doesn't appear to be.  You can live on meat.

Carbohydrates?  There's no recommended daily allowance for carbohydrates. Zero.  There's no recommended daily allowance.  You don't need them.  They're not vital.  

So can you run on protein metabolism?  Yes.  Does your brain prefer it?  Yes. Does it reduce seizure activity?  That's been known for a century.

MICHAEL EADES, MD: subjects with mild renal failure on a ketogenic diet with plenty of protein. Not only did the renal failure NOT worsen, it improved

One of the vampire myths that refuse to die is that dietary protein damages the kidneys. This study put subjects with mild renal failure on a ketogenic diet with plenty of protein. Not only did the renal failure NOT worsen, it improved. https://t.co/SHr4Zut3HE pic.twitter.com/QxmCOpu2eS

Ah, how times change. For years people have been saying--with no evidence--that dietary protein harms the kidneys. Now comes a paper advocating the ketogenic diet as a treatment for chronic kidney disease. https://t.co/oIXiyQYfO4 pic.twitter.com/5dHyI81HAZ
