as much of a PSA as this is a meme lol. don’t seek dietary advice from randos on the internet. everyone is different and the advice you see from @[email protected] on !memes can be dangerous and should be taken with a grain of salt (metaphorically, not a dietary recommendation 😜). instead consider one or both of:

a) going to a health professional
b) seeking out and joining a trustworthy community (online or irl) who back themselves with medical research

Do not take dietary advice from randos on the internet, yes, but also unless it's in relation to a medical condition or you are talking to a professional nutritionist don't take dietary advice from your doctor either. Med school teaches basically nothing about nutrition, and it's pretty sad how often you can figure out when a doctor went to med school by which fad diet they recommend.
