No. Limiting carbs does not in fact shorten your life span. Eating too much fat is bad for you and fat shouldn't be a major part of your diet. The healthiest way to eat is focusing on high quality sources of protein like beef while avoiding carbs like bread and pasta. Some vegetables are good for you, others are too high in carbs to be healthy. Fruits should be treated like ice cream and cookies and consumed sparingly as a treat. Fruit is not in fact healthy for you.
Is there a keto community in the fediverse? If there is, spend some time there.
"The healthiest way to eat" is a balanced diet of real food while minimizing hyper processed junk that's one single source of macronutrients without all the micronutrients cooking from raw ingredients yourself provides.
You can prove "protein" is bad if your protein is McDonalds, "carbs" are bad if your carbs are wonder bread, and "fats" are bad if your fats are empty greasy deep fried food. But a healthy diet has all three, just from actual food and not the freezer aisle.
Damn, you're stupid son.
Carbs are bad regardless of source. There is no real difference between a McDonald's hamburger bun and one bought at the grocery store or made at home.
Protein is good regardless of source unless it has some other poisons added in. Yes, McDonald's patties aren't the best meat you can buy, but, if you are on the road and McDonald's is the easiest or only source of food, having them leave off the bun is better than nothing.
Fats aren't bad either and the whole good versus bad fats is mostly bullshit. Fat shouldn't be a major part of your diet and can have you gain weight even on keto if you eat too much. Fat should be eaten to satiety.
You have a nice idiotic life now, you hear.
Please cite literally any major medical organization that advocates for avoiding eating whole fruit. I'll wait.
You should look into what fruit mostly is. Hint it's sugar. You should also look into what sugar does to your insulin levels and how it affects your body.
I'm not surprised that the shills and trolls who don't understand basic biochemistry are arguing with me here. I will however do 2 things. 1) I will continue to comment like this in these stupid fucking posts that are misleading at best and false at worst. 2) I will block you idiots so you can't follow me around and I don't have to see your inanity.
I'd just point out that you have failed to cite literally any major medical organization that advocates for avoiding eating whole fruit.
Keto is unhealthy. A ketogenic diet is unhealthy unless directed by a medical professional. A real one. With a medical degree that can be taken away from malpractice.
For example, a dietitian is a highly educated professional with a degree and professional certification. A nutritionist is a quack that is selling snake oil and answers to nobody. People selling keto are nutritionists at best.
Your idiocy is showing.
No one "sells" keto. Keto is simply carbs under a certain percentage with a focus on protein with fat to satiety. There is no money to be made selling keto to those with working brain cells because you don't have to buy any supplements or special products.
