    Niche communities. Large spaces are built of small niche interest groups. The tooling around small spaces needs to be first class if we want the larger space to be healthy

    low blood sugar - hypoglycemia is of concern for people who are not fat adapted, and it speaks problems with insulin function either from t1d or insulin resistance. The best way to avoid low blood sugar, is to avoid eating sugar, so that the body can have a very flat regulation of blood glucose high protein - I've seen no benefit to eating high protein documented anywhere. In fact carnivore is not a high protein diet, its a high fat diet, with adequate protein. The protein targets for a healthy adult do not change based on their diet, they need the same amount of bioavailable protein on SAD, Mediterranean, vegan, keto, or carnivore. As far as any deleterious effects, you would be missing nutrition from fat, but I'm not aware of any actual downsides either. Yes, A first step for everyone should be to eat less processed foods and exercise - totally agreed. I was initially responding to the person above to said keto/carnivore were crackpot pseudo science bs.
