I was one meal a day (carnivore) for 5 years and a year ago started getting double vision. I believe the reason was starvation as I just was never hungry and found it hard to eat enough. I added some resistant carbs to get a hunger signal and pushed myself to eat, after just 2 days the double vision episodes went away. I had every test for the vision issue and nothing was found so I truly believe it was lack of nutrition. The addition of a few carbs brought my appetite back. I still eat a meat diet with just enough carbs to tell my body to eat more. I had a carb phobia and it was a real task to add some back.

All carbs become glucose irrespective of the type trigger insulin. Long term health and longevity is better achieved by keeping insulin low.

A variety of whole real foods , cooked, at home, in the kitchen , in moderate amounts , results in healthy humans. People go down rabbit holes after a "target" all too often, looking for a quickie fix , when moderation and some patience, seem to be the key to it all. THANKS for posting the info !!
