I love low carb. I crave protein, fat and salt. I've been like this since childhood. I never liked carbs.

I used to eat as he recommends. I had fibromyalgia, terrible constipation, IBS, interstitial cystitis (bladder pain) and low grade anemia. Fiber caused the IBS with constipation. Oxalates and phytic acid caused the fibromyalgia, bladder pain, trigger fingers, and mineral deficiencies (anemia). When I quit the leafy greens and other veg all of that went away. I also limit black and green tea due to oxalates. The only veg I eat now is baked acorn or butternut squash. Squash is similar to fruits as far as containing antinutrients.

Wow! Thank you Jesse for continuously probing for specific numbers (or ranges) for the macro nutrients. So often, these get glazed over, leaving many questions when trying to plan out a diet or meal plan. 👍

My grandmother has always eaten fat, protein, and a few vegetables, she is almost 90 and she told me that she never suffered pain during her menstrual cycle and breezed through the menopause! It ain't a coincidence 🤷‍♂️
