I love how we're starting to focus on our diets to prevent or cure a huge amount of diseases. You don't need drugs, expensive treatments, nothing, only a good diet. (read the comments below for an clarification for this statement)

I personally can't work on a very low carb diet. Now I'm eating carbs again but NOT refined carbs. I make sure everything I eat is nutrient dense. Well, not everything, I'm not a robot but I always try to eat stuff with a low glycemic index.

And I eat everything in a span of 8 hours. The rest of the day I only drink water.

Y recommend listening to Dr. Rhonda Patrick. She can explain all this way better than me. She's been on the Joe Rogan podcast (she talks about this in her first time there) and she also has a podcast and a lot of very interesting videos.

>You don't need drugs, expensive treatments, nothing, only a good diet.

Moms on facebook keep telling me this but my physician disagree! Do you have an essential oil for this?

[Darmody]

I realized that that statement can be misinterpreted. I'm not talking about not using drugs or going to a doctor when it's needed. I'm saying a good diet can prevent a lot of bad stuff and sometimes even reverse things like diabetes.

I agree with the responder that your original statement sounds a bit hyperbolized, but I also am an advocate that diet can treat a LOT more conditions than most people think

[Pelic4n]

I fully agree with you, I was being snarky.

[cpach]

May I ask what kind of carbs you include in your diet?

[Darmody]

Quinoa, whole fruits, whole pasta, rye bread, beans. Every now and then I eat white rice as I dislike the brown one.

[Darmody]

I forgot to add oats which is something I eat daily. 40g of grounded oats on my whey protein shake after the workout.

Exercise too

[Darmody]

I workout 4 days a week. Probably I'll update my routine to 5-6 days a week with more cardio to lower my body fat from 14-15% to 10%.
