The “and sound” in the title made me think it was sound AND something else

No feathers?

It’s not just chicken and broccoli, a entire world of food is available!

you can build real food using all the proteins, all the veggies, and spices!

And when you do eat, how do you stop? Because my brain knows there’s more food in the kitchen. It also knows how to make more food. And it’s going to go in there. It’s exhausting to have to say no every second of every day to a brain that’s a toddler.

Going keto can remove the food noise, which could make it easier to make sustainable changes to your nutrition.

Cico is vacuously true.

https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/vacuously

Showing a lack of thought or intelligence; vacant.

Surprisingly, I agree with you! CICO is lacking in thought and intelligence when applied to human metabolism.

The second law of thermodynamics requires a closed system, humans are famously open what with their breathing, eating, pooping, and peeing.

CICO is like saying cars without fuel don’t move, so if overfill the tank you should park your car. It misses the point, and that is the hormonal drivers in human fat mobilization.

Sugar/Carbs drive blood glucose, which drives blood insulin, which shuts down fat mobilization. Yes, you can lose weight eating only sugar, but it’s making the entire process more difficult then it needs to be.

++ Keto works because its keeps insulin levels from going high, when insulin is high the body simply cannot metabolize stored fat (at all).

Doing low calorie works by itself, but its hard mode, eating a bunch of insulin spiking meals throughout the day makes it much harder to burn through that sugar, lower the insulin, and eventually metabolize stored fat.

It’s a bench top conventional oven.

With a fan!

The funny thing, the truly funny thing, Is that many people reading this will assume their assumptions about nutrition are fact based and everybody else’s is pseudoscience. Examining the data on your own biases is critical for any standing in science.

It’s easier to make fun of people then to engage with them, because engagement requires honest intellectual rigor

This isn’t a meme, it’s a crime
