I am so frustrated when nutrition researchers continue to use the term low carbohydrate diet when the intake was 40%! This is much closer to a SAD diet and leads to more confusion and mistrust of the entire nutrition community. A low carb diet is <26%! Very low carb is <10%!

So, I have been a patient advocate for years. Some things I believe as a physician and as a human: 1. People are inherently worthy, 2. We need to stop blaming people for their disease (far too often still occurs with obesity and T2D) 3. Medicine does not have all the answers

The literature is full of papers blaming a high fat diet on increased levels of serum SFA. However, the evidence shows that it is actually the background CARBOHYDRATE consumption that causes an increase in serum SFA. This is CRITICAL to understand.

Therapeutic carbohydrate restriction can be tailored to fit any type of diet so patients do not have to give up their food culture. This is so important as food is part of who we all are, and that can be respected while also making people healthier!

So important to understand that very high SF diets do not lead to high serum SFA in the context of carbohydrate restriction. The high fat diet always gets blamed, but no attention is paid to what is consumed along with the fat and THAT is what matters! @virtahealth

This is 100% true. We are all in this together. This is NOT time for stirring the pot. This is time to support each other. Everyone should be doing their part to help slow the spread of this disease. Comparing this to the flu - unreal and irresponsible.

Seriously, anyone still comparing #COVID19 to the flu should stop today. In Italy 627 died yesterday (!) from COVID-19. That's about 36% of total Italy deaths, despite being concentrated in north & still going up fast. It's NOT the flu. Europe/US next. Get ready. Stay at home.

If we base our dietary guidelines on nutritional epi (intended to be hypothesis generating only) then what we are doing is running an experiment on the American people WITHOUT IRB approval. Wait, aren't there rules against doing this???(yes) Someone let @American_Heart know!

Actually for someone with T2D I recommend starting under 30 gr of carbs per day - total. 60gr per meal will guarentee disease progression. That will make the pharmaceutical companies happy, but I am sure that it is not what any patient wants to see!!
