Not sure if I want that to be honest. I could surely be 6-7kg lighter, but I would lose strength that has taken years to build. My height is 185cm now.

Its not misinformation if its true. I specifically called out seed oils, since cutting that will basically cut most of the things that is bad in the modern diet. Its hard to find ultra processed foods without it here in my country. Even some soda has it now.. Its obvious that there are many factors, but starting with removing seed oils and sugar will make the biggest impact since so many other options has to be removed then.

Your list is true if you remove red meat from it. Obviously no people should be smoking, drinking, using plastics around food, do some gym or other fitness daily .. and so on.

Oh dear, someone believes everything they read on how something is not bad for you. Tell me how seed oils isnt associated with all our health style issues?

For one, every way I eat is based on trial and error. I've read many books and studies throughout the years. I have tried a whole food vegan approach for 6 months in 2020, which was terrible for my IBS. I struggled with ibs for years until I started figuring out stuff. I come from a family that is chronic in their seed oils use, and other processed food. When I tried to cut it out from my diet completely, I had improvements in my gut, as well as my skin and migraine. I am diagnosed with idiopathic urticaria, migraine, and IBS.

Solving my issues has been my main goal since I was a 115kg heavy teenager under 165cm. I managed to lose all the extra weight, but not without all my problems mentioned. Therefore I started experimenting from 2017. The last 4 years has been amazing regarding health and diet.I mainly eat ketogenic diet, and no seed oils at all. Only carb I do eat occasionally is potato. Potato seems to not trigger anything for me. Current weight is 86kg, and been maintaing around this for years now based on my gym schedule.

I don't care about what streamers says at all. Unless they have tried it themselves for longer than 90 days, then it is invalid in my opinion. Just assuming that my advice is based on advice from streamers and podcasters is plain stupidity. If I can create the food myself from ingridients and animals around me. Then it also means humans did for ten thousands of years prior. Seed oils did not even exist before modern times. I do not count olive oil as seed oil when I say this.

Disclaimer: I have spent hundreds on hours on reading shit like this. How much time did you spend on the topic food? Did you transform yourself from trial and error?

Meat is not the problem. The problem is the standard sides and processed food people usually eat with the meat. Like burger buns, seed oils, food in frying oil .. and so on.

Eating clean proper ruminant meat will not be bad for you. What you eat with it is another issue..

Not only fasting, but also as little sugar as possible. That also includes sugars from carbs. Also I would stay away from everything that is ultra processed. Including seed oils.

I have heard about more success stories where people did a 180 on their diet, than those who just keep eating like they did before their diagnosis.

The boring part about this, is that if it does not work, you spent the last part of your life eating really restricted.
