The keto diet is a recipe for disaster

The latest — or maybe just loudest — diet obsession transfixing the internet says it will help you lose weight, live longer , and improve your memory . Sounds great, you say? Except that these benefits will only bloom once you cut carbohydrates. Familiar story, right? The Atkins diet is back? We’re all gonna start eating eggs and bacon for every meal again until our cholesterol inevitably reaches code-red levels? No, this new obsession is not Atkins. It’s the ketogenic diet, lovingly called “keto,” popularized by actors , Instagram stars, and the same people who brought you raw water . If you believe a diet is supposed to be a varied landscape of all the things the world has to offer in moderation, keto may not be the diet for you. Let’s find out if science says it’s worth it. What is the ketogenic diet? The history of keto goes much farther than an attempt to stem weight gain during our fat-fearing era. In 1921, it was observed that fasting decreased incidence of seizure in e...

Red Meat Allergy: How One Tick Bite Can Upend Your Diet and Your Life

Photo: Getty First, Douglas Baker had a severe reaction in which he broke out into full body hives and lost consciousness three times. Then in a quest for answers, he went through nine long months of seeing a variety of specialists. During visits to an allergist, he was tested for more than 130 potential allergies, but to no avail. The allergist could not identify the trigger that set off his life-threatening reaction and a few subsequent ones. Instead, the Huntsville, Alabama man got a frustrating diagnosis: “idiopathic anaphylaxis” or, as Baker calls it: “we ain’t got a clue.” He was put on a heavy dose of daily antihistamines, instructed to always have epinephrine, never to be alone nor to stray more than 30 minutes from a hospital. The lifestyle was harsh but, for a time, his reactions waned. Then in 2008, at the age of 62, the episodes came back with a vengeance. Over four years, Baker had 38 anaphylactic reactions, usually between 11 p.m. and 2 a.m. In some cases, he arriv...

Vogue's Weird 1970's Diet Is Just Wine, Eggs, And Steak

This Vogue diet from the 1970’s is literally just wine, eggs, and steak There are a lot of ridiculous diets out there. We have officially managed to crown the winner. A Twitter user dug up a diet plan that Vogue printed in the 1970’s and it literally revolves around getting wildly drunk and eating a bunch of eggs. Not, like, the worst combination in the world but probably isn’t the most productive/healthy way to live your life. Here’s the whole yolk-y deal. Vogue suggested that you start your day with 1 hard-boiled egg, 1 glass of white wine (dry), and black coffee. So, let’s just assume by around 10am you will be sufficiently tipsy and also probably starting to feel some weird rumblings in your stomach. Next up: lunch. Readers were advised to eat two more hard-boiled eggs (poached if necessary), 2 glasses of white wine (oh dear God), and more black coffee. So you are now officially drunk and probably popping a whole bunch of Tums. Now, the fun part. For dinner you ea...

The Magic Pill: How do the health claims in Pete Evans' paleo diet doco stack up?

A documentary by celebrity chef Pete Evans — which depicts a high-fat, low-carb diet as a treatment for autism, asthma and even cancer — is back in the spotlight this month after Netflix was urged to pull the film from its streaming service. The Magic Pill, a 2017 documentary narrated and produced by Evans, advocates for “the paleo way” of living. It follows people suffering different chronic illnesses who adopt a high-fat, low-carb diet and are shown to drastically reduce their symptoms. In one case study, a woman claims her breast cancer tumour shrank as a result of transforming her diet. In another, a four-year-old girl with autism who is non-verbal is able to speak for the first time after avoiding processed foods and carbohydrates for 10 weeks. So, what is it about the documentary that has public health experts so concerned? And what is the evidence for adopting a high-fat, low-carb “ketogenic” diet to alleviate a host of health conditions? I watched The Magic Pill and took...

15 Amazing Benefits of Guava for Weight Loss, Diabetes & Skin | Organic Facts

The potential health benefits of guava include its ability to help in regulating blood pressure, and treating diarrhea. It further helps strengthen the immune system and digestive system. It also aids in weight loss, improves the skin, treats cough and cold, constipation, dysentery, and scurvy. Due to the unique and high concentrations of minerals and vitamins, guava can also help increase energy, relax the nerves, and decrease the number of stress hormones in the body. What is Guava?

Netflix gives up the Santa Clarita Diet

Bad news for fans of Drew Barrymore, Suburban Devourer Of Flesh tonight, as Netflix announced that it’s going off of Barrymore’s Santa Clarita Diet for good. Created by Victor Fresco—still probably best known to niche sitcom nerds as the mind behind Better Off Ted —the series starred Barrymore and Timothy Olyphant as a pair of dorky parents trying to make the best of Barrymore’s newfound (and insatiable) desire to chow down on human flesh. The self-titled “zom com” debuted its third season late last month, with Fresco noting at the time that he had no clue whether the show would be brought back for a fourth. As it happens, though, tonight’s cancellation news came just as T he Hollywood Reporter dropped a new bit of speculative analysis about Netflix’s recent ordering strategies, suggesting that three seasons is the new ideal for the streamer’s offerings. (At least in part because that’s the point where back-end royalties really start to pile up.) Santa Clarita is just th...

5 Reasons Why You Can't See Your Abs + Diet Plan

Summer is quickly approaching. You’re ready to expose that ripped body you’ve been working tirelessly in the gym to achieve since January 1. And by now, meal prepping every week has become second nature. The beach is calling your name, and you can’t wait to reveal the sixpack hiding under your shirt. Sound familiar? No? That’s because it’s likely that none of this is true. Somehow swimsuit season creeps up on us every year. Suddenly, you’re invited on the boat for Memorial Day, and you jump on some extreme calorie-restricted diet for one week hoping that it will magically shed those extra 20 pounds you’ve been carrying around. Bad news: That’s not going to work. But it’s OK. It’s almost Memorial Day. And the official start of summer is right around the corner. If you didn’t get the hint…This is it. Time to get serious. Even if you’re killing it in the gym, you will never see a defined midsection until you get your diet in check. It’s a hassle. You don’t have time to plan…or co...

Vegan Wu-Tang Clan's GZA Calls Chitterlings and Soul Food 'the Slave Man's Diet'

GZA, aka “The Genius” of American hip-hop group the Wu-Tang Clan , recently recorded a video with NowThis, where he dove into the negative impact that traditional soul food has on health. “As Black people, a lot of us had the worst diets,” GZA explained in the video. “We eat some of the, I mean, we eat things I can never even think of. There’s a saying, you know, I’ve read it a few times, that soul food is really like slave man’s diet.” Several sources have written about how soul food impacts the health of the Black community. In October 2016, historian Michael Twitty spoke to NPR about soul food’s historical connection to slavery. GZA elaborated, “Chitterlings. Those are pig intestines. The waste and everything is filtered, it goes through the intestines. You know, people are consuming this. Intestines, pig feet. All this stuff that has so much sodium, salt in it. And we’re known to have high blood pressure because we eat a lot of these foods. ...

Chubby Cat On A Diet Constantly Waits In Front Of Automatic Feeder

Luna was found alone in a cornfield when she was only 5 weeks old, and three days later, she found her forever home and quickly settled in. Her new family already had another cat, Shayla, and figured Luna would learn and take cues from her. They’d always just leave Shayla’s food out and let her eat whenever she was hungry, and figured that method would work for Luna too — until they realized exactly how much she loves food. “When we first got Luna we open-fed her,” Tarin Tanner, Luna’s mom, told The Dodo. “That was a bad idea because she gained weight so fast and at one point the vet handed me a pamphlet on cat obesity. That’s when I knew she had to go on a stricter diet.” Credit: Tarin TannerEven when they stopped leaving her food out, the chubby cat would eat too fast every time she was fed and then cry for food the rest of the day. Luna’s family knew they needed to do something about her obsession with food, so they decided to buy her an automatic feeder that dispensed...
