Oh no, Jimmy now doing carnivore? I’d prefer the spokesperson for a ZC lifestyle be Shawn Baker and Amber OHearn, not his sad case. If it is "working for him" it is because he is not lying about how many carbs he eats. An Egg Fast worked for him too...whenever he truly keeps carbs below 20g he loses weight. A one type of protein diet serves to overcome his delusion he can eat watermelon and beignets and claim he's on a Ketogenic diet. It's not the magic of meat.

And some meat history...from Dr Fung's The Diabetes Code

Quote:
In 1797, the Scottish military surgeon John Rollo became the first physician to formulate a treatment that carried any reasonable expectation of success. He had observed substantial improvement in a diabetic patient eating in all -meat diet. Given the uniformly grim prognosis of diabetes this approach was a breakthrough. This extremely low carbohydrate diet was the first diabetic treatment of its kind.


I was re-reading a few sections of books on the early history of fasting for diabetes treatment, when the Carnivore Diet was also a treatment. Missed that the first read, but now that ZC is the rage, it stands out as an option to fasting.
