Awesome 👍👍👍 you have perfect balance of health and bodybuilding . Only so much " evidence based " volume and protein pods you can watch ! The health angle is 👍👍👍
Thanks, Dean! I'm happy you said that. I'm trying to strike the right balance between the two, although, I've definitely slanted towards the health angle recently. I'll be sure to sprinkle in "evidence-based resistance training" episodes, but I hope the audience is happy with the current content split.
I don't think someone should necessarily be talked out of doing a ketogenic diet unless their goal is to *maximize* athletic performance or muscle hypertrophy, for which it's clear that carbs have their place. If someone understands that there's nothing evil about carbs (i.e., their interest in a ketogenic diet does not come from an irrational fear of carbs) and they simply want to experiment with a ketogenic diet, they shouldn't be talked out of it. However, there are better and worse ways to structure a ketogenic diet. First and foremost, the biggest potential issue (IMO) is overdoing it on saturated fat. It's clear that SFA raises LDL-C and that LDL-C is causal in cardiovascular disease (pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28444290/ , pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32428300/ , pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28620111/). Other than that, it's about making sure you're getting adequate amounts of certain vitamins and minerals, as there will always be a greater risk of micronutrient inadequacies when you (more or less) remove an entire food group. In terms of a carnivore diet, I think the burden of proof weighs on the individual considering it. How can they justify following such a diet based on the available evidence? They can't. It's as simple as that. There is an overwhelming body of evidence demonstrating an array of health benefits from consuming plants (e.g., fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, legumes). Furthermore, that swapping out red meat with plant protein improves cardiovascular risk factors (pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30958719/). You can also refer to the above regarding the concerns of saturated fat intake and the benefits of unsaturated fat from plants. If this person can cast aside this data in favor of the anecdotes from some quack on social media, then they clearly didn't come to this idea through reason, and reason (i.e., showing them the scientific evidence) won't persuade them otherwise.

@@murrderRD I think the evidence based bodybuilding science has been squeezed enough not to much evolving over last 5 years
@@deanpaulson6714 I think that's about right XD
Good stuff! Very good listen, had it on while I made some good food.
Thanks for checking out the episode!
There are no good arguments against veganism. None.
At ~32:30, how would you talk someone out of keto or carnivore, exactly? What are your main sorts of points?

Check out Doug Brignole ! He would give a good angle on training
lol, no
