His app is one of the best on the market..it does some pretty cool things with calculating calorie and macro changes based on user inputs each week. Implements keto diets really well which can be hard with protein levels so easily knocking people out of ketosis. Definitely a step above compared to something like MFP.Layne loves to call out psuedo scientists and conmen in fitness, then starts sprouting sh*t like "carbon takes out the guesswork"

Fair enough, but that kind of marketing spin would send him into a white hot rage diatribe if it was coming from one of his 'opponents'. Just seems very hypocritical.His app is one of the best on the market..it does some pretty cool things with calculating calorie and macro changes based on user inputs each week.

I'm all for throwing sh*t at people but Carbon would be my first choice if trying lose weight without a coach or much background in nutrition.
The dude is a dick to people online but he has some excellent content, his chapter on keto in Fat Loss Forever (was doing the rounds on reddit for a while) with D'Agastino was really well written.
I'm not seeing it man. He is all about diet flexibility and evidence based practice and his app doesn't have any conflicts with this. I've been on bb.com since 2002 when Layne was Str8flexed and going through grad school and he hasn't changed his message a whole lot that entire time.Fair enough, but that kind of marketing spin would send him into a white hot rage diatribe if it was coming from one of his 'opponents'.

His app is entirely designed to take the guess work out of making week to week macro and calorie changes based on goals and regular check ins - it's not being hypocritical to make a claim like 'taking the guess work out'
Layne gets in pointless wars with the likes of Fung, Tao, Sissen, Baker, Mikhaila Peterson etc when they make claims that aren't backed by a solid amount of analysis and are unwilling to make concessions. He never seems to be overly concerned about somebody marketing a product, and I give the example of D'Agastino of being about as keto as anybody having a whole chapter in his book and promoting exogenous ketone products and that's because of Dom and his message about where keto fits overall in nutrition.
But jesus he is a whiny b*tch if they make claims that oppose what seems to be his sh*t test like
- Equated for calories and protein does it have a metabolic advantage (which gets LCHF/Keto responses)
- No evidence that nutrient timing has an impact on fat loss (IF crew)
- Adherence to diets is poor, if the diet isn't suited to the long term then more likely to fail so make sure the diet is a good match for the person even if it isn't the absolute ideal (Vegan, keto, IF)
- That which can be asserted without evidence, can be dismissed without evidence.
All I'm saying is that diet is a pattern of eating and not a religion, Layne has a penchant for getting triggered to sh*t the moment somebody tries to schill something that doesn't pass the sniff test but you won't see him going after other coaches or vegan, carnivore cookbooks, IF apps or some sh*t.
I don't pick sides on this stuff, I'm in allied health and did some of the sports nutrition (under Glenn Cardwell) and human nutrition electives during undergrad as well as seeing the work that SLP's and RD's do with degenerative brain conditions, renal etc on a daily basis - I don't have a side, I just like keeping an eye on the latest things that are going on.
Put some lite salt in water and drink that in the morning and eveningAnyone using an electrolyte supplement? At the start of pushing towards keto again and having periods of some lethargy, even when keeping the fats high. Wondering whether I'm just taking longer to adjust than I have in the past as I'm older and probably sicker or i need some pottassium and sodium

I don't suffer with keto flu but once i'm well adapted I get anxious at night and struggle to sleep and also get mildly constipatedAnyone using an electrolyte supplement?

dod you get any gastro like effects when you first started using it?

10g of grass fed butter and 5g coconut oil every morning for the past 5 yearsDoes anyone still do bulletproof coffee? I've just started it again after a few years of not doing it. I'm putting 25g of butter, teaspoons of MCT and 2 squares of Lindt 95% in it.
To be honest I just do it because I prefer to eat 2 large meals per day but train in the morning and don't like having a completely empty stomach until lunch time. I also find it means I don't have any issues with keto adaption/keto flu/brain fog issues when I've had cheat meals or cycling carbs in and out of my diet.The more I do this the more I think we over complicate it.
There's a bit of the energy deficit model that's correct, and there the drivers of hunger with UPF.
Personally I try and minimise grains/rice and booze....mostly none of both, but I'm not chucking fat in my coffee other than a splash of milk. Potatoes minimised but not excluded
As for fats: whatever I cook in and what comes with the food plus some added oils in dressing. Cooking fat is largely ghee, sometimes olive oil
And stick to whole foods, whether that's plants or meat...for me it's both...I'd get bored shitless as a carnivore or a vegetarian.
This seems to give me the statiety I need
Help me, I’m dying of a glucose deficiency over here
To make matters worse, this guy’s a professor of medicine at oxford
So a more accurate tweet might look like. Glucose = you'll die without it (if you're administering exogenous insulin)Help me out here - my wife's a T1 diabetic so on observation that tweet makes sense to me.
