In the history of promoting low-carb high-fat (LCHF) nutrition, a small group of scientists, doctors, and communicators dared to challenge the dominant dietary orthodoxy — the belief that saturated fat is harmful, cholesterol is dangerous, and carbohydrates are essential at high levels. Their work, based on science, clinical results, and human evolution, directly confronted decades […]

Carbohydrate-rich foods like grains, rice, and refined sugar are extremely recent additions, appearing only in the last 10,000 years with agriculture, and ultra-processed foods only in the last 100 years.

For the vast majority of human history — stretching back nearly 2.5 million years — our ancestors lived primarily as hunter-gatherers1. This wasn’t a casual lifestyle choice; it was a survival strategy shaped by harsh climates, shifting ecosystems, and the demands of the human body.

When it comes to diabetes management, some academic papers remain cautious, waiting for “more evidence” before recommending specific dietary interventions. For example, a recent review on glycemic variability (GV) suggested that while fluctuations in blood sugar may contribute to complications, the exact role of GV is still unclear, and therefore more long-term studies are needed.
