When AI first came out I thought it was just an overhyped search engine. But now I am in love with AI. I use it for research. To come up with illustrations. To see what's trending, etc. I use it to write scripts, and pasted it into AI to be graded. It spit out a handful of suggestions, a few that I thought were worth incorporating.

I thought I would test this for a while. It's graphically pleasing, seeing a cover image for each forum along with the latest activity in those forums. The other thought I have entertained is simply displaying ALL topics on a single page as the default, regardless of it's specific forum or category.

Keto Beat the Mediterranean Diet A new randomized trial from Washington University, published in Cell Metabolism (August 27, 2026), compared three diets in people with obesity, prediabetes, and fatty liver: • Ketogenic (4% carb / 73% fat / 23% protein) • Mediterranean (50% carb / 35% fat / 15% protein) • Very-low-fat plant-forward (70% carb / 15% fat / 15% protein) All food was provided. Weight loss was matched at about 10%. Muscle insulin sensitivity improved about 50% on every diet. The liver and blood sugar did not treat the diets as equal. Keto cut liver fat 67% vs 45% on the other two diets, improved liver insulin sensitivity two to three times more, dropped 24-hour glucose and insulin harder, and sent prediabetes into remission in about 50% of that group vs 29% Mediterranean and 7% low-fat.

Is chasing high ketone numbers actually necessary… or just another source of unnecessary stress? In this episode of Carnivore Talk, we dig into the obsession with staying in deep ketosis every single day. We’ll look at what ketones actually do, when they matter, and why many long-term carnivore and low-carb eaters feel better (and get better results) once they stop treating the ketone meter like a scoreboard.

I am testing out a more content-focused index page that uses images for a forum cover image and shows the latest 5 discussions in that forum. I created the images with laptop view in mind. They need some refining in mobile view but they still work. On PC view, the latest 5 topics are presented in a list. On mobile view, you will see a topic below the forum title and description, and you can swipe right to view the next topic in order (up to the 5 that's listed). As always, click the forum title or cover image to enter a particular forum to see the entire topic list. The former "Latest Posts" widget that was at the top of the index page has been moved to the right sidebar on labtop (scroll way down on mobile).

I did the pee test strips on my first Atkins journey in the mid 90's. It was cool to see that I was "in ketosis" but I never obsessed over it. Once the way of eating becomes routine, a lifestyle, it becomes irrelevant. But at time is was a motivator, like patting myself on the back, lol.

I don't track anything. I do supplement Vitamin D3 and K2 daily, and an electrolyte drink mix similar to LMNT that I got off Amazon about 2 or 3 nights a week before bed. This is to avoid cramps, and is really only needed on days where I don't eat a lot. The Reddit guy is 3/4 moron, lol. I can grant him that eating too much of anything can put fat on you. But I cannot think of any downsides to eating only meat.

I consider myself 97% carnivore since May 12, 2023. which as of this writing is also 1199 days. @Geezy started 3 days prior to me. I was super strict my first year. Now, on what I consider RARE occasions, I might consume a single-ingredient whole food that isn't meat. But by and large I am living a carnivore lifestyle.

Haven't done any insects yet, although I've heard that crustaceans are simply the insect of the sea, lol. But apparently insect consumption is common in some cultures, and was something maybe all humans were doing in primitive times. Ironically, this was the topic of one of our Monday livestreams several weeks back.... https://www.youtube.com/live/xdHHt8PNIgU?si=Z3MQhQDhBgiq6SFl

"The surgeon-in-chief of Napoleon’s army at the Siege of Alexandria (1801), Baron Dominique-Jean Larrey, wrote in his memoirs that the consumption of horse meat helped the French to curb an epidemic of scurvy. The meat was cooked but was freshly obtained from young horses bought from Arabs and was nevertheless effective. This helped to start the 19th-century tradition of horse meat consumption in France." - Quote from "Who Discovered the Cure for Scurvy" https://www.juniorsbook.com/tell-me-why/who-discovered-the-cure-for-scurvy/
