Low Fat (No) ... Low Carb (Absolutely)

I recently watched an excellent TED Talk by Dr. Peter Bruknerabout the food industry's deception and medical industry misguidance (wrong advice based on zero evidence) for 40 years. See the YouTube link at the end of this post. 

Highlights, Key Points and Conclusions:
.. poorly researched studies drove food/medical industry to low fat - high carb
.. incorrectly concluded high fat caused cardiovascular disease
.. industry substituted sugar/carbs in low-fat foods - driving obesity/Type 2 Diabetes 
.. a Keto diet is suggested/recommend maintain daily carb between 30 - 100 grams
.. the body burns glucose first and fat second
.. reduce sugar, starches, vegetable oils, processed foods, 'low-fat' foods
.. increase water, fresh fruits and veggies, meat and fish, full-fat dairy and eggs 
.. best supplement to take - the most nutritious food - eggs
.. solution is simple J.E.R.F. = Just Eat Real Food
