I know there are a lot of fad diets and then there is calorie counting as a more science based approach. I myself do calorie counting and follow a strict diet in order to avoid overeating. How do you eat all day, you follow a system?

I take the hormonal model of nutrition to heart. Lecture Paper

Tldr: keep insulin low all the time.... By eating keto

I listen to medical lectures on diets and nutrition for fun

It works for me, it fixes metabolic syndrome, and makes me fun at parties. Lol

Hormonal issues / hyperinsulinemia are behind lots of modern medical epidemics : high blood pressure, diabetes type 2, obesity, PCOS, etc...

    I'm not a hardcore keto person, but I strive towards that. Sugars are so unbelievably bad for us, messing up sleep, hunger and gives you arteriosclerosis among a bunch of other things.

    But the sugar lobby is big, so it's fat we shouldn't eat, right?!
