The Impact of Including Carbohydrates in a Carnivorous Diet
This chapter explores the impact of adding carbohydrates to a carnivorous diet and how it can improve fasting blood sugar levels even for individuals with diabetes or prediabetes. It introduces the concept of physiologic insulin resistance and emphasizes the importance of including carbohydrates from sources like fruit and honey in a diet.
This week’s podcast covers the controversial topic of fruit juice. Paul makes an argument for why you should include fruit juice in your diet without fearing glucose spikes or carb overload. He explains the benefits of carbohydrates in one’s diet in the form of fruit, honey, and fruit juice.
