Dietary Cultists - YOU'RE EATING YOURSELF TO DEATH

[swiv]

The juice cleanse/detox cult is easily as autistic as any other food cult. These jackasses swear that drinking some specific combination of juices and not eating anything for a week will "cleanse your digestive tract of toxins" or something. What they don't know is that unless you have some kind of crippling alcohol addiction or your liver and kidneys are diseased, there is no buildup of toxins that needs removing.

These food cults are interesting though because almost all of them are based on some sound principle, but crayon-eaters take things to an insane extreme. I blame the American education system.

Keto people are weird, they're not crazy as the way vegans are crazy but they are very culty indeed.
There are chicks doing keto who are gonna do it till they die, I question the long term effects it has on your body for like years of doing it. Also if doctors tell them not to do keto they're still like fuck you I'm doing keto even more just to spite you

The thing about keto is that it's fine for short periods of time. However, if you do keto for long periods of time, there can be issues. It fucks up your insulin responses, so that if you go off of it, you gain weight back really quickly (and your insulin levels can get fucked up).

My friend is trying to lose weight and he is keto-or-nothing. If he eats a few carbs, it's automatically a failure day and he gorges on anything he sees. Instead of taking my advice, when I tell him to just calorie count, he just has to do keto.
