Oddbean new post about login | logout I found carnivore far more mentally easier than keto because the decision making was easier. Did it come from an animal was far easier to answer than how many carbs are in this. Psyllium husks tear up your intestines man. You don't need fibre to poop.
"Psyllium husks tear up your intestines" where did you get this from? I bought that stuff and very occasionally add a spoon or two to a meal but thought it was actually quite good for your health?
Fibre's a psyop man. Think about it. They literally turned flour waste into a health food product. Why would putting indigestible substances into your digestive system be a good idea? Before you say gut biome, I've got some probiotics to sell you.
I did try & find a credible source for the damage psyllium does but I can't find anything. Apparently psyllium is amazing. I guess I made it up.
Sarcasm is such a waste of everybody's time ...
Your argument works great on micro plastics: if it doesn't decompose in hundreds of years, basically being inert, why would it harm to have some mg of it in my body? For fiber though I think there is a case to be made that it increases the volume of what reaches your lower intestines and I think there is scientific evidence it lowers colesterol. Clearly it's not its chemical properties but its mechanical properties.
