Keto is completely retarded cult bullshit. Do you fucking idiots actually think a product based on 80% animal products is healthy or ethical? There is no population in human history that ate this way which was healthy

>Greenland Inuit
Ate a diet almost entirely built on seal, whale, fish and tuna. Yet they are a population with an average lifespan of 64, despite an immunity to AIDS and HIV which is usually the cause of such life expectancies (in Africa for example). The western diet has improved their health, actually.

>Kenyan Masaai
Spent thousands of years eating African Savannah animals, like Tigers, Elephant, Hippo, Hyena and Wolves. Yet they are in a state of malnourishment and have actually had to evolve a mechanism by which to repress scurvy and beta carotene deficiency which limits their life expectancy to 64.

>French Revolutionaries
Had no access to government controlled vegetables, and had to eat cheese and butter as the foundation of their diet. 'Keto' is actually named for 'Le Toes' which was a french revolutionary dish of pickled cow toes with a cheese and buttersauce. Average lifespan? 60.

>Native American Macs
Pemmican and cheeseburgers formed 80% of their diet, and now? They are extinct.

>Japanese Paddy Whackers
Group of Japanese who attacked rice paddies in the aftermath of Hiroshima because they believed them to be infected with radiation, and refused to eat anything other than animal products. Life expectancy in Japan? 85. Life expectancy of the JPW? 70.
