You wrote high carb low fat increas risk of obesity? Which I'm surpised by, so what's a good amount of fat to make sure that dosent happen? I've been trying to drop fat consumption lately to try to increase carbs, so that thyroid will be better. Haven't been long, but I feel way way more energy, but don't want to drop fat too low if you say thar can cause obesity š
Hey Bella, are you referring to this sentence: "Research has found that diets high in sugar and low in fat are negatively associated with obesity"? If yes, that means the opposite: high sugar, low fat diets lower the risk of obesity.
Thank you for this great article! I have a question about how rapidly blood sugar rises. Is it better if it rises slowly after a meal rather than spiking? I feel like when I eat fruit, it tends to rise steadily but white sugar tends to spike it. Or is this just in my head because all sugar is sugar? Or is it the fiber in the fruit? Thank you!
Hey Cristy, yes, a steady rise is better. It could be due to the micronutrients provided in fruits which help cells metabolize sugar. I'd invite you to check out my podcast episode on the topic: https://fundamentalnourishment.substack.com/p/q-and-a-1

Can you please do an article (preferably with an audio recording) on weight loss for older women? Thanks.
Hey Nat, yes, absolutely, that will be one of the next things I plan on working on :)
Hi Kaya, you have a post where you touch on turmeric or curcumin and serotonin. Can you link me to that article?
Just pointing out a typo in annex and title "It makes your smarter"
Should be "you" unless going for irony š
Thank you for always spotting my typos! š«” Not irony, just typo blindness from looking at this article for too long.
It's that blue light toxicity š
