Share a story, ask a question, or start a conversation about (almost) anything you desire. Maybe you'll make some friends in the process.


RULES

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
  5. Keep it clean and SFW
  6. No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

Now you confuse me.... Was your comment above being earnest or mythical?

carbohydrates are structural, and hence the lack of them is extremely harmful.

I don't understand this line, does't it contradict

You can live on a keto diet.

It would, but I'm saying carbohydrates are essential in the same way cholesterol is. You don't necessarily have to eat any (though it's really hard not, considering how many things that you may have to eat due to their other essential elements, do contain at least some carbohydrates), some of your body is composed of carbohydrates.

Like I said, you can technically replace all energy needs with fats.
