Please watch the latest Gary Taubes video from April 2022 and I think you’ll understand why we recommend internalizing his ideas and applying them to your life. It's a deep dive, but a great conversation for those who want to go further in their learning.

The idea behind resistant carbs is they are not digested the same way as regular carbohydrates. Resistant carbs are digested further down in your digestive tract so they don’t spike your insulin levels like regular carbs do.

People have a hard time giving up bread. Here are 10 minutes of reasons to give up bread. After you watch this, it might not be so difficult to give it up.
