Do you think about is your focus primarily at this point, food quality, or do you, you know, are macros a consideration. Are you trying to be in ketosis or example, good point? I'm

not trying to be in ketosis. I sort of have keto days because, you know, I have a piece of fish for lunch and a vegetable and a piece of steak for dinner and a vegetable and a glass of wine, and that's my days. You know, allotments and that's a very keto day. I don't have a lot of days where I'll wear. My cards will be up to over a hundred. But if they are because of metabolic flexibility, I don't feel drag (expletive) because I had carbs and now I'm feeling like I need to take a nap that doesn't really happen to me. What I said about eating dinner or a dessert is more of a immediate response to blood sugar and things like that that you know, I don't sleep as well. But you know if it were During the day or the next day. I wouldn't be dragging because I got kicked out of Quito. Yeah. Since which is a line. I used to hear from a lot of people who are, you know, all the all key to all the time and when they went off and when they'd have 120 grams of carbs, they feel like (expletive). Well, that's not metabolic flexibility. That's just an allegiance to Quito. That didn't really correct a lot of the problems that we're going on. So I'm keto ish and but but almost by just the nature of the choices I make. It's not like I'm purposely trying to be keto. I'm just because I know to eliminate certain things that don't serve me well. And I know to include other things, protein becomes a Big Driver of everything. Like as long as I can focus on protein for the day are almost don't care what the other macros are. And you know, again as my philosophy. Evolved over the years. It was a time when I was adhering of Ron Rosedale. Who would say, oh my (expletive), and being over 40 grams of protein a day and you got to, you know, mtor is going to come into play. And it's a, you know, it's a precancerous sort of root. And, and it's a, it's an aging strategy, not an anti-aging strategy and I'm past that, I think we've decided that, you know, all these things like m2r, play a positive role for the most part, and we want to promote mtor to a certain extent because that's, you know, Growth and and certainly if you're, you know, under 20 years old, you want a lot of that. So I look now at protein, being sort of the main driver like if I and it's not just the main driver of, as the preeminent macro because a body can pretty much do anything with with amino acids with protein, right? Again, you can do gluconeogenesis. You can make glucose most of the sources of protein have fat, you know, alongside a company. So you're going to get fat with that anyway, So, there is a rationale behind a carnivore diet that says, you know, you really don't need a lot of extra. We certainly don't need any extra macronutrients, if you're eating carnivore, and you probably don't need that much in the way of micronutrients, if you're eating cardboard, so, as as a using protein, as the primary driver and protein being the most satisfying, and in my world, tasty choice of food, it makes It's eating really easy and it's almost like to he's like a go to restaurant and you know, I'm going to have a steak or lamb or even a pork chop. I don't eat too much chicken, but a fair amount of fish shellfish shrimp. I mean, it's a great, it's a great way to live. It's not, you know, inexpensive if you're eating dining out a lot. But if you're eating at home, it a way to make that work for sure.

Yeah, not everybody's Mark Sisson. Okay. No. No, but I mean, I have a lot of friends who will

eat four pounds of ground beef. Add a, you know, yeah, there is a there is a way to optimize for persimmon. Yeah. And love it economically, you know, and thank, you know, and I and you know, some of the best meals I have or when my wife will cook like a shepherd's pie or something like that. So, You know, I'm not. It's just, you know, yeah. In in Miami the tendency is to is to dine out a fair amount. Yeah,

I mean, if you're, if you're living in Miami and you're not eating out on a regular basis, you're kind of like, what are you doing Point? Yeah. No, you're so right.
