Can AI tools make meal plans that help us lose weight the right way? In a new study, a team of researchers compared AI’s meal planning abilities to those of a dietician. The results showed that AI-made meal plans – when compared to dietician plans – severely undercalculated the needed amount of calories and macronutrients like carbs and overemphasized other macronutrients like proteins and lipids. The team cautioned that teens should not solely rely on AI to make meal plans for weight loss, saying that the consistent deviation of five different AI models from nutritional guidelines recommended by health organizations could have negative effects on growing bodies.

    Sure. You’re gonna survive. But you’ll have brainfog and your red blood cells aren’t gonna be happy either.

    Plus you need micros…

    Don’t get me twisted. IMO, you gotta balance your diet. Extremes aren’t doing you any favors.

      The human brain can use ketones for its requirements, and your body is able to produce all the carbohydrates it needs via gluconeogenesis. Including the needs of all your erythrocytes.

      Your position isn’t an informed one. A quick pubmed search on ketogenic diets and cognition shows improved and protective benefits.
