Asian countries eat a lot of rice & noodles, but don’t gain weight. Americans & Europeans eat the same thing and tend to get fat. Why is this? I’ll explain. THREAD

A fasting mimicking diet leads to better glyceamic control despite reduction in medication. As evidence from human trials increase, this method could be a threat to both Big Bood and Big Pharma. Awaiting articles that present FMD as dangerous. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38546821/
