There seems to be something in human nature that entices us to make things more complicated than they need to be.
Sometimes we need to be reminded of simplicity!
For example, we have had philosophers remind us throughout the ages that the simplest answer is the most likely. For example, Aristotle (384-322 BC) wrote "We may assume the superiority ceteris paribus [other things being equal] of the demonstration which derives from fewer postulates or hypotheses." Or John Punch's summation of the concept of Occam's razor, "Entities are not to be multiplied without necessity."
So for me, I try very hard to keep the focus on simplicity in my life.
Zero carb keto is a huge part of that simplicity!
All that is needed for nourishment is a few small bites of naturally raised, grassfed, untrimmed red meat.
When I say untrimmed, I mean that all of the fat should be kept on the meat!
And it should be red meats only, which need little cooking and have the best nutritional profile. Ideally, no pork, poultry, dairy, eggs, or plant matter, which all can cause inflammation.
The meat should be kept as whole as possible, and cooked with the bones intact as much as possible. This makes for the highest nutrition.
Nothing else is needed or should be added, except for some sea salt and fresh water on the side.
And finally, we should eat only as much as is needed, to 80% fullness, no more.
This seems so ridiculously simple that it is completely foreign to the modern person!
It is a very different way of thinking and living. So much of modern life stems around buying, preparing, serving, and eating food. When all of that complication is taken away, it is very eye-opening and freeing!
