After some health issues I did a whole food plant based, no SOS, Keto diet. My cholesterol ratio went to 1.08 without meds, I lost a ton of weight, was full of energy and got fit as fuck, and apparently I was “full of color” because I was now eating a ton of vitamins and nutrients. Great diet but viciously difficult to keep up with unless you have a peraonal chef.
I’ve also done several stints of mostly veg with some fish keto, and every time it’s like magic. Feel great, clear head, drop 5kg over a couple weeks. It’s always back-to-back social things or travel that break it. If I lived in a bubble or some keto-only hippie commune, I’d be shredded like a block of cheddar.

Needless to say, I am no longer that strict.
FIBER does slow down the absorption of fat, cholesterol and sugar. i

But a block of cheddar isn’t shredded. It’s a block. Shredded cheddar is shredded.
The cheddar GETS shredded through work.
It was the COVID lockdown that killed it for me. I haven’t been terrible since, but I also have not found the motivation to go hard core again.
