The Big Fat Lie - Embracing Fat in your lifestyle

About this Group:

We've been told that eating Fat is what makes us fat....and turns out, that was wrong. Come discuss Keto here and find out.

The Lipid hypothesis seemed like the answer to why we become fat, and for years we were lead down a path of "Avoid the fat" mentality. This group is dedicated to exploring the idea that it's not the fat we consume, but the food we consume that is stored as fat that is the cause.
