Bulk. The word bulk to mean means most, not all. This is starting to smell of PETA propaganda. I’m not arguing that you can have an optimal diet with 0 carbs. You can survive with practically 0 carbs, and you can have a very good diet with 10-20% carbs. You are yet to show anything that refutes that.
You are again missing the point. Yes, a human being can maintain a trotting pace over long distances, but other cursorial hunters can do the same, at a faster rate and with more aggression. You are comparing apples to oranges between humans and horses, which (again) as pack animals do not need to outrun potential predators over long distances but merely need to outrun their slower herdmates. At any rate, your cursorial hunter-gatherer will require carbohydrates in order to chase down prey over long distances; running in the anaerobic range for a long duration will result in detrimental loss of lean muscle mass.
Oh, for crying out loud. I’m not a vegetarian, I’m not advocating vegetarianism, and your ad hominin attack does nothing to bolster your argument. Although you keep insisting that I cite basic facts in nutrtional biochemistry–like the fact that you require carbohydrates in quantity to efficiently process protein–you’ve neglected to provide even a single citation to bolster your own extraordinary claims. Until you do so (and preferably in your own thread that doesn’t continue this hijack any further), I’m done with this discussion.
The biggest % of the liver’s weight is glucogen; doesn’t get much more “carbs” than that! And yet most people think of it as “meat” and therefore “protein”.
You want to see my aunt’s cats fight, give chopped liver to only one of them.
