This drives me crazy, this all stems from Jordan Peterson and Joe Rogan. We have no idea what JP or his daughter are actually eating. This is the smallest sample size of anecdotes. The fact that this diet has gotten this much attention is absurd.

No it doesn't, there are lots of people 5,10 or longer years on a zero carb diet, has nothing to do with JP. Lots of anecdotes as well ( amber ohearn, kelly hogan, shawn baker, zeroing in on health FB group etc)

A Facebook group? Really? Those are not the kinds of sources that increase credibility in my book

You cherry-picked one of several sources listed just so you could snarkily dismiss the whole point.
We're talking about groups of people experiencing similar health problems, engaging in ongoing discussion to experiment with possible remedial techniques and reporting back with their results.
If they are achieving positive results, which seems to be the case, they deserves better than this kind of sneer.
Peterson and Rogan are new kids in the block. Charlene Anderson for example has been on it for 20 years.
There is nothing absurd about this diet if it is enabling people to successfully manage their diseases (meatheals.com). You should respect and appreciate that fact instead of getting mad about it.
Diet is not religion. It is simply a tool and for some can be a lifestyle.
