The real culprit is meat, dairy, eggs, fish, refined foods.

Reply to comment by JackEddyfier in In a study examining conversation as a vehicle for social influence, researchers found that changing the mind of someone who is dismissive of efforts to protect the planet could be accomplished by sharing a pro-sustainability point of view during a verbal or written exchange. by memorialmonorail
A pro-human point of view is a sustainability minded one...

It used 41 studies, which probably didn't control for sugar intake either. No one does.

Into sugars your body then uses for energy

It has to do with how the body responds to the release of insulin. Keto/low carb works because your blood sugar stays low, so fats (generally) become fuel rather than storing it away in your arteries.
For a more elegant and educated explanation, I highly suggest Gary Taubes: Good Calories Bad Calories (or any of his works, really).
Edit: I should add that for people without metabolic disorders, there is more wiggle room, but the principle stays true.

and if you do it at a large enough scale for enough people, the ensuing physical damage is problematic, but when used on a large scale, is effective in inoculating an entire population effectively through the medium known as 'fear'

Surprising fact to some but Asians do have high levels of diabetes especially without being overweight

Whats so bad about the in between? Is it because it leads to overconsumption or is there something inherently bad about med-carb med-fat diets?

To be in such a fate of blissful ignorance. Of how the climate crisis will affect food security and civil conflict (bigger problems than sea-side real estate, IMO) over the next human lifetime. How these changes are likely to persist for the next several hundred generations after that.
And should the realization dawn that they've chosen an immiserated future for their children, grandchildren and further descendants, I expect they'll blame the climate scientists for not warning them urgently enough.

Reply to comment by AllanfromWales1 in Tilavonemab in early Alzheimer’s disease: results from a phase 2, randomized, double-blind study by burtzev
Three different amounts of the drug. As for placebo it would be 'hard' to devise 3 different amounts of nothing in solution. Maybe one could lie to the control group and tell them that they are getting different doses of the nothing solution. The article compares the effects to the placebo, hence the results are implicit in the design.

That sounds reasonable indeed. Interesting result though, the future will tell us more.

Why does this include the results for the three doses of tilavonemab, but not for the placebo group?

Phasing out coal in 27 years??? That’s insanity if people that we can actually do that. I’d love for us to pivot to handle climate change in a drastic way, but I also know I’m generally just wishing at this point.
We’re going down.

This comment highlights why Climate Change will in fact wipe us out.
Every individual trying to "Get theirs" and then we will see about doing something.
