Palumbo and his 'zero carb' diet !!!

[New Hank Wood]

Palumbo appears to care little for the medical evidence surrounding the inhernet health dangers of zero carb diets.

When quizzed on 'renal disease' and other matters the 'Good Doctor' falls unconventionally silent!

[Deicide]

Palumbo's zero carb diet is a health risk to kidney and liver function.

Palumbo's new fad diet has long term health issues; 

Zero carb (ketogenic) diets deplete the healthy glycogen stores in your muscles and liver.

 Depletion of muscle glycogen causes you to fatigue easily, and makes exercise and movement uncomfortable.

Depletion of muscle glycogen leads to muscle atrophy (loss of muscle)

Loss of muscle causes a decrease in your basal metabolic rate.
Your muscles and skin lack tone and are saggy.

Palumbo is a danger to this so-called sport.  To think he has the gumption to call himself a pre-contest guru.  He should 'not' have dropped out his medical studies to pursue bodybuilding!

Once again...tell that to the Inuits. The human metabolism is genetically still a 'low carb' one by and large. Grains are a very, very recent addition to the human diet, barely 10,000 years old.

Wow, for once I agree with you, except for the 10 000 year thing of course.

You are going to bring Young Earth Creationism into this now?

No, we'll keep that on the religious board. I was agreeing with you that zero carbs isn't that dangerous and many people in the past practice this. It is a true test of will and the fastest way to get lean

[McFarland]

Palumbo is a genius.  Carbs are for pussies.

Very true...the problem is that once you get lean, staying that way is quite difficult. I think a very gradual increase in carbs is best...

Can someone post a link to this diet?

[Disgusted]

Can someone post a link to this diet?

No, it is very dangerous and you will die if you try it. Please heed Hanks advise and go eat some carbs!!!!!

[big L dawg]

its not meant to do indefinitely.

Do you have a death wish???

[OTHstrong]

What are you talking about a link. I can right this diet on a paper towel. It goes like this... unlimited chicken breast, unlimited egg whites.....etc, basically protein foods only and you can add some greens such as broccoli or asparagus. Simple.

If you want to get technocal then driving on the highway is dangerous. Assuming you are doing for contest prep that only last 12 weeks, the no its not dangerous, I never witness anyone get hurt.

[big L dawg]

and technically its not a zero carb diet there r trace carbs in lots of things as it probably adds up to 20-30 carbs daily on average

Another person with a deathwish.

Maybe maybe not, just in case I just ate a Snickers bar to be on the safe side.

No your right, but thats what we call it`: zero carbs``because greens don`t ruin your state of ketosis.

Another person with a deathwish.      

Actually I`ve been throught it many times and right now I`m 10 weeks out, believe me i`ll be fine

[OTHstrong]

Snickers, huh

[Disgusted]

Snickers, huh

Yes cause..................I don't wanna die from no carbs!   

[big L dawg]

Another person with a deathwish.      

pussy probably eats pizza and pasta every day.

[Disgusted]

You know me well, maybe we have a special connection. 

[MisterGX]

Declining into a state of ketosis can be near fatal.  Thank Christ Palumbo has an understanding of medicine or we could be seeing a lot of very ill clients.

Palumbo actually went to medical school, well that is what he keeps telling everyone!

He did..

[MisterGX]

seems to me one would get very flat on that diet no?

Depends on your metabolism...

How is he a danger?  The diet is not risky to your kidneys if you consume water..  Loss of muscle glycogen will not cause a loss of muscle if you're consuming enough protein & the proper fats..
