Eating healthy (lemmy.ml)

Hi Lemmy. I'm wondering if eating healthy or at least getting enough nutrients, would change a person's outlook on certain things. Like I'm trying out keto and certain foods like avocadoes calm my mind down. I guess I'm asking if someone followed a keto diet or vegetarian/vegan lifestyle, would that shape their political ideology? I'm probably being stupid, but it's just a thought I had. Discuss away!

If you "feel it" it has unlikely been proven by science... Prolonged low bloodsugar also raises cortisol levels which can have adverse effects. I would not dare to suggest to anyone what and how to eat since the science remains inconclusive and correlative (i.e. not causal/mechanistic). Also it is not clear that either conventional/organic farming leads to more nutrient rich produce. This is borderline misinformation...
