A diet rich in quality protein, healthy fats, and some fruits/vegetables is preferred over high carbohydrate intake to prevent sleepiness, malaise, and digestive issues.

“The meat I eat is very dense. Meat, eggs, etc. um that I eat is very dense in other nutrients like healthy fats, especially for fish or for uh things of that sort. And I have to eat something. I have a caloric need and if I eat too many starches, I get sleepy. I feel lousy. I don't tolerate dairy. I love fruits and vegetables. But if I eat too many fruits and vegetables, I feel lousy because my gut can only take so much fiber. So that's what's worked for me because it basically establishes all the things that I'm looking for, right? I want enough fiber, but not so much that I'm bloated or gassy or not feeling well or I have to run to the restroom all the time. I want enough protein for syn protein synthesis and to cover any, you know, exercise induced needs, but I also like the way it tastes. Yeah. And I like what it brings with it and I source it from quality sources. So, it's hard for me to punch a hole in that argument. And I like rice as much as the next person. But if I eat two big bowls of rice, I feel like garbage. If I eat one bowl of rice with a nice little piece of of grass-fed meat and a big salad and some vegetables and some berries for dessert, I feel like a king. Yeah.”
