Can you provide
even one
medical case/death attributed to a carbohydrate deficiency? I'll wait.
Fact: consuming carbohydrates are non-essential and harmful to humans.

I have no medical background. But, I do know the primary source of energy in the human body is carbohydrates. Biology 101- 10th grade
Americans eat an overload of carbohydrates. Cutting down on portion size is all that is needed to control weight and remain healthy. Skip the giant plate of pasta and garlic bread or rolls, and choose meat with vegetables instead.
I have a friend who needed emergency surgery. However, she was severely malnourished. She ate 3 meals every day like you and I, but refused to eat any sort of carbs. (She had a strong adversion to the taste of nearly every vegetable. Wheat, sugar, and fructose were the devil's creations.) The end result? She had to remain in the hospital for weeks until she was healthy enough to have the needed surgery. Her hospital bill was over the roof. She is in debt but now eats vegetables, fruits, and whole grains.
Another friend bragged of how much weight he lost on a carnivore diet. He stayed on his diet of eggs, butter, bacon, and beef. He happily brought up the fact that he rarely poops. His body turned on him. He now has all sorts of medical issues.
I find it unfathomable that a person will self precribe instead of consulting a doctor. When my friends talk as if they are medical experts, I can see their future. Pain, surgery, and months of recovery. Or, six feet under. I have no self prescibing friend or family member who has not suffered this fate.
