Such logic. So many facts. Such deep reasoning. And I'm dazzled how
wonderfully your answer connects with the words above. Been saving it
up, have you...?

I don't recall not answering questions; perhaps you can point to them
and I'll happily answer.

No. I didn't say that. I actually never suggested not eating carbs. I
happen to like some of them and consume them regularly. I *like* them.
But I don't *need* them. Just like you don't *need* them.

Unless you have some responsible citation that demonstrates that we do...

Maybe you could list some that are essential nutrients that we have to
eat to get. I'll wait. Again.

Read along with me here. It has not been demonstrated that dietary
carbohydrates are necessary for human survival. That is, they are not
"essential nutrients" as defined by the community of scientists who use
that expression. See how simple it is. And, BTW, it would be good not to
make up definitions and then attribute them to others.

Given the clumsiness of your writing, the stunted use of logic, the
construction of straw men, and the grammatical blunders, perhaps you
need to look to your diet to see if it's *affecting* your thinking. All
you've offered is insult and heated rejection with nothing to support
your silly, excited ranting.

Run along now.

There's a good kid...
