Mini Mikkipedia - The Truth Behind the Sugar Diet Hype
Description
Mikki dives into the bizarre and controversial “sugar diet” that’s been making waves on social media. Once dismissed as just another fad, it’s now gaining traction among high-profile influencers, including Mark Bell. Mikki unpacks what the sugar diet actually is, the science behind its surprising short-term results, and why its mechanism might have less to do with sugar itself and more to do with protein restriction and its effects on FGF21. She also discusses the research origins, potential risks, and why this approach may only be suited—if at all—for a very specific subset of people. If you’ve been curious about the hype, this episode delivers the context, caveats, and science you need before even thinking about giving it a go.
Highlights:
- What the sugar diet actually involves and who’s promoting it
- The role of protein restriction and FGF21 in increasing energy expenditure
- Why short-term studies don’t tell the whole story on health impacts
- Genetic and metabolic factors that could make or break results
- Long-term risks, from nutrient deficiencies to liver stress
