I only caught wind of this nonsense a day or two ago, and my immediate reaction was a hard eye-roll. I don’t know Cole Robinson, the so-called Snake Diet guy, all that well. I skimmed some of his stuff way back when, and now I see he’s tangled up in this latest fad. Frankly, it’s a big fucking yawn for me. The boring story is that he promoted the hell out of it for however long, now he’s backtracking, and others in the sphere are WTF? Likely theater is my guess.

Let’s get one thing straight: calling it the “Sugar Diet” is a goddamn misnomer. It’s nothing more than a spin on the old low-fat, high-carb approach, with the added gimmick of what I call the “sugar hack.” What’s that, you ask? It’s simple—you do nothing but stuff your face with fruit, soda, candy, and other sugary stuff for a short stretch. The point of this stunt is that it’s automatically low in fat and protein, allowing you to see how your body reacts. I’ll give it this much: it’s a phenomenal experiment to run for a few days. That’s what piqued my interest in this whole circus to begin with.

But let’s not kid ourselves. This is just a rehash of the low-fat, high-carb diet, cycling back to the same we’ve seen before. It’s the polar opposite of the high-fat, low-carb craze, and there’s a damn good reason for that dichotomy. Yet, almost no one seems to grasp that they’re fundamentally doing the exact same thing—just in completely opposing ways. It’s like watching two idiots argue over whether to drown in a pool or a lake. Same result, different scenery.

I’m going to lay it out for you straight, no bullshit, in a way you won’t hear from any of the fucking low-carb zealots—be they keto, carnivore, or whatever the hell else—or the sanctimonious vegans of any stripe. They all operate on the same goddamn mechanism, and it’s not about low protein or any of that. I’m going to tell you what it is, the dirty little secret none of these charlatans will ever admit to. Why? Because the moment they do, their influence vanishes. People will go, “Oh, really? That’s all I have to do? Well, fuck you, I don’t need your guru ass anymore.”

So let’s be clear: all low-carb advocates of every flavor, and all vegans, are fucking frauds. They’re dishonest pieces of shit because they know this truth, and they bury it. They thrive on keeping the antagonism alive—because that’s how they rake in the cash. It’s all a game of perpetual conflict. Low-carbers will peddle their diet as the holy grail, always claiming it’s infinitely superior to veganism. Vegans, on the other hand, will preach their plant-based gospel as the ultimate moral and health high ground, shitting on carnivore or any meat-heavy approach. It’s all theater, folks, a goddamn circus to keep you hooked and paying for their books, courses, and bullshit supplements.

Here’s the dirty secret they’ll never cop to: both extreme low-carb diets and vegan diets work by doing the exact same thing—they separate fat from carbohydrates. That’s it. Vegans pull this off by keeping fat intake ridiculously low. They can eat whatever plant-based stuff they want, but there’s almost no fat in it—just the trace amounts naturally found in vegetables or whatever. Low-carbers, on the other hand, do the opposite. They keep carbs—especially starchy items like rice, grains, and bread—to an absolute minimum or cut them out entirely, while loading up on fats. So, both camps are avoiding the deadly combo of sugar and carbs mixing with fat, just in completely opposite ways.

And here’s the kicker: both approaches can be damn effective. They’ll never admit it, though. Vegans will scream that low-carb is poison, and low-carbers will rant that vegans are malnourished hippies killing themselves. But the data doesn’t lie. I did a deep dive into this just last night, and guess what? When you look at inflammation markers and stress markers, both vegan and low-carb diets perform incredibly well. There’s not a huge difference between them in terms of reducing systemic stress and inflammation. Yeah, I said it—two diametrically opposed diets, and yet they both deliver on key health metrics.

So why the hell won’t they ever say this out loud? Because the common denominator is the one thing they don’t want you to figure out: they both succeed by not combining fat and carbohydrates. They just go about it in reverse. Once you understand that, their whole house of cards collapses. You don’t need their dogma, their tribalism, or their fucking subscription plans. You just need to grasp this fundamental principle and apply it however the hell you want. And that, my friends, is why they’ll keep lying to your face—because the truth sets you free, and they can’t afford that.

Here’s the deep dive with Grok, in DeepSearch mode. It’s quite extensive. Here’s Grok’s conclusion.

Based on the clinical evidence reviewed, there is scientific support for the hypothesis that consuming significant amounts of fat and carbohydrates together can be a root cause of dietary problems, including obesity, due to increased fat storage and metabolic dysfunction. Diets that reduce this combination, such as vegan and low-carb diets, may help mitigate these effects, offering potential health benefits. However, individual health considerations and further research are essential for personalized dietary strategies.
