For me, a (now mostly) carnivore diet, eating lots of fat, has resulted in a huge improvement in mental state. To clarify - it wasn't bad before, I was probably better off than most in terms of mood.
But now after a couple months of carnivore, my mood, optimism, and positivity is much higher, and very steady.
I'm hoping to convince a few people that I know, who have mental health challenges, to try this. Anyone have good resources? I think maybe interviews with Chris Palmer (book Brain Energy) might be good.
Also I just heard a podcast where the interviewee didn't call it carnivore, she said 'low-carb'. I think that may be more acceptable to people. People hear the word carnivore, they think 'crazy'.

The brain needs fat, I agree. Carnivore diet is too restrictive in my opinion. Why cut out a whole macronutrient?
Carbs are not evil.
Sure maybe you can adapt modestly and feel better when you're training but it's not optimal.
Eat some granola an hour before you train versus fasting or being on the carnivore diet and tell me which feels better?
I already know the answer because I've went through all the stuff myself.
It takes less work for your body to turn that granola into ATP for your muscles.
But I'm happy you're on the right track and thinking about your health.
