I don't think I understand what this means. Are they saying your body will not burn fat unless it has carbohydrates to stoke the fire?

it seems like a nonsense quote, since there isn't actually any flame or burning going on, but what am I missing?


I think that's the point. It's fake news. Nonsense.

Somebody said zero carb was hard. Assuming that we are calling "animal products" zero carb, I think it is easy (this means that we are accepting eggs, yogurt, cheese, organ meats and other animal sources of food as zero carb). No worry about too much broccoli possibly triggering me (not likely, but possible) or straying into the slippery slope of other "low carb foods" that could go too far. Honestly the biggest problem I have going zero carb is my wife. She just can't get it through her head that I don't need vegetables for nutrients. *shrug*
