You see stuff like this and wonder who is right and if they are not theres a massive disservice in these stories. Obese on inside???? - StephenIs it worth critiquing some of these high profile media stories and providing alternate view if there is one?

- Gadget FanI would like one or two page pdf versions of the various guides, that could be handed to people. For example, I'd like a compact concise summary pdf of the "science of" page that I can hand to my doctor, with a link to the full guide: https://www.dietdoctor.com/low-carb/science . So far the low-carb leaflet at https://www.dietdoctor.com/low-carb#leaflet seems to be the only printable at this very useful site. Other one or two page pdfs of other focused topics would be useful as well, for spreading awareness of this site with others.
- LindaI would like to see more about weight loss surgery patients and their ability to undergo fasts. Also, menopause and are their special caloric/macro adjustments that need to be considered.
- Tina CremeansI would love to learn how to take all the recipes on Diet Doctor, Pinterest and all of these other places and create a meal plan that would work for my macros. I see so many people and read success stories but every body is different. Everyone's Macros are different. I have not lost a lot of weight on the Keto plan but I believe in it. I would love to learn how to use it to become more healthy and better. I don't want to buy or use someone else's meal plan. I am a picky eater. I am trying to add more fat but I have had Gastric bypass surgery and I am starting to gain weight back.
- SuddyThe vegan and vegetarian communities seem to be getting more aggressive in their marketing and websites. It is sometimes hard to come up with quick comebacks to them, even though the Diet Doctor community knows that we evolved as omnivores, our eating choices are based on real science, and our good health depends on it. Please publish some articles to dispel the myths from the vegan and vegetarian folks. Their guilt inducing comments can be very challenging.
- BobCan you consider an AIP (Autoimmune Protocol) section/recipes in line with a keto? Thankyou.
- Ivadell PalkoI think you all do a great job and love to see something for everyone on this site. Please continue with the articles and videos from experts who delve into the science of metabolism and nutrition. It, for me is particularly interesting to hear or read about research is being conducted.
Thank you. - Gadget FanSuggestion: better organized and more focused search results!
It would be useful if search results were prioritized in some way to have the most useful general information first, rather than just presented in the somewhat jumbled reverse chronological order as they are now. I am often frustrated in trying to find some good and cogent article or science that I have previously read and want to find again to give to someone else.
In your search results, maybe have separate clusters for: guides; reviews/blog postings; news & research; and success stories (anecdotes). And prioritize articles which are tagged with the topic in question, ahead of hits which simply have that word somewhere in their text.
For example, right now, if I search for "cancer", the first hit is a success story. It is an instructive and compelling story, but still only an anecdote. Science, guides, and reviews should come first.
Or, if I search for "salt", the first hit is your recipe "The Keto Bread", and only second is the news article "The Truth About Salt", then followed by more recipes. And if I use the drop-down menu to constrain the search to "news", the first page gives me articles about all sorts of things besides salt, and omits more useful "The Truth about Salt".
As an intermediate step, how about making the drop-down menu under the search buffer allow more options, such as "Tags", "Guides", "Reviews" (survey articles by Mullins, Scher, Fung, etc.), etc., as well as the few modifiers that are already allowed (news, recipes, videos). So for example, clicking on the tag "Salt" (at the top of the post "The Truth about Salt") gives me a much more precise and useful set of articles about salt (to which I can then refer my low-salt friends) -- putting "salt" into the search buffer should provide something just as focused, but it does not.
Thanks again for your excellent site, I continue to refer friends to it for all sorts of topics, most recently GERD, real food instead of fake powder shakes, and quality of evidence from the AHA.
