Ah yea, I totally mean it as the way you eat, what you include and exclude, not fad based.

Like I am on a flexitarian, low sugar diet. It is nothing that would show outwards, because I eat most things, just not sugar and just a tad of meat.

In some antipsychotics, Zyprexa being the worst but Seroquel coming in at second, the body can handle fat pretty much OK, and proteins normally. It messes up how carbs are processed, is why every doctor prescribing these should say absolutely no sugar and also watch the carbs. But for some reason they don't. I guess they feel it's not their job. If you take a med that makes it impossible to handle carbs, the normal thought would be to restrict that since you can be very healthy and not having carbs as the biggest part of the diet, as very many have.

I do however see the problem in carb restricting, as most people, when they have food cravings, do crave carbs and sugar. It might be something hard to practice in real life.

Many people on those meds get a skewed blood lipid profile so sometimes they go to eating low fat when in fact it is the carbs that cause the lipid issue.
