Thanks for the article. It is thought provoking. Unfortunately, one of
my thoughts is, if ghrelin is applicable to humans and a way is found to
mute its' effects, will it ruin the rapture I have for home grown
tomatoes and sweet corn?


People vary in ability to handle carbs. The big ones are fructose, which
is in sucrose and malt as in beer.

I know the pleasure of sweet corn, put the pot of water to boil and then
pick the corn, ah. And with fresh tomatoes.

Eating tomatoes or especially corn when it is killing you is absurd.

Sigh.... The misinformation here lately is increasing. An ear of
corn has a whopping 13g net carbs, while a medium ripe tomatoe has
about 3g. Neither of these is going to kill you nor are they
incompatible with a LC lifestyle. Clearly, once past induction, you
could eat a couple tomatoes a day and still only be using 20% or less
of your daily carb budget. With corn, if you're doing OK with your
goals and enjoy one or two ears occasionally within your carb budget,
it's fine too.

Careful both corn and tomatoes contain fructose which is a whole 'nother
thing. Corn has to be monitored more carefully than tomatoes, of course.

Roma tomatoes are firm enough that if you're careful they can be eaten
like an apple. Doug writes while munching on one as part of his lunch
today. Most other breeds of tomato are so soft they leak when I bite
into one so I slice them and eat the slices with a fork.

Don't forget sucrose (table sugar): 50% glucose + 50% fructose
