Crypto. Most LLM based AI. 80-90 percent of the startup world after 2009.
Anything related to toxins or detox. Keto and Carnivore diets.
Most online college programs.
Those vibram finger shoes and barefoot running. Most gym memberships; honestly half of the gym bros need to diet more than they need to slam weights and HIIT
Probably ozempic, since people going off it immediately balloon back up
I've wondered for a long time what the long term impacts of aggressive teeth bleaching are on enamel, too, but not sure if I'd call that snake oil; it works entirely as intended
Keto works, but whether the supposed science behind it is the reason it works, I have no idea.
People say something about ketones and so on, but for me, it's just that eating carbs makes me hangry again soon after I'm done eating them, so I'll want to eat again. Eat less carbs, get less hangry, easier to eat less.
You're thinking of carnivore. Keto is a different thing that focuses on restricting carbs to less than 5g per day and getting most of your calories from good fats, in order to switch your body's primary energy source from carbs to fats, that keeps you fuller and satisfied for longer, encourages the body to burn body fat, stabilises energy spikes and dips throughout the day, stabilises healthy insulin production.
Keto is about being in a state of ketosis, which is typically done by getting most of your calories from fat instead of carbohydrates (and protein).
