I was ambiguous over whether to promote this, but it does make a nice illustration of the fallacy of compression. Hopefully the upvotes indicate that others agree with me about the high post quality. But we probably want to compress further dietary discussion into the existing posts, lest LW wander off-topic.
I don't think it's necessarily off-topic, since reducing distractions and difficulties to thought arising from physical body processes should also help make us Less Wrong in our thinking.
I upvoted it for the brilliant-and-yet-obvious-in-hindsight suggestion of monitoring blood sugar. Seth Roberts would approve, I think.
