Could be but bulletproof is really the 100th fad diet invented and somehow neither has a control group who is not a McD junkie but lives on basic standard traditional more-or-less Western “grandma type” homecooked food. Roast chicken, mashed potatoes type food. That would be a useful control group to have.
I must say, eat nothing for X hours can also be a fad diet but it is refreshingly different and does not require difficult and complicated things to do.
One of these days we should discuss the meta of diets here. Are paleo/keto/bulletproof/vegaan/anything primarily aimed at people who have a high control over their diet? For example they live in a Western country but it totally happened with them that they bought a Korean cookbook and tried cooking something from it, they knew where to get ingredients, they were curious about trying things, was it like that? Just because most people I know are running halfway on hand-me-down family recipes in autopilot mode and they buy the other half from some takeaway.
Dave Asprey says, with a reasonably large set of referenced studies, that it’s the mold in food which reduces your fed performance.
