Go-to breakfast: Buckwheat porridge with almond butter and a banana.
Quick answers
No pun intended, but on “rare” occasions Agrarians can celebrate with a small piece of grass fed beef. The trick is to limit saturated fat and not to make beef a staple.
No. Agrarians don’t deal well enough with dietary fats of any kind to go full "keto."
Nope.
Likely, no. Agrarians tend to have poor histamine clearance and therefore want to limit or exclude fermented foods altogether.
Assuming the celiac genes look good, Agrarians can handle some high quality sourdough bread and even a pancake from time to time as they have strong carbohydrate clearance. Having said that, low quality grain and wheat products aren’t a good idea for anyone to include as a staple.
Biggest challenge
Like all of the diets in our system that flag high for histamine, Agrarians are tasked with figuring out for themselves which foods and lifestyle choices overflow their “histamine bucket.”
Closest relative
Not quite you? The nearest type is Nordic. Nordic and Agrarian diet types will have similar scores for carbohydrate clearance and fat metabolism. The major difference between these two diets is with dairy. Agrarians can handle some dairy but have issues with histamine. By contrast, Nordic diet types have normal histamine scores, but are very likely lactose intolerant.
