Yes, his book and other sources support the value of glycemic cycling. I was thinking about the cheat days as a generally awesome part of a diet, which is not the relevant point here as we were already talking low carb.
The terminology “cheat meal/day” bothers me, as it implies that it’s not a critical part of the diet or even some sort of “planned moral transgression”- and leads many people to think they might get better results if they avoid it, do it less often. In reality it’s a critical part of the method.

Likewise, somewhat. Well, call it a binge day then. Or a gluttony day. Or an indulgence day.
Same problem. For accuracy, just call it carb or cycle day.
