my doctor told me to keep up the keto, i was overweight and pre diabetic and I was able to lose a ton of weight on it and am no longer pre-diabetic. I eat pretty clean keto (a lot of avocadoes) and am able to stick to it very easily because I don’t have a sweet tooth. You still get carbohydrates which your brain needs to function properly just not very many of them. Definitely not for everyone but not sure why you think it’s a ridiculous diet.
It’s a ridiculous diet for someone with no preexisting conditions. There may be medical reasons to go on it. It is not necessary, and can be dangerous, for just anyone to attempt it to lose weight. And don’t get me started on all the keto friendly supplements that are hawked to people.
It’s certainly not a silver bullet against fat, but it’s also not dangerous. Your body is perfectly capable of producing glucose on its own, as long as there’s enough energy floating around.
In the majority of cases it is not dangerous. In rare circumstances it can be dangerous. This is something that should be discussed with a medical professional prior to beginning.
Any time you are going to have a restrictive diet change it should be discussed with your doctor.
it depends what kind of keto you’re doing - I think there’s like a vegan keto? but for most people, keto seems to mean increasing the amount of animal products you eat which is undeniably awful for your health. a lot of them start eating tons of meat, putting butter in their drinks, eating tons of eggs and end up with obscene cholesterol levels.
