“The diet can lead to clinical improvement, including better glycemic control, lower cholesterol, and weight reduction”.
Amen to that. Now let’s here from the oatmeal and raisins lady. |

| Unless you have a medical reason for needing to do keto, it's not healthy. Your body needs carbs. |

Do you people even click on links, cause it feels like you’re a bot programmed to repeat this sentence in every thread about keto |

| Except my cholesterol sky rocketed on it. |

Well first I don't see any links in this thread. Secondly, its just science, period. You want a quick fix and you're destroying your kidneys and metabolism in the process. Eat a balanced diet and no need for keto or any other latest fad diet of the moment. |

You have to use good fats like extra virgin olive oil and avocado oil not dirty keto bad fats. Mostly the good cholesterol goes up and triglycerides go down. |

For about a third of people on a keto diet, their numbers (cholesterol, blood sugar, etc.) improve. For a third of people, their numbers don't change. And for about a third of people, their numbers get much worse. You're in good company. |

Did that, apparently didn't matter |

I got too many kidney stones on it. I do oatmeal, but put walnuts and bananas or blueberries in mine. |

| I too got kidney stones on keto. I now add fresh berries and high protein yogurt to my diet and push water all day. |

| Kidney stones and higher cholesterol over here and did it cleanly. |

+100 Carbs are essential for healthy brain function, but OP is clearly faltering. Not to mention your GI tract and colon. If you're too stupid to differentiate between a sweet potato and a cupcake, then there's no point in having a discussion. |

Yep. I was put on it by my doctor for weight loss. I worked with a nutritionist in the practice and got into actual ketosis and stayed there for over a year. A lot of the "I eat keto!" people don't actually eat keto. Basically, if it's a delicious vegetable, it's not keto-friendly. And the only fruit that was approved was raspberries and even then the serving size was 6. I always had zero energy and the longer I was on it, the weaker I felt. I played soccer from the time I was 4 all the way through college. My legs were very strong and defined. I lost all of that on keto and now, after being off it for nearly 3 years, I still don't have the muscle tone back even after working with a proper trainer. Doing keto is my biggest regret. I lost 45 pounds but put 20 of those back on immediately after stopping. |
