[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ve done it for many years, so yes you can stay on it.

No, [b]your body doesn’t need carbs,[/b] and neither does your brain, no, keto does not destroy your kidneys.[/quote]

Please cite medical research. [/quote]
NP and too lazy to go looking, but on super low carb diets, your body manufactures them itself. If you need proof that the human body doesn’t need carbs, the existence of humans in the Arctic Circle, who survived pretty much on meat and fish (they ate plants and thus carbohydrates where available, but it’s not like the Arctic is a rich source of plant-based foods), is it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inuit_cuisine

I’m not defending a keto diet for widespread consumption - nothing could be more tedious than listening to a friend calculate macros - but no, we don’t really need carbs. They sure are tasty![/quote]

It's a less efficient process.  It requires more fuel and produces less energy.  That's why keto may be good for weight loss for some people but it's not a good way to live.[/quote]
