    Keto is good if you actually eat good unsaturated fats. And it’s definitely not a long term thing unless your doctor approves it.

      I’m curious, why do you say it’s not long term sustainable?

          That is new data for me, what causes it to be hell on the arteries?

              There is a lot of debate ongoing in the literature about increased lipid markers and long term cardiovascular health in the context of a lchf (keto) diet.

              I hope to see definitive studies in the future.

                I’m just going by what my doctor told me. I trust him over some randoms on the internet.
