The problem with the Keto diet is not that it doesn't work, it does for many people, it is that there is a fallacious premise at the root at the diet. The fallacy is that advocates of the diet state that glucose- derived from carbohydrates is not the preferred fuel source for the body, when in fact it is the preferred source of energy. To see why, look at hospitals- what do they put in IV's? Fats?? No, they typically put a glucose solution. Why? Because this is essential for the body's metabolic processes.
With all the controversies surrounding low-carb diets and the scores of variation, the first step is to become informed. You need to know how cutting carbohydrates works, what foods have carbohydrates, and how to eat a balanced low-carb diet with sufficient fiber, protein and fats.
