But yes, be a good goy and make yourself fat and eat le whole grains (make sure to only cook them in water, not milk!) so we can save the meat for the breeding males of society.
I still insist that the stress of ketosis for two years opened up a world of autoimmune diseases for my mom and her chiropractor turned 'nutritionist' should have his license stripped.

Keto is a good meme diet for morbidly obese people who need to lose a high amount of weight very quickly.
A lot of people who are morbidly obese are on high carb diets, and thus, have developed insulin resistance, if not outright Type 2 diabetes.
Keto retrains your body to stop depending on sugar as a fuel source, and converts to using fat as fuel.
Your sense of taste changes too, and becomes much more sensitive.
>Be on keto 6 months >One day I take a sip of my wife's coffee >HOLY SHIT HOW MUCH FUCKING SUGAR DID YOU PUT IN THIS. IT TASTES LIKE SYRUP
>just 1 teaspoon like always....
Benjamin Hernandez
No matter what you're on, if you get used to less sugar it something it tastes Hella sweeter when you go back (even 1/2tsp sugar in fact)
Angel Robinson
Definitely, if you want quick short term results, it's great. But losing weight shouldn't be that way. Also if any morbidly obese person starts eating less in general, they'll still lose a lot of weight fast.
Justin Long
>Also if any morbidly obese person starts eating less in general, they'll still lose a lot of weight fast.
Not entirely true if they have severe insulin resistance.
Once you reach that point, carbs still get converted to fat, regardless of lower calorie intake.
Because of this, you keep getting fatter and fatter, and your body thinks you're starving because it sucks at converting glycogen, and gluconeogenesis.
The result being that you lose muscle and bone mass along with your fat.

keto diet is best diet. i don't mean diet as in a corrective regimen, but as a model of health.
lots of dumbasses are gonna cry that 'it's a meme', when books detailing the process were in wide publication while they were a drop of jizz in their missing nigger fathers crumpled ballsack. for them, you call it 'protein sparing modified fasting' like doctors do.

Because I am not obese and never have been. I'm also not brain-damaged or American. If you look around, even in this thread, only fat idiots ever do keto. Fat morons who don't understand nutrition. Normal people who have been normal weight and healthy their whole lives don't do it. Go to Vietnam, Thailand, Kenya, you won't find keto and you won't find diabetes or obesity. Keto is Americanism in its purest form, already having among the lowest carb diets on the planet and being so oblivious to reality that you manage to convince yourself carbs caused some sort of health problem. Total anti-intellectualism fueled by reddit and YouTube memes.

Or why keto would make you better at reading books. And I doubt keto would make you stomach the longest books in one sitting. This probably has more to do with you having nothing else to do. >he has excess body fat now that's just plain wrong >he eats WHOLE GRAINS they're delicious >he can't fit buttered beef into his calorie budget You're the person with eating habits so out of wack you need to count calories and respect a calorie budget or else your lack of self control would make you ill.

So am I. I've been doing it for about 2 years. Blood glucose levels are great now. Usually I'm riding around 90-100 mg/dL. I get a low about once a month now, and when in dietary ketosis does not make my blood sugar level drop during exercise. Daily exercise does lower my basal dose requirement by about 15%. I can jog a half marathon without being worried. I get a high of over 150 mg/dL about twice a month, usually from eating too much protein. You have to watch it with that. Protein is metabolized in a similar way to carbohydrates, but more slowly. I haven't had a crazy DKA high in so long, but you have to understand it's a completely different animal from low-level dietary ketosis. It's like a baby kitten vs. a man-eating lion. I can't always be completely carb-free because shit happens. For me this works much better.
Those lows will ruin your body, too. They don't like to tell you about that. Knew a girl who died at 27 from frequent excessive hypos. Liver damage.

Recently, I had to conduct an experiment on surviving the piece of shit American healthcare system using ghetto R and N insulins. Conventional treatment of 2 N injections daily with complicated R bolus peaks overlapping throughout the day hearkens back to the days of carb-based diet recommendations. Only fairly recently has the basal/bolus dosage treatment become standard. Anyway, my will to survive drove me to find out if it was possible to achieve a relatively stable blood glucose level with R and N on a ketogenic diet.
I took my known ideal basal dose (Lantus) and multiplied it by 0.8, then split it into 4 equal doses of N injected every 6 hours. Testing every hour for 24 hours of fasting, I was on a 6-hour cycle of 80-150. Next, I added 1 unit of R with every injection, adding in increments of 1 until the 150's came down. After 3 days I hit on the perfect dose with gave me a gentler roller coaster of 80-120. Started eating again, keto style. Levels were fine. It works. Carbs are cunts.
Joseph Martinez
I did try keto for a while and had great results as a type 1 on a pump. I had stage 1 kidney failure a few years ago though and I'm worried about stressing my kidneys. I don't actually know enough about my own disease or body to say how keto would affect this, however.
That sounds rough, man. I'm on a pump now after years of using Lantus as my basal and N for meals. Making your basal incremental does wonders, which is what the pump takes care of. I love this fucking thing.
Camden Baker
Wet brain is caused by B1 deficiency. B1 occurs naturally in a lot of things, including pork and spinach.
Anthony Green
Holy shit! I've been on R and N for 10 fucking years now since insurance stopped after I finished school. I've been taking N every 12 hours. You'd recommend every 6?
Austin Ross
I'm not rich so I can't do keto. Check m8
Nathan Reed
>said the fat fuck as he paid $10-15 for fast food every day
Grayson Anderson
I've never used a pump. How fucking much does that shit cost? Think about Lantus that pisses me off (besides the absolute travesty of the price and the fact that Eli Lily fell in line with the cartel price fix for its competitive product) is that it doesn't actually give a flatline basal as touted. I've heard of people putting R in pumps, too. Tell me about insulin pump DRM.
Any correlation between your kidney issue and keto? Possible cause, or just had the beetus for too long? I'm 30 years in and fine so far.
Carson Hernandez
I don't live onon fast food, check m8. My diet is basically keto but with some carby element to keep cost down
Lincoln Ward
As much as a decent used car. Literally $2-3k. If you're mondo poorfag, the companies have their own low-income programs you can apply for. I never have, but I make over 200% poverty income so I highly doubt I'd get it. Don't forget that in addition to the pump, you need the tubing and the injection ports. When I was younger they let me take a pump home and try it out with just saline in it. They told me you put Humalog in the real thing, so I don't see why you couldn't do it with R. The dosing is fully adjustable.
Jeremiah Jenkins
Yes, absolutely. Requires about 3 days of intensive testing and record-taking. Walmart brand test strips are something like
Luke Cooper
The kidney problem was because I was diagnosed late into my teens, didn't take care of it until I hit adulthood. Took a long time to get things to normal, kidneys eventually got better, but left me afraid of the future.
My pump cost about 800$ because I'm Canadian and they put a plan in to allow younger people the ability to get a pump (pre-25, I got it when I was 21 or so) subsidized by the government. The pump retailed for something like 5,000$. The pump supplies would cost me something in the range of 4,000$ a year if I was not Canadian.
This guy is right; the dosing is full customization; you put whatever you want into the vial. I run on 100% novorapid.
Tyler White
>went in for DKA when I was 19 because I couldn't afford Humalog and Lantus out of pocket anymore and had nobody to turn to for advice granted, that was a $20k bill I never paid a cent of but the point is you know I've been all over the ReliOn supplies for years now I remember last time I went in to the doctor they hemmed and hawed about how they couldn't plug my meter in because it wasn't a OneTouch and I told them to fuck themselves
Isaiah Hall
Neat. See, I'm thinking a poorfag workaround is putting R in a pump and just eating strictly keto. Humalog price is almost as bullshit as Lantus. The humanitarian drug company shtick thing after gouging us forever rubs me the wrong way.
Brandon Jones
They've been out of touch with the drug and insurance pricing fucking forever. I had one once who was surprised that Lantus was prescription-only. She was like: "What? NPH is otc. What's the difference?" I'm sure she had no idea about the price of insulin without insurance either, let alone the legislative stranglehold big pharma has on congress. These are the people who don't extol the benefits of a ketogenic diet.

When my insurance ran out in my early 20's prior to the ACA, it destroyed my credit rating. I carried massive debt for a decade due to my habit of trying to stay alive. Took me fucking forever to be debt-free. My pitchfork is ready.
Brody Myers
I almost went into ketosis one time after eating a diet of chicken breasts, beans, broccoli, and the occasional small serving of milk or cheese for a week or two The lack of carbs initially made me much more focused and sharp; after a while I started feeling a little foggy headed (the onset of full blown ketosis I'd guess), then I went to the store and bought some shitty jalapeno cheese bread, baked it, and binge ate the entire thing in one sitting. I'm not sure how to explain it but my mind started swimming and I felt this wave of warmth and comfort envelope me. god damn it tasted so good
Jason Mitchell
While it may have benefits for weight loss and for regulating blood sugar in cases of extreme diabetes, the neuroprotective elements can be achieved through shorter periods through intermittent fasting and calorie restriction, and the dietary restrictions in keto (i.e., limitations in the consumption of phytonutrient-rich beans and fruits) outweigh those benefits in the long run. If for no other reason than the carb content of beans, keto is not the idea long-term diet.
Wyatt Wood
So what particular phytochemicals considered to be essential nutrients do you think cannot be eaten in more than adequate amounts in the form of low-carbohydrate vegetables? I eat spinach, kale, broccoli, cauliflower, pumpkin seeds, limes, dairy, meat, fish, dark chocolate, eggs, and fats. Two years now and healthier than ever. Tell me what is missing from my life besides cavities?
Jeremiah Rogers
I drink a warm cup of melted cheese instead :^)
Easton Morris
>So what particular phytochemicals considered to be essential nutrients do you think cannot be eaten in more than adequate amounts in the form of low-carbohydrate vegetables?
The phyochemicals found in plant foods are too numerous to be named, nor to be studied in great depth - hence why no multivitamin will ever compare to actually eating more of them.
With respect to beans, there are actually tons of studies on their consumption that point to widespread health advantages - insulin sensitivity, measures of heart disease, dementia risk, risk of cancer (particularly of the colon), and even general risk of death, among many others, are all improved by bean consumption.
What you're eating is healthier than what most of the population eats, and certainly healthier than you ate before. But that's still a pretty limited variety of foods that you listed, I eat a much larger variety of fruits and vegetables on a daily basis than that, plus lots of pulses.
Camden Martin
This, ate keto and then put rolled oats in cold milk and it was deliskus
Luke Reed

LOL you're not even in ketosis. You're just eating a balanced diet you've fooled yourself into believing is bullshit fad diet. Well done?
Camden Jackson
>cauliflower >3 net carbs >not low carb
Easton Gonzalez
There are tens of thousands of phytonutrients, only a small fraction have been studied. They're more of the proposed mechanism by which we have observed increased vegetable intake to correlate with better health outcomes.
That said, yes, some are known. Resveratrol, Lycopene, lutein, etc.
My point is more: go search pubmed for "beans"
Ryder Thompson
>Give me literally one reason you're not in ketosis right now. How do I know if I am? According to MyFitnessPal I've been getting 20-25g carbs a day, but I don't feel really any different than when I've cut calories before. Isn't ketosis supposed to feel different than otherwise?

Cameron Allen
They're not. Stop eating carbs, fatty.
Adrian Taylor
Like I said, go search pubmed. The health effects of eating whole-foods like beans or fruits cannot be reduced - at least with our current knowledge - to individual phytonutrients.
That said, the most striking example in my mind at the moment is phytic acid. The Paleo crowd poo-poos on it because it reduces the bioavailability of certain minerals, but it has striking anti-cancer and anti-carcinogenic effects (and you could always just eat more minerals to compensate).
1 cup of cooked black beans has over 25g of net carbs in it
Kevin Wright
>Breeding male >Virgin status Hhhow does that work OP?
Xavier Thompson
Old Type 1 beeter here. When I was a kid the wise old ones taught me that strip-cutting trick for the blood glucose ones, too. Back then, they changed color like the ketone urine strips.
Fun fact: just a bit before my time, diabetics could only test their blood sugar level at home with the urine strips. Best they could do was guestimate how high their blood sugar was yesterday. Doctors fought against the introduction of home testing monitors for a decade because at the time they were a little less accurate than hospital lab tests. Hurr.
Jace Baker
Then don't eat those but the green ones, it's not that hard. Wrap some bacon or prosciutto around a small handful, serve as sides to steak with a glass of red wine and I bet you get all the phytonutrients you need.

Pic is actual healthy diet but ya'll just wanna eat bacon, bunless burgers, and pork rinds lol
Eli Garcia
Actually, you have to be careful with pork rinds. They have a lot of protein. Too much and it'll pull you out of ketosis. I guess it depends on the individual, but for me, a 180-some pound man, over 60g of protein in a day ends ketosis. Oddly enough, that's where the efficacy of dietary protein in muscle-building starts to taper off. It's as though this is one of the human body's viable metabolic pathways.
Kevin Ortiz
Don't forget dairy, meat, and herbs.

Dominic Perry
I eat zucchini sometimes. It's pretty low-carb, too.
The point of listing some of the ingredients I eat above was to illustrate that a ketogenic diet can be very healthy and balanced if you want it to be.
Jeremiah Thompson
I eat cabbage and rice with salt and sugar...
Jason Sullivan
Oh, and you're not tricking your body at all. This is just one of the ways it metabolizes energy sources. You can totally get fat on keto if you eat assloads of calories. If there's a caloric deficit though, you burn body fat really fast. When you unlock keto-mode, eat a slight caloric deficit and exercise, you can lose fat really easily.
Drives me nuts when people think calorie restricted high-carb weight loss is a good idea. It fucking destroys your gallbladder and atrophies your muscles.
