Go to YouTube Dr. Berry he knows all about it. I trust Dr. Berry .

[stevenwest]

This shows how poorly trained this dietitian is and how little knowledge she has. It has been proven that the brain runs better on ketones. It prefers them. The body doesn't need glycogen from eating carbs it can make its own

There is no perfect diet. Find what works best for you.

I think some people fat loss system is wired diferent because for some people when losing weight keto works way better than low fat I have done deficits on low fat and counting to the gram really really well not eating anything outside my 3 meals a day doing around 500 calories of cardio a day my job is in a metal fabric soo I usually move all day I am not sitting at all and charging heavy metals and on a 1800 calorie diet I was not losing weight and I am at 220 pounds a bit choby and felt lazy tired all day like my body lack energy and my weight didn't go down for a couple months O swapped to keto on 2000 calories or even more and felt strog as fuck I slept way less than with the other diet with 5 or 6 hours I was full power in the low fat I needed to sleep like 10 hours and still tired and my weight literally went down and down weak after weak now I am at 185 pounds my goal is to get to 180 I feel really good best thing ever

I was told by my doctor not to adhere to the ketogenic diet because it's risky. He said I should eat a diverse diet so I tried the *Agoge diet* and I'm starting noticing less belly fat really fast.

It is not possible to adhere to the keto diet long term and stay healthy. I tried it, and it was awful. I recommend the Agoge diet though, because it is diverse and will help you lose fat without starving yourself.

No need to punish yourself with keto. It's just a matter of calories in, calories out. Following a structured and diverse diet like the Agoge diet helps a great deal though.
