    Ketogenic diets, any risks?

    There are three issues ( it's not that i think you are doing wrong or right.), - firstly, there is the distinct possibility that a change anyone makes may lead to an improvement or a worsening of health, and that this may not manifest immediately. Trying another...

    Ketogenic diets, any risks?

    my view.... just no...... there are freaks and weirdos all over the internet, we can digest raw meat and eating some of our meat raw may have advantages (vitamin content), and disadvantages (pathogens, less bio-availability) and, i guess there are a small percentage that may do well on that diet...

    Ketogenic diets, any risks?

    blood pressure fine at regular dr. visits.... I'm fine with rice, but don't eat a lot of it (have large amount and then none for a week...) So, i'm guessing the problem isn't the glycemic index, it's the glycemic load (GI x quantity) Smaller amounts of rice with more fat will buffer...

    Ketogenic diets, any risks?

    Could be, could well be. It isn't on my radar because I've always been a natural sea salt person and when I went paleo i was already eating almost zero processed foods, and only organic beards (and pastries). My salt intake didn't drop by going paleo. So, slowly take salt up and see what happens.

    Ketogenic diets, any risks?

    i was low carb paleo but relaxed it when i tried 'perfect health diet'. Now? low by SAD standards but i eat 'safe' carbs without much thought nowadays. Every now and then i go keto or VLC just to shake it up. I used to have "Orthostatic hypotension" at times but never really cared that much...

    Ketogenic diets, any risks?

    More power to ya.... Not sure why but self experimentation is fun. I am interested to know why..... Seems that a few people feel that it's got to be either keto or high carb.... personally get best results on a lowish (but way more than keto) level.
