Another thing to consider when people mention feeling better on a ketogenic diet: * Most ketogenic dieters are properly hydrated so they lose the initial water weight * Ketogenic dieters watch their electrolyte levels * A ketogenic diet removes wheat/gluten which may be causing inflammation/other irritations for some people * Most ketogenic dieters increase their intake of leafy greens/vegetables since they are great carriers for fatty dressing and butter * Lack of sugar so blood sugar levels stabilize I think it's very difficult to say whether it's ketosis, proper hydration, better electrolytes, lack of inflammatory foods, no sugar, or increase in vegetables that leads to people feeling "better" on a ketogenic diet.
