I'd avoid prescribing dietary advice based on sensationalist articles. Ketogenic diets work for many people, dieters as well as diabetics, celiacs, etc. The science is sound as long as you understand the philosophy that makes it work.

The only "science" I've seen supporting long-term ketogenic diet adoption is from quacks and chiropractors and celebrity chefs. Actual medical professionals and scientists I've talked to have nothing good to say about it.

A celebrity chef promoting a diet, quack as they may be, doesn't mean it's without merit. FWIW I've both lost weight and improved my T1 diabetes control through a paleo/keto style diet I've been following for the past four years. My endocrinologist has never had anything negative to say about my diet or lifestyle.
