I have made a few attempts at eating more ketogenic style in the past year, reading some things that seemed promising. Anecdotally, I found it inordinately difficult to stay that low-carb for very long; it seemed especially difficult to stay low-carb and also restrict calories (aiming for some weight loss on this end); I seemed to feel physically less healthy eating that way than I do favoring more of a vegetable / beans / lean-meats diet. So I have, at least for now, given up on that. As far as evidence... really not sure what to say. For anything I found supporting ketogenic eating, I could find something else that did not support it. So many conflicting "nutritional science" reports that I'm really not sure who to believe, and thus, for me personally, I'm more inclined to go with whatever reports seem to best mesh with my anecdotal personal results. I do notice that pretty much every credible-sounding diet plan advocates for less processed sugar and less heavily processed grains, so that much should be easy.
