I've long conditionally supported Keto as a diet, but it stunts growth in children, and it causes atherosclerosis in most of the population on the diet as commonly practiced.
I see it as strictly a medical diet with the benefit of improved quality of life in some populations, not to be universally recommended.
- Anotheroneagain 3y agoIt's yet another nonsensical diet. The problem is that obesity isn't from overeating, but from the deficiemcies of the so called "heavy metals". Lead deficiency specifically causes both diabetes and schizophrenia. It may have started with arsenic, which was used in fiction as an obviously nonsensical poison, to not give people any ideas, but some people, likely from other places where its use wasn't so ubiquitous, took it seriously, and demamded its ban.

- Anotheroneagain 3y agoThat isn't how it works, the real problem is that proteins can contain multiple metals, and a sudden large dose of one can deplete the other. Molybdenum can cause copper deficiency, for example.
