Keto is more complex than just calorie reduction. The theory is that it flips your metabolism into a different state. You are burning different fuel, ketones directly from fat stores.
I don't know if keto is solid science, but the theory cannot be represented as merely calorie reduction.
- eshvk 13y agoWhen you reduce your carbohydrate (direct source for Glucose) to something less than what can be supported by your body, it is going to rely on other sources of nutrients. I don't think my point disagreed with that. You are still going to lose weight. The only way to verify this is to do large scale controlled experiments. So until that time, we are going back and forth on anecdotes. Note: In the interests of disclosure, I would like to point that I have tried all three diets and successfully (kept that weight off for more than 3 years) lost weight.
