Not wrong in my personal case - I've lost those 20+ kilograms with no problem to report. Again, it was not a calorie restriction diet - it was a carb restriction diet.

I'm unfortunately expecting this getting worse with massive adoption of the drug but we can start with "Risk of Suicidal Thoughts and thoughts of self-harm with medicines known as GLP-1 receptor agonists,1 including Ozempic (semag

Every drug has long term side effects but people are being sold GLP1 as a miracle weight lost pill when the focus should be on reducing all the toxic junk food that is causing the weight gain in the first place. And yes, many research progr

In contrast with the huge amount of money that the pharma industry spends in marketing GLP1 drugs to people not caring about their long term effects but only on profit. I wish there were more Casey and Calley Means in this world instead of

That’s not true - the ketogenic diet is not a calorie restriction diet. It was invented early last century by a medical doctor to simulate fasting and treat epilepsy in children. Low calorie diet lead to yo-yo dieting which is not the case

Not if you start from an extremely obese starting point like I did. I don’t recommend this rate to people with normal weight.

I know this going to be blasfemy but the real problem here is carb addiction and we should be treating the root cause not the symptoms with a drug with unpredictable long term consequences.

Yes I actually used ChatGPT to calculate what would be the required daily amount of calories to achieve my target weight in 6 months - the big difference is I always feel satiated and that the body being in ketosis ensures I’m not accumulat

If your primary macro consumption is fat, your body will enter a state of ketosis burning fat instead of glucose. As long as your calorie intake of fat is less than your basal metabolism corrected by some factor, you will lose weight and fe

I’m fat, I’ve been cooking my own keto meals for more than two months, I’ve consistently been in ketosis and yesterday was my 50th birthday :)

I’m 1.78m, 50 years old, my initial weight 2 month ago before I started the keto diet was 154kg and two months later I’m almost 130kg. Eating the same amount of calories as before.

Implementing a ketogenic diet is not the same as a caloric restriction diet - it’s an inversion of the macronutrient pyramid - heavy on fat, moderate on protein and low on carbs. Even if you consume the same calories as in a traditional die

I would listen to what his guests on this particular podcast have to say before jumping into conclusions just because the interviewer is Joe Rogan. I have no particular opinion on him - I’m just interested in what the interviewees in this s

Check the https://metabolicmind.org site then - you’ll find plenty of research based evidence on the usage of the ketogenic diet as a metabolic therapy.

It really helps if you use some LLM tool like ChatGPT or Claude to generate the keto recipes (sometimes with the ingredients you have available). If you stick to cooking keto recipes for a few weeks you end up internalizing the recipe patte

I would suggest to use an LLM chat to generate ketogenic recipes - works well for me.
