Keto diet, any opinion or advice?

SW-User

On one hand low carbs is the way to lose weight, but on the other too low - ie ketosis for prolonged periods can interfere with your thyroid in that it inhibits the conversion of T4 to T3 hormone and thyroid problems can present a whole range of weird symptoms. I dropped my daily carb intake down to about 100g maybe 80g. I personally wouldn't go below 50g for the reason i mentioned but others may have a differing view on this.

@SW-User Thanks. I was unsure about the carb intake.

@Disturbed12 I lost all the weight i needed from 80g - 100g per day. I also had advice from my local gym's fitness trainer. Professional advice is definitely the way to go with something like this.

Been following it for 8 months now I think. I like it. I also intermittent fast along with it. If you want some great advice on it look up Dr Eric Berg on YouTube.

@Disturbed12 you're welcome! If you have any questions, I will try to help if I know.

Also, keto is high fat (healthy fats, medium protein and low carbs. But green leafy veggies you can do all day long).

It's a good option for many people, but most advocates of it spread a lot of misinformation. Check out ketogains, they follow research the best out of any of them.
