When blood glucose is high, insulin tells cells to turn excessive carbs into triglycerides for fat storage. When blood sugar is low (during fasting) IGH1 tells the liver to make ketones, an alternative fuel the brain can use. Fat is robed from storage. The ketoacidosis situation happens under extreme cases.

[@leticiakarinytelesdeusdara2573]

Embora o termo "lipídio" inclua vários tipos de moléculas, o metabolismo lipídico geralmente se refere à degradação e síntese de gorduras. As gorduras são triglicerídeos(ésteres de glicerol e de três ácidos graxos). Podem vir da dieta, das reservas no tecido adiposo ou podem ser sintetizadas a partir do excesso de carboidratos dietéticos no fígado. As gorduras dietéticas são digeridas principalmente no intestino delgado, pela ação dos sais biliares e da lipase pancreática. Os sais biliares emulsificam as gorduras. Eles agem como um detergente, quebrando grandes glóbulos de gordura em micelas menores, tornando-os mais acessíveis à lipase. A lipase pancreática converte então os triglicerídeos em monoglicerídeos, ácidos graxos livres e glicerol. Esses produtos se movem para as células do epitélio intestinal - os enterócitos, dentro dos quais eles se re-combinam para formar triglicerídeos. Os triglicerídeos são embalados junto com o colesterol em grandes partículas de lipoproteínas chamadas quilomícrons. As lipoproteínas permitem o transporte de gorduras insolúveis em água em ambientes aquosos. Os quilomícrons deixam os enterócitos, entram nos capilares linfáticos e, por fim, passam para a corrente sanguínea, levando gorduras aos tecidos. As paredes dos capilares sanguíneos têm uma enzima de superfície chamada lipase lipoproteica. Essa enzima hidrolisa os triglicerídeos em ácidos graxos e glicerol, permitindo que eles passem pela parede capilar para os tecidos, onde são oxidados para obter energia ou reesterizados para armazenamento. As gorduras sintetizadas endogenamente no fígado são acondicionadas em outro tipo de lipoproteína, a VLDL, para serem transportadas aos tecidos, de onde os triglicerídeos são extraídos da mesma forma. Quando necessário, os estoques de gordura no tecido adiposo são mobilizados para a produção de energia, pela ação da lipase sensível aos hormônios, que responde a hormônios como a epinefrina. As vias do metabolismo lipídico estão intimamente ligadas às do metabolismo dos carboidratos. O glicerol é convertido em um intermediário da glicólise, enquanto os ácidos graxos sofrem beta-oxidação para gerar acetil-CoA. Cada rodada de beta-oxidação remove 2 carbonos da cadeia do ácido graxo, liberando um acetil-CoA, que pode então ser oxidado no ciclo do ácido cítrico. A beta-oxidação também produz várias moléculas de alta energia que são alimentadas diretamente ao sistema de transporte de elétrons. As gorduras geram mais energia por unidade de massa do que os carboidratos. Quando a acetil-CoA é produzida em excesso, ela é desviada para criar corpos cetônicos. Durante a fome de glicose, os corpos cetônicos são uma importante fonte de combustível, especialmente para o cérebro. No entanto, os corpos cetônicos são ácidos e, quando produzidos em excesso, podem sobrecarregar a capacidade de tamponamento do plasma sanguíneo, resultando em acidose metabólica, que pode levar ao coma e morte. A cetoacidose é uma complicação séria do diabetes, em que as células devem oxidar as gorduras como combustível, pois não podem utilizar a glicose. Dietas extremas que são excessivamente baixas em carboidratos e ricas em gordura também podem resultar em cetoacidose. Por outro lado, dietas ricas em carboidratos geram excesso de acetil-CoA que pode ser convertido em ácidos graxos. A síntese de ácidos graxos a partir da acetil-CoA é estimulada pelo citrato, marcador de abundância energética, e inibida pelo excesso de ácidos graxos. Os ácidos graxos podem ser convertidos em triglicerídeos, para armazenamento ou síntese de outros lipídeos, por combinação com glicerol derivado de um intermediário da glicólise.

There are none. It’s never happened. It’s for all intents and purposes, it’s impossible to induce a state of keto acidosis outside of the context of a very poorly managed type 1 diabetic. She seems to be just kind of repeating some ideology. I don’t think she has an actual understanding of metabolic process.

Wonderful explanation! One issue, though, is that an extremely low carb diet in a non-diabetic person does not cause ketoacidosis. From other sources, the level of ketone bodies required for ketoacidosis is roughly 10 times that which can be achieved from low-carb dieting. Healthy people can cut carbs to their heart’s content without worrying about turning their blood acid. I’m on an extremely low carb diet now and feel great.

[@metheiam5714]

Has anyone actually gotten ketoacidosis from ketogenic diets (aka very low to zero carbs and higher fats) or is it just people still mixing up ketosis and ketoacidosis?

Yep, there are cases of people who can't regulate insulin like those with undiagnosed T1D that have gotten ketoacidosis from doing keto. I don't think she means for healthy individuals.

Nutritional ketoacidosis is no harmful. infact when your major energy comes from fat(ketones) you feel more energetic. Only pathological acidosis is harmful in case of diabetes

[@part-timephilosopherLol]

Excellent video. Question: I was not clear on what makes the difference in excess acetyl co A going the route of becoming fatty acids and TGs vs ketones. Can anyone help?

[@fahadalmulla9504]

Glucose absorption stimulates glycolysis which generates pyruvate then acetyl-coA. Acetyl-coA has multiple purposes including feeding into the TCA cycle to further go into oxidative phosphorylation and ETC to generate ATP, and fatty acid synthesis (TAG), or form cholesterol. You need glucose to form pyruvate which also forms oxaloacetate by pyruvate carboxylase. Inadequate glucose absorption like in people with diabetes results in a decrease of oxaloacetate formation thus it is depleted and cannot form citrate anymore by combining with acetyl-coA and thus cannot enter the TCA cycle. There is an accumulation or excess acetyl-coA due to lipolysis. Acetyl-coA will then go on to form ketone bodies which can be utilized in periods of starvation especially. Lipogenesis (forming TAGS) is energetically expensive and requires ATP consumption, but since TCA cycle is rendered (due to oxaloacetate depletion) the body cannot afford to stimulate gluconeogenesis later on because it also requires high ATP. Thats why ketone bodies are produced and can be utilized by the brain and other tissues in extreme starvation. Hope that answers your question!

[@part-timephilosopherLol]

@@fahadalmulla9504 that’s a great answer thank you 😊. I’m wondering something else ... in a non diabetic that is fasting any idea why ketones might be overproduced to the point of trending to keto acidosis? Day 5 of zero calorie fasting ketone levels were 7.6

[@fahadalmulla9504]

@@part-timephilosopherLol Just to clarify, short term fasting will not cause ketoacidosis. In non-diabetics, ketoacidosis will only occur in periods of extreme starvation (weeks). During this period, there is severe hypoglycemia due to lack of glucose intake, therefore, as explained before, not enough oyruvate will be made so lack of oxaloacete, leading to disruption of the TCA cycle and accumulation of acetyl coA. In the fed state, glucose is the primary source of energy for the body and especially the brain. Since glucose is not present, the next best alternative is ketone bodies. Ketone bodies are produced by acetyl coA. Since we established that there is an accumulation of acetyl coA, then ketone bodies formation will be favored.

[@josephvettoor5780]

This doesn’t make sense in non diabetic patients. Even if they are fasting, in the absence of glucose body can generate glucose through gluconeogenesis. So this may not apply.

Hmm, so is possible that a diabetic actually exclusively relies on fat metabolism to derive energy, because cells won’t accept fast energy from glucose in the blood? Is there ever a case where fat storage stops working? Ok

[@thereligionofrationality8257]

Diabetes is caused by insulin resistance. Which is caused by too much sugar and carbohydrates in the diet. Humans are evolved to metabolise fat. There's a reason the Inuits never had diabetes and cardiovascular diseases despite having a diet consisting primarily of whale and seal blubber. Sugar and carbohydrate metabolism cause glycation and oxidation of LDL, which damages the lipoprotein. LDL is NOT bad, except when it is damaged. When that is the case it cannot be reabsorbed by the liver and turned back into VLDL. Unabsorbed damaged LDL is scavenged by macrophages that accumulate and form plaques under the intima of arteries, causing atherosclerosis. Plenty of studies now show that putting diabetics on zero sugar/low carb/moderate protein/high fat diets reverses the disease. Patients that stick to the protocol lose weight and come off their meds completely.

A Keto diet does not cause ketoacidosis! Great video!

[@SeresHotes25]

Do you mean, the author is wrong? How does body handles high amont of acidity caused by keto bodies?

[@Keestral]

@@SeresHotes25 A keto diet shouldn't cause acidosis. Basically you body should only be producing as much as it needs. It's when the levels become completely that it becomes a problem. If you have too much ketones in your blood, your body will try to reduce the excess via your urine.

[@speekosloff]

@@SeresHotes25 Yes, the author is wrong. A ketogenic diet doesn't lead to ketone production at such a rate that your body cannot use or excrete the ketones. The video was great, but the narrator's account of strongly carb restricted dieting as a noteworthy risk factor for ketoacidosis was irresponsible. Type 1 diabetics' insulin resistance creates the risk of ketoacidosis, as they'll have high glucose and their liver will spaz out generating more ketones than their body can use. This doesn't happen in normal, non-diabetic populations trying a keto diet, or if it were to it's likely because the person is an undiagnosed Type 1 diabetic (though ketoacidosis can happen in Type 2 diabetics also, where it tends to be less frequent and severe).

[@VeganLinked]

"Based on previously published case reports, there may be a trend in ketogenic diets triggering severe metabolic acidosis in certain patient populations," keto diets are rated very low. Mediterranean diets and variations of it always rank significantly higher. And those diets can be whole food plant-based vegan. There's literally no reason to consume animals or to be on a ketogenic diet unless it was prescribed by your doctor for a neurological issue for example. The easiest way to obtain and maintain the healthiest weight effortlessly is a whole food plant-based vegan diet.

She is not wrong, as she speaks for populations that cannot regulate insulin when she says that. A person with T1D that suddenly switches to keto diet might get ketoacidosis.
