Thank you Doctor 🙏💯 I'm not a physician but I'm a diabetes management strategist. I have had lots of folks bring up this research to bash keto. I've tried to explain to them that we cannot rely on these studies because they are poorly done. Thank you for putting this in a concise, easy to understand manner. I will be sharing with my support group of 11K patients in the US 👌💯🙏

As a doctor you know that long term RCTs are not possible and these kinds of epidemiological studies have some value. So how about presenting some long term studies that low fat diets are beneficial for mortality and heart health?

Showing that Metabolic Mind made a great choice in hiring a knowledgeable cardiologist like Dr Scher as its spokesman. The big critique of ketogenic diets is that it increases the LDL in a portion of the patients that try it (particularly lean people), so having a cardiologist that has a deep understanding of CVD and the current literature is extremely important. And thank you to Dr Scher for dedicating so many years to curing disease through very low carb diets. He could have been making a lot of money working as a cardiologist but he chose this road

So if I am in a household were I can go "low carb" (~100-150g/day) but not ACTUAL low carb/keto, I should simply stay high carb low fat for as long as I can't commit to keto? I've been learning a lot about keto and have lowered my carb intake since, but have not commited due to being in a household that isn't open to the idea. Since I am essensialy on a higher fat diet but never in ketosis, should I simply stop, go back to eating bread without the butter until I am in a place I can try keto for real? Energy levels are more stable than when I had roughly 50% of kcals from carbs. Now I hover between 25-40%. Not in a caloric surplus, my weight has been stable.

@metabolicmind 5 ай бұрын

That's a great question. It makes sense that if someone is eating a whole foods diet and avoiding processed and refined carbs and sugars, then a lower carb diet will still provide potential benefits. But as always, the key is for each individual to follow their health progress and decide individually if their diet benefits their health goals.

I have been losing muscle mass, strength and libido on a low carbs diet, even when pulling off daily 2-3 grams proteins per kilo body weight. Not sure if I should continue low carbs, or maybe go high fat soon, but my body composition looks really good. Not sure if my diet is 100% low carbs, I get berries, a carrot and lots of olive oil and nuts on a daily basis, so probably overall 100-120 grams of carbs per day.

I cannot do keto. Even with lots more water and electrolytes I get heart dysrhythmias. Cardiologist who is into low carb told me to stop. Now, I just eat reduced carb but not enough to go into ketosis. Best I can do and I get good results but obviously not what I was looking for.

So it's 3 epidemiological studies all showing low carb intake is related to mortality and heart disease in a not desirable way. The criticism is the same for all studies of these kinds, they are not controlled, not randomized studies. If they favor your point of view these kinds of studies are used as evidence for, and if against they are proclaimed invalid. Let's see the studies showing low carb diets long term are beneficial for heart health and mortality.

Why did the journal publish the study? It obviously adds absolutely nothing to this body of knowledge- almost unethical. Critical appraisal needs to be taught in high school due to expanse of social media ‘scientists’.
