    LOL. This couldn’t be further from what a Keto diet is trying to do. Quindraco nailed it. The Keto diet is meant kick your body into cannabilising its own fat stores for energy rather than use the energy from the food you’re eating.

    If you want to see it in action, watch the series The Human Body EP 1. They chronicle someone who swam the English Channel. It took 14h and he lost about 20 lbs. doing it. The show speaks about the process, but basically, that is Keto.

      Yes, yes. We know what the keto diet is pretending to do, but that’s all it’s doing: Pretending.
