I've heard that it shuts down your metabolism/causing damage to the thyroid
>>77060144Keto works unless you "cheat" and eat carbs. Carbs are addictive so many people fail and then blame keto for their own failure.
>>77060144In 99% of cases, the problem isn't that the diet doesn't work long term, but it's that the mindset of the person following the diet doesn't work long term. The sheer fact that a person had to resort to some extremist "OMG THIS ONE DIET IS THE SOLUTION" style diet, is an indicator that it was a weak minded individual, that probably isn't going to stick to a healthy lifestyle long term.
Keto diets slow the metabolism because carbs are needed to transform inactive T4 into active T3. Keto diets often lead to increased levels of reverse T3 (rT3) which slows metabolic rate.The body is stressed by low blood sugar and triggers the adrenal glands to release cortisol to stimulate gluconeogenesis (creating glucose from protein) to maintain stable blood sugar levels. In other words, keto causes high cortisol levels.Keto will lead to you feeling cold, stressed, and tired.
>>77060146>it must be those pesky carbs, and not the fact that they're eating gallons of fat and destroying their metabolism in the process!

CICO, keto, fastingtards etc have very skewed and simplistic understanding of biochemistry and always reduce it to dork broscience which is fine for exercise as it's shown receipts but for basically everything else you're just being a contrarian.Yes your body has a "switch" to reduce or increase your metabolism in consideration of a lot of factors namely height, weight, bf%, micro and macronutrient intake etc and especially overall quantitative food intake which dictates everything i mentioned before at the end of the day. And you will never realize until you're 8 weeks into whatever shitty rice and broccoli and chicken cutting "diet" that you're losing nothing and gaining water weight because you have multiple vitamin carences that supplements cant solve and that you need animal fat for literally every bodily function. Yes it's stupid to restrict your calories or increase them radically based on an arbitrary number. And when it shuts down you'll never know since calories in biochemistry are just the equivalent of "artist conceptions" for how your body deals with food. It's a black box and yiu can never truly know your BMR or even your expenditure during exercise. CICO touting is religious pseudo-science.
>>77060144Fad diets are for impressionable goyim.
>>77060144Because humans weren’t meant to do Keto. Making fat the main fuel source is a last resort in dire situations. People who do keto do it because they want an excuse to stuff their faces with more fatty food
>>77060167hahaha fat fuck
>>77060167>you need animal fat for literally every bodily function.explain lifelong vegans without hallucinating 'cheat meals' that you have no proof for
>>77060182Making fat the main fuel source is main diet for 99.9% of human evolution. Homosapians were successful because they could store and metabolize fat. Keto would kill other primates. Only the last two thousand years was agriculture capable for feeding populations.
>>77060167>CICO touting is religious pseudo-science.Starve yourselfLose weightGorge yourselfGain weightIt's that simple faggot
>>77060144Pretty obvious he eats beyond his necessary expenditure
>>77060251>Making fat the main fuel source is main diet for 99.9% of human evolution.No it wasn't.
>>77060167Idk man I've been doing 36 hour fasts 3x a week for 1.5 weeks and I'm down 8 lbsI don't restrict my diet on eating days though. Taco belllllll
>>77060144The body requires a balanced diet of macronutrients. When you shut the body off from one of the core sources of energy, you'll have medical issues that arise, not complicated
>>77060249They're extremely sick, no they wont drop dead immediately but there's not a single healthy vegan person alive. >>77060257>Faggot We dont sign our posts around these parts
>>77060389the ketolard angrily hallucinates indians when he reads scientific facts
>>77060396They're unhealthy because of nutrient lack but they sent drop because they're arteries get acked with all that keto fat
>"Real keto has never been tried!"Every single time keto has poor outcomes for someone, like clockwork. It's astonishing how mentally deranged ketolards are.The only thing keto was good for (weight control for people who are hopeless at standard dieting) has disappeared now that the GLP/GIP drugs exist.Actually I take that back. It's also good for the schizophrenic diabetic obese living in group homes who are too mentally deficient to take their meds properly. That seems to be 90% of /fit/ these days.
When you go from eating a slop diet to eating keto I'm sure your whole digestive system will quickly start to feel a whole lot better. Assuming you're cooking high quality food and not slop with Keto stamped on the package. Plus people tend to pair diets with exercise routines and generally better life habits and may attribute more of the benefits to the diet than is realistic.
