It's just a different approach to dieting, the idea that is you remove/ limit carbohydrates, your body will shift from glucose metabolism to fatty acid oxidation (fat burning) as a means to provide energy for the body as well as reducing insulin sensitivity leading to reduced fat storage and increased fat loss.
Ketosis is the state of having high levels of ketone bodies in your blood. Ketone bodies are by-products of fatty acid metabolism, which would be an indication that your body as switched over to fatty acid metabolism over glucose metabolism. Nutritional ketosis is the state that is achieved through following ketogenic diets. This state, according to the theory behind the carbohydrate restricting diets (mentioned above), is the ideal state for fat loss. . This is why many desire to be in nutritional ketosis though some people following these diets argue that ketosis is not the ideal goal of low carb diets but rather a side-effect of being in an ideal fat-burning state and thus do not believe ketosis is required specifically for fat loss.
Calorie counting is based on pure energy requirements in terms of energy spent vs energy consumed, disregarding the effects of different macronutrients on fat loss. Your body will remain in glucose metabolism on this diet (most likely). Your energetic requirements are calculated on your basal metabolic rate (BMR), Exercise, ext, calories being the measurement of energy here. You specifically consume less energy in your diet than your total energy requirements, leading to your body compensating by making up the energy difference by burning fatty acids in your adipose tissue, hence the fat loss. This would be probably done by a series of signalling systems and hormone regulation as a compensatory mechanism for a restricted calorie diet.
This is a big simplification but a basic theory of the biochemistry behind it. There's a pretty big divide and discussion between which theory is right and the science is still far from conclusive. I'll say though that personally I've lost weight on both diets. I've lost weight a little faster on ketogenic diets but I find it to be very difficult and physically and mentally exhausting to follow whereas calorie control is much more enjoyable but a little slower. Take all my advice with a pinch of salt but I would say long-term calorie controlled diet and healthy balanced whole foods (with leeway for some junk food, meals out just for convenience) is best just for general life enjoyment. It's a personal choice though and I wish you (and everyone else) the best with everything you decide. I hope I might be able to clear a few things up for you and answer your question.
Whoo, nice, glad I could help out.0 -
What happens if you use a little bit of glycogen? Your body makes more glycogen. And where does it pull the calories to do that from once you hit a deficit? Your fat stores. It's kind of constantly processing calories in and out of muscles and fat as you eat and move.
Your body does not and CAN NOT replenish glycogen stores from fat. It's impossible. Gluconeogenesis does NOT convert fat to glucose. It will convert amino acids from proteins (which is why VLC diets are moderate-protein) but NOT from fat.
It's very possible to maintain a state of almost continual glycogen depletion even with very little exercise on a ketogenic diet. That's a simple biochemical truth.0 -
You are right.
Dear God.
All of the amino acids present in proteins, excepting leucine and lysine, can be degraded to TCA cycle intermediates as discussed in the metabolism of amino acids. This allows the carbon skeletons of the amino acids to be converted to those in oxaloacetate and subsequently into pyruvate. The pyruvate thus formed can be utilized by the gluconeogenic pathway. When glycogen stores are depleted, in muscle during exertion and liver during fasting, catabolism of muscle proteins to amino acids contributes the major source of carbon for maintenance of blood glucose levels. Of all the amino acids utilized for gluconeogenesis, glutamine is the most important as this amino acid is critical for glucose production by the kidneys and small intestine.
There was a few weeks of my life when I had all that diagrammed out in my hallway. THAT's what that means.0 -

Why people want ketosis?
1) better glycemic control than any other dietary plan,
2) reduction in bodyfat WHILE being muscle/protein- sparing.
3) improvement in triglyceride levels and cholesterol profile compared to low-fat diets.
Anyone is free to try it if they don't have medical reasons NOT to - some use a cyclic ketogenic diet (especially popular in bodybuilding circles), some use it to 'jump start' weight loss, very few of us need it for life. Many adopt it and lose weight and get glycemic control to the point where they can re-introduce carbohydrate back into their diets quite successfully.0 -

http://www.simplyshredded.com/research-review-an-in-depth-look-into-carbing-up-on-the-cyclical-ketogenic-diet-with-lyle-mcdonald.html
the first study that you posted - pmc1373635 - is a review of other studies, and most of the studies that are cited state that more study is needed, because they cannot draw significant conclusion from the studies.
From paragraph two of "review of studies"
"Changes in lean body mass, as estimated from DEXA and urinary creatinine, were not significant over the term of treatment. Bioelectrical impedance measurements reflected a greater loss of lean body mass, but changes in total body fluid and electrolyte content, as a result of dietary ketosis, may complicate these measurements."
so I am still not sold that Keto is superior to any other method with respect to fat loss or muscle preservation ...0 -

When not ketogenic, technically every diet that involves a caloric deficit is, by nature, catabolic - meaning it will make you lose muscle. This is a fact. There are several reasons - anabolic hormones are reduced, any aerobic exercise in a deficit will burn a little fat, but WILL have a catabolic effect ...
The issue is when NOT keto-adapted, the body and brain needs glucose for fuel as it's preferred source. Thus gluconeogenesis causes us to convert protein into glucose. If we're at a deficit - the body still needs it's glucose ... if it doesn't get enough from carbs/protein (which it won't, because you're on a deficit) it catabolizes lean tissue. That's a fact.
Ketosis is different because when keto-adapted the brain prefers ketones over glucose, and the body utilizes fatty-acid beta-oxidization for cellular respiration. As such the body doesn't have to break down protein for energy, instead utilizing fat reserves.
You may not believe it, but to say that ignores the science and basic biochemistry - and you've shown no evidence to suggest it's otherwise, except your opinion, have you?0 -

you are the one making the claim, so the burden is on you to prove your point.
The study you posted was not conclusive, and was just a review of other studies that, again, were inconclusive.
So no, I do not believe that keto is superior to any other form of fat burning. Keto is just a method to create a calorie deficit, just like counting calories, low carb, IF, etc….0 -
you may want to revive the following study.
http://www.biomedcentral.com/content/pdf/1743-7075-7-17.pdf
They found that LBM did not change between those on ketogenic diet and those that were on regular diet; both groups worked out twice a week.
conclusion:
although this study was not designed to fully elucidate the mechanisms behind the observed body composition changes, the study has shown that resistance exercise performed twice weekly in overweight women on a low carbohydrate ketogenic may reduce body fat without significantly changing LBM, while resistance exercise on a regular diet may increase LBM in without significantly affecting fat mass. Fasting blood lipids do not seem to be negatively influenced by the combination of a low carbohydrate diet and resistance exercise.0 -

I've at least posted science and research papers. You've posted - your opinion. I'm assuming you've also never heard and don't believe in a "protein-sparing" modified fast? Which is basically a low-calorie ketogenic diet. It also works, and is protein-sparing. It's been known to be effective at weight-loss AND protein-sparing since the early 70's.
Google "ketogenic diet muscle-sparing" and find anything that disproves it. You'll only find evidence - both scientific and anecdotal that back it up. You'll find NOTHING scientific that discounts the fact.
The biochemistry alone speaks for itself. If you won't take the time to make any effort into educating yourself on the protein-sparing nature of ketosis ... well, I can't convince you of ANYTHING if you are determined to remain ignorant on the subject, can I?
Here's a few more sources/articles, etc. if you change your mind:

...conclusion:
"Resistance exercise in combination with a ketogenic diet may reduce body fat without significantly changing LBM"
And, if you look further at the study you'll see the ketogenic group was eating only 1438 calories per day vs. 1684 for the non-keto group.
As such, the keto-dieters lost FAT and maintained muscle. The non-keto dieters gained small amounts of lean mass, but stayed just as fat. Which would most people joining MFP prefer?0 -
Your diet is also protein sparing if you include sufficient carbohydrates, if you wanted to eat that way instead of very low carb to induce ketosis.0

you just said previously that Keto is superior to maintaining muscle and losing fat ….this study shows that is not the case …My argument is simply that whatever method you use to create a deficit is going to result in fat loss and no method is superior to the other.
ETA - correction ..you said it preserves lean muscle…all I am saying is that anyone that adhere to macros, eats in a deficit, and gets moderate exercise will have similar results…keto is not superior to the those methods, and vice versa….0 -
Your diet is also protein sparing if you include sufficient carbohydrates, if you wanted to eat that way instead of very low carb to induce ketosis.
However, for a non-keto dieter at a caloric deficit, cellular respiration must be fueled by glucose - and it's generally going to include lean tissue - since the dieter is not keto-adapted.
This is one of the reasons a CKD (cyclic ketogenic diet) is getting very popular in bodybuilding circles - you get the best of both worlds. Ketogenic muscle-sparing fat-loss plus the energy to maintain intense workouts. http://www.simplyshredded.com/research-review-an-in-depth-look-into-carbing-up-on-the-cyclical-ketogenic-diet-with-lyle-mcdonald.html
I don't care what ANY ketogenic dieter says - very high intensity exercise MUST incorporate a certain amount of dietary CHO to sustain it. Anaerobic exercise for more than a few moments is just not normally fueled-well by a keto-adapted individual. Aerobic is fueled very well, but NOT anaerobic.0 -

No offense, but you seem confused.ETA - correction ..you said it preserves lean muscle…all I am saying is that anyone that adhere to macros, eats in a deficit, and gets moderate exercise will have similar results…keto is not superior to the those methods, and vice versa….
Quick edit - I'm not trying to be a jerk, and I'm not one of those 'keto is best for everyone, woop!' zealots ... keto has it's place and it's not for everyone, but it's a scientific fact it's protein-sparing.0 -
Heres my 10 cents..
I love Keto and it works for me. No other way has helped me like this before. Everyone is different, you have to trial everything to see what works for you.
I personally eat very high protein, low carb, moderate fat. It seems to work for me I also drink about 3-4 litres a day and if the mood takes me, I'll go for a walk every now and then. I dont exercise because its not something I enjoy so I've found a way of eating that helps me loose weight I do have quite a physical job so I guess that will help!0 -

I'd rather listen to someone who's still overweight and losing than an idiot that posts things with no basis in reality like:Ketogenic diet is not about cutting on calories.... you gonna loose weight even by eating more calories then your bmr+actv requires.keto diet = about 10-15g carbs a day MAX
You further state this kind of brilliance:Again, the real Keto diet is pretty much zero Carbs. You are left with eating:
-Eggs
-Meat
-Fish
-Cheddar CheeseIt doesnt work because you eat less, it works because your Body, specially your brain needs Carbohydrates to function properly.In short, your body is gonna start burning fat super SUPER fast because there are no Carbs to burn.
Of course, it shouldn`t surprise me that you make a jerk comment like the above when your idea of dietary advice is:Just stop being lazy and change that and you will loose weight much faster.0 -
"As far back as the 1950s researchers learned that high-protein and especially high-fat diets promote weight loss better than high-carbohydrate diets. Researchers Alan Kekwick and Gaston Pawan found that when obese subjects were given diets that consisted of the same number of calories but differed in the amount of fat, protein, and carbohydrate, that those with the fat- or protein-rich diets lost weight while those on the carbohydrate-rich diets didn't.
In a follow-up study Kekwick and Pawan compared the weight loss of obese subjects on a high-carbohydrate diet with a high-fat diet. Subjects on a high-carbohydrate, 2000-calorie diet failed to lose weight. The same subjects on a high-fat diet not only lost weight at 2000 calories but lost weight even when calorie consumption increased to 2600! A typical example of the subjects in the study was BJ. After eight days on the high-carbohydrate, 2000-calorie diet, BJ didn't lose an ounce, but lost 9 pounds in 3 weeks on the 2600-calorie, high-fat diet."
(from http://books.google.com/books?id=rFF30fhh7SoC&pg=PA21&lpg=PA21&dq=alan+kekwick+and+gaston+pawan&source=bl&ots=gUy9LDuH5F&sig=0jZGReHew4oJ6jUSFyz9lupv6J0&hl=en&sa=X&ei=gUw4U4q7A5DMsQST4YJY&sqi=2&ved=0CCkQ6AEwAA#v=onepage&q=alan kekwick and gaston pawan&f=false)
I first read about this study in Living Low Carb by Jonny Bowden:
"In one study, they put obese subjects on a 1000-calorie diet but varied the percentages of protein, carbs, and fat. Some subjects were on a diet of 90% protein, some 90% fat, and some 90% carbs. The subjects on the 90% protein diet lost 0.6 pounds per day, the ones on the 90% fat diet lost 0.9 pounds per day, and the ones on 90% carbs actually gained a bit."0 -

I just started trying Keto a few weeks ago. My husband has been using it off and on for a couple years and he has lost roughly 50 lbs. I'm not trying to lose weight, but rather build muscle. I don't know all the details of this diet...I'm still researching/learning. Basically, when you're in ketosis, your body burns fat for energy instead of carbs. This makes the amount of fat your body retains decrease. When you eat carbs, your body burns those first and stores the fat. You still want to keep your calories under control with keto, but you will want to eat more fat as that is what you are using for energy. Like I said, I'm pretty new to it so I'm definitely not an expert. I just know it seems to be working really well for my husband. I think it's important to remember that everybody is different as as metabolism etc, so what works really well for one person may not work at all for someone else.
if you eat carbs and are in a deficit they do not get stored as fat…why does everyone think that carbs magically turn into fat..???
I would question going almost zero carb and trying to build muscles at the same time, as that sounds counter productive to me …but I am sure some have accomplished it...
Plus the often quoted idea that unless in that state, you don't burn primarily fat.
Most don't realize that you burn primarily fat until you get up to mid-aerobic level where 50% of carbs is used, and during exercise that ratio isn't going to change because of what you eat anyway.
Or the idea that after a meal, the fat is auto-stored rather than used for immediate energy use.0 -
You'll find the ones most vocal about it and have everything negative to say - have never done it properly.
It just works, that's why people continue to do it.
MFP (the loudest message board members) are against low carb diets and are quick to jump in telling you not to do it (as they struggle to lose a pound a week). And will try and scare you into changing your mind.
It's a diet, not a life style. If you want to lose up to a pound a day, I say go for it - but not on your own. But talk to your doctor, get a coach and do it properly.
If you want to change your life style you need to stop dieting, count your calories and get active.0 -
And I'd like to add, the part that I was confused about is whether the body burns carb or fat on just calorie deficit and not ketosis... you get what I mean? Just like how I always hear people say that exercising less than 30 min is useless and practically does nothing for fat burning because the body is just using up glycogen stores in the first 30 mins. But then what about the theories of 'move more' and 'any exercise is good'? Yeah that's pretty much the confusion I'm talking about.
Body keeps burning fat and carbs on calorie deficit.
Mainly fat when at rest, and increasing amount of carbs as exercise intensity goes up.
Usually about first 30 min of real exercise is slightly more carb ratio burn then what eventually it lowers to - but it is NOT total carb burn. It may be 50% fat / carbs, lowering to eventually 60% fat / 40% carbs doing the same effort.
Going in fasted or in ketosis usually means you start out at the 60/40 ratio - but you really aren't changing that ratio in any meaningful way by your diet. And you add up the difference is fat burned and it's ain't much.
What happens though is when you eat your next meal, the carbs are sent off to fill those stores in the muscle (after liver is topped off).
If you are in a deficit, there is less food to fill those stores with, so that process of elevated insulin to get those carbs to the muscles stops sooner than when not in a diet, because you are eating less.
Now you've gone back in to normal resting fat burning mode sooner than you would have eating at maintenance.
In ketosis though, there isn't much of any carbs to send off to muscles, so you are back quicker. Slowly but surely though the excess unused protein is converted to glycogen and then stored off in the muscles.
Eat too much in ketosis though and top those off, and that excess would be stored as fat too.0 -

Yes you are right you can do it both ways (equally as effective) consciously restrict carbs or consciously restrict calories.0
