  • This is only recommended (rarely) in children who suffer form epilepsy/seizures. Otherwise, a balanced diet that incorporates all food groups is important. So, if you want credible nutrition advice, ask a dietitian. Everyone out there wants to be a nutrition expert just because they tried it or a friend acheived results.
    Remember, that ~50% of your cals should come from carbs, ~30% from fat and ~20% from protein, Your body needs a minimum of 130 gms of carb/day, just for adequate brain function. This is not counting the extra carbs your body needs to fuel your body w/ energy. By elminating carbs, you're not losing fat....ONLY WATER!!!!! Yes...I am a dietitian:)

    more bullshine...

    you do lost fat and like in my previous post i said my wife lost 12st on a ketodiet 12st of water???? read up PROPERLY before casting oppinion. I also myself lost around two stone.

    BODY BUILDERS USE KETO DIETS TO LOSE FAT AND REDUCE FAT PERCENTAGE AND THATS HOW THEY GET 'RIPPED' SO TO SUGGEST ITS JUST WATER IS WRONG.

    on a keto diet for the first three days your glycogen stores are depleted, and in the first week you lose between 8-12lb much of this is water BUT from then on you lose BODY FAT.

    if you take a multivitamin daily that will ensure your getting RDA... or if you follow one of the keto diets out there the sachets etc have your daily requirements in them.

    during the keto diet important to drink at least 2 ltrs of water a day.

    and yes im not a dietitian i know what im talking about

    This post if completely and utterly wrong. Carbs are not necessary in any way whatsoever. They contain no nutrients that can not be had elsewhere. I would expect a "dietitian" to know this.
