Please be careful when your husband reduces the amount of sodium in his diet. While it is the goal per the doc that talked to you in the Emergency Department, there is such a thing as consuming too little of it as well. Absence or low amounts of sodium in the body results in hyponatremia which can cause one to syncope,…

In my case, Keto lifestyle has been very beneficial. Some background: I'm an endurance athlete and suffer from hypoglycemia. Before I started Keto I was under the traditional american diet (lots of carbs, avoidance of fat). Because I was following the American dietary guidelines, I've suffered from at least one glycemic…

Statistical errors here... Sample population is really really small. You cannot generalize that statistic to be true unless the population is representative of the Americans - in which case it isn't. Also, I've been doing keto for three years now. I'm still 5'9 and 150lbs. I would hardly call myself "delusional."
