What I think of the Keto Diet
On a personal level, I believe in the power of the ketogenic lifestyle. However, I have not tried it so far, since I was able to reach my goals without going this route. In addition, I love carbs and they help me maintain my high energy at the gym and to sustain my daily life activities.
Nonetheless, I would definitely recommend you try it if you wish to. I still believe in a sustainable approach over a lifetime is better. However, trying it for a couple of months will not do any harm, unless you don't live alone and your mother/spouse/partner would be cooking differently for you and the household and this would cause the food maker an extra headache. Trying this approach can be optimal when you are handling your nutrition on your own.
I would recommend that people who are suffering from insulin sensitivity or diabetes give this approach a trial since carbs cause insulin spikes and eliminating carbohydrates is helpful in such cases. Remember, whether you adopt a temporary diet or a permanent lifestyle depends on you and only you. And you need to keep your micronutrients in check if you choose to go on Keto to avoid any kind of deficiencies. Happy dieting :)
