[QUOTE="HSSS, post: 2644926, member: 480869"] Fat burning effectively actually takes longer ( a few weeks) than reaching just ketosis. The longer you’ve been in ketosis the quicker you can switch back and forth between glucose and fat burning. I guess it’s training your body to be efficiently dual fuel rather than just forcing it into it. Also the 20g thing is a guaranteed level rather than absolute. Many people reach ketosis up to 50g a day, a few even a bit higher especially if they are very active. Other wise you give great advice about the stepping it down and the electrolytes if diet isn’t providing enough. I personally didn’t need them but some do, especially in the early weeks whilst you might be adjusting. It’s rarely a long term issue though. [/QUOTE]
