    Yes they can. This is called metabolic flexibility. Again though Ketone use is the back up rather than primary fuel. You didn't answer my question as to why this is.

    The last qualification I did was with https://www.mac-nutritionuni.com/ I've also completed courses with the Association for Nutrition and I'm insured. I'm not particularly focused on any one field of nutrition, most of my clients are fat loss focused, although I've also worked with athletes...

    Again, please demonstrate on this thread or anywhere on the forum where I've said LC diets don't work.

    Please cite where I've said low carb dets don't work? All I've said is that you're confused about why they do. This thread is about the efficacy of LC or calorie-controlled diets over time.

    This isn't evidence of anything, as convenient as it sounds. Mammals switch to ketone utilisation for foetuses to maximise the chance of survival, preserving glucose for growth. Growing is energy-intensive. From: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3884390 Ask yourself this, if ketones are...

    So how do you explain keto not working for me? Is that because the science is wrong or because I failed? Look, I get that people don't like their preferred dietary choice challenged, people are tribal about it. For every evangelical vegan there's an evangelical carnivore, for every person who...

    Sounds pretty closed-minded if you won't simply look something up. Anyway, you're correct, his website has since expired, but press around the experiment and his youtube channel remain, the latter documenting the whole process day by day...

    Not really. Science informs practice. If it doesn't work for individual it's down to individual application and adherence. For example keto diets work well for many. For me personally I couldn't stick to one. Does that mean they don't work? No, just means for me it wasn't the right choice.

    Head, brick wall. CICO is what causes weight gain or loss.

    I am in general against anecdotes yes, you all here seem to live by "personal experience" though. As I said. He ate 80% of his calories daily from ice cream. It's all there if you go look for it with a website dedicated to it.

    Please qualify the last sentence. Minuscule by what definition?

    They work perfectly here. Just search for "abs and icecream" alternatively. His results after eating 80% of his calories from ice cream for 100 days. Blood results (Before / After): [emoji830]Triglycerides (fat in your blood): 72 / 47 [emoji652] [emoji830]HDL (Good Cholesterol): 52 / 69...

    Again the irony here is strong. You're proving the point I was making. I'm not ruling out individual differences to dietary responses, I prescribe low carb diets sometimess myself. But if individual differences are in important why does everyone here rule out any other diet than LC or LCHF for...

    Not really no. Changes in ketone levels show that switching of fuel utilisation happens much faster than most keto advocates claim. The fact that levels don't peak for some weeks is not evidence that you need that long to "adapt" either. It also shows how low on the body's hierarchy ketones...

    Is this a seriois post or satire? An opinion piece from a tech blogger with cherry picked links? Strong.

    And here's a pretty strong point to consider. The most effective diet ever studied in treatment of T2D, isn’t even low in carbs - at least not as a percentage of its calories. It’s the very-low-calorie diet used by Dr. Roy Taylor at Newcastle University in the U.K. Volunteers with type 2...

    The irony here is strong. Those trials are in those with diabetes. So how do they not apply to you?
