Message: <blockquote data-quote="kitedoc" data-source="post: 2016797" data-attributes="member: 468714">My understanding of it from my reading is that about 50% of protein is changed by the liver to glucose.This is how generations of Inuit, Laplanders have survived over the centuries without any carb intake.That 50% may vary a bit from person to person but most keto- and low carb diets tend to mention it.To assuage hunger I try to make sure I eat the fat on the meat, judicious amounts of full cream cheese and use cream instead of milk with my coffee, as too much extra protein may increase the carb content enough to reduce the amount of ketosis possible.  If you avoid meat , there is more saturated fat in olive oil than in the equivalent weight of pork. Other vegetable oils are processed and not considered that healthy.Best general reference I have found is dietdoctor.com.Best Wishes<img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /><img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /><img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
