[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 1934733, member: 41816"] Hmmm. That isn’t an assumption I am prepared to make. :) But setting that aside ( andnot addressing Jim in particular) there are so many factors at work, and this discussion is just devolving into polarisation and one line policy statements, which don’t reflect the reality of any of our lives. Speaking for my own health, I have very little interest in whether keto eating may, in time, prove harmful to me. My interest lies in whether it is [B][I]more[/I][/B], or [B][I]less[/I][/B] harmful than other ways of eating. Going on my current experiences, research and health, I can categorically state that I feel better on keto than when eating non-keto. Part of that is blood glucose control, part is running on ketones, part is avoiding food intolerances, part is better digestion. Oh, and reduction in inflammation. Also better concentration and stamina. I also see no ‘keto damage’ to my health or blood tests, including cholesterol. Keto would have to be very harmful indeed for me to forgo all those for returning to non-keto and losing the benefits. As a lesser of two weavils, I will take keto, with a smile. (Edited to add the weavils, cos I couldn’t resist). [/QUOTE]
