[QUOTE="lucylocket61, post: 2307359, member: 41885"] my DN (and others) say that I need 130g of dietary carb to achieve sufficient good brain function. If i am not doing keto, are they right that I need 130g a day, hence that being the level considered to be the low carb lowest safe threshold? My question is basically - in ketosis people dont need carbs, as they have sufficient glucose to feed my brain. What about those of us not in ketosis? How many carbs do we need for efficient brain function? I dont think this is being addressed. I understand those doing keto can function brain-wise. Is there evidence for those us of on, for example, 60g of carbs a day, not producing ketones, are having enough glucose produced for our brains? I hope this question is clear enough. Its difficult for me to explain. [/QUOTE]
