Doesn't benefits of a low-card diet far outweights whatever benefits it offer?

Hi, Keto is just very low carb and intermittent fasting is just a restricted eating window each day, the benefits of IF are many and varied (in my opinion)

I actually IF.

Not for weight management reasons. But as a singer in 2 bands.?
Food digestion restricts the diaphragm with breath control. I like “singing for my supper.”

Normally after I’ve done a gig then I relax & eat. So this equates to a 12 or 14 hour IF.

I do normally keep the carbs low. But can successfully hit a pizza with a bolus up front & the basal after a gig being late by 5 hours?
I’ve spoken with other T1 musos who get a liver dump during gigs.stage fright.)
For me. 99.9% I can cruise at 5mmol even when the basal (Lantus) has meant to tailed off hours back..
Since the advent of CGM or flash monitors backed up by a meter. Confirming what works for me..
That’s how it rolls.. T1 for 47 years.

No idea regarding the “darkmagic of rock & roll”
I could try this on a standard day job work night & it turns to the proverbial “struggle” with the carbs…

Don’t try this at home. Or if you happen to be in a band.
