Interesting fact

The keto diet and LCHF are becoming more and more popular - not least because many stars follow these feeding methods, such as Kim Kardashian, Matthew McConaughey, and Rihanna, and the tabloids willingly pick up this topic. But one can hope that studies like this will help the method to gain popularity among medical professionals. The authors of the work refer to a published analysis, the authors of which - 26 doctors and scientists - list facts that, in their opinion, are not familiar enough to practicing doctors:

  • Restricting carbohydrates - the most effective way to reduce blood sugar levels.
  • Restricting carbohydrates benefits health without weight loss.
  • The amount of consumption of both all fats and saturated fats does not correlate with the risks of cardiovascular diseases.
  • Limiting carbohydrate intake is the most effective way (with the exception of starvation) of reducing triglyceride levels and increasing high-density lipoprotein levels.
