It seems like medical science contradict itself all the time. I tend to think Keto is dangerous and that science has proven this.
As for those who better their plight caused by epilepsy, I tend to think Cannabis would be a better option.

Actually science has disproved fat as being dangerous. The majority of science saying fat is bad for you is often looking at a high fat/high carb diet rather than a high fat/low carb diet. A high fat diet/high carb diet can be horrible for your health. However, keto is not only safe but extremely beneficial for many different conditions!
It is crucial to read the studies to understand what is going on. A high fat diet is not a ketogenic diet. I looked at the 3 of the studies you picked and none of them listed the diet, they just said they were fed high fat. High fat in the presence of high carb will promote much of what you are talking about such as inflammation. Research often mistakes fat as being the culprit of negative outcomes in these high fat/high carb studies.
Additionally, duration of study is key. True adaptation to a ketogenic diet takes time so studies looking at markers following 5 days of a high fat diet will not be a good indication. Check out all ketogenic studies that are 4 weeks or longer and are actually ketogenic and not just low carb and you will see much different results! If you would like me to point you in the direction of more relevant research please let me know!
Have you watched the video I posted?
What a joke.. i've been doing low carb high fat for 4 years now.. based on what you said, i'm lucky to be alive.
But the reality is that i'm free of type 2 diabetes, 100lbs lighter, and much happier, and actually physically active.. much better off from when i was a high carb vegan!
I think a high-carb diet is what's dangerous and IMO that sort of diet which is the common Western diet nowadays and for the past several decades, has no doubt contributed to many digestive illnesses that we see at epidemic levels in multiple countries today. I also think within a few years, the scientific community will catch up , The truth is already starting to come to light :) thanks for taking the time to read my article, all of the relevant sources and consider it though 👍😊
"High"-carb diet is what our most closest relative the chimp are on. It's what we evolved on for the vast majority of our existence on this planet.
It's what shaped the bio-chemistry of our ancestors for millions of years.
Chimps are hunters of raw meat.... and eat each other when they have wars with each other...
Yup. The vast majority of their calories are from vegan sources.
One of the things that often gets overlooked, is that unless you're eating organic, the quality of carbs are often contaminated with chemicals and mixed with fillers and additives which effects the nutrients you derive from eating, as well as how your body breaks food down. For example, I'm really careful about the baked goods I get while eating out in the US, because they often make me brain fogged and sluggish feeling after eating them. But when I was on vacation on St. Marteen, an island in the Caribbean, I didn't have the same problems when eating out at restaurants because they never allowed Monsato on the island.
That being said, I agree that it's better to keep a low carb diet to stay healthier overall. One of the things that I found surprising while doing keto, was the huge quantities of food I was able to consume while still losing weight and gaining muscle. This really brought home the point that quality and the source of my foods is really impactful on my moods and physical well-being.
Get out of here, vegan filth!
