I have a friend who is but he's a personal trainer so it makes more sense. but he has to put so much focus on his diet to stay in keto it just looks exhausting. It was very sustainable imo, it teaches your body to not live off glucose energy and regulated insulin levels and blood sugar, and thus your cravings and mood swings go away. You basically live off your own stored body fat, and you can go for long periods of time without eating and feel great with no negative drawbacks. I did a 48 hour fast and never got any headaches or stuff. However, you cannot eat certain foods (because of the higher insulin trigger response) and you have to supplement certain things like electrolytes and bile salts, because you're eating a lot more fat than normal, and the liver has to work hard to detox and regulate everything. High levels of uric acid can also build up in the kidneys and form stones, so it's recommended to take lemon juice occasionally. And if you want things like soda or bread or sweets, you have to learn about which ingredients are keto-friendly and either buy the products, or make it yourself. Part of the fun for me was learning to make keto desserts, like edible brownie batter and chocolate peanut butter cups, stuff that satisfies your sweet tooth but is still very healthy. --- "Your flesh is a relic, a mere vessel.
