Poll of the Day > High Fat Low Carb diets are amazing

(+) Yeah! (+)

I just hope I dont have a heart attack in 20 years, but my stomach is surprisingly flat

Been on keto for a year now

My stomach looks pretty good and I eat like trash.
I just train a lot.
Lucky me I guess?

As long as you see a doctor regularly more power to you, just make sure that theyre keeping an eye on your kidney health

What part of low-carb high-fat hurts your kidney? I thought that was a high-protein thing. I could be mistaken.

When the body is in ketosis the kidneys are filtering out all the ketones from the fat being burned which are fairly large molecules compared to what they normally deal with, between that and your blood becoming slightly more acidic they can become overburdened possibly leading to renal failure

Im not saying keto is necessarily unhealthy but it effects your body in a lot of ways, people should take it seriously

I thought carbs are only stored as glucose for like 2 days, and any excess gets turned into body fat. Or, is this more from a "I need to treat myself every now and then" kind of thing. Just curious, I'm sort of new to keto.
