Should You Try a High Fat Diet?
His fifth tip, "when we start out, we wanna start out with a high fat diet," he says. "But then as you transition and your appetite is a lot less, you know, several weeks into this, then we'll start reducing the fat. This way we can tap into more of the ketones from our own body fat versus the fat that comes from our diet."
RDN Says: If you follow a keto diet, the nature of that diet is high in fat. When you lower the fat several weeks in, what are you going to add back in? Carbs? Protein? This is very vague and misleading advice. And again, I don't think you need to get into ketosis or eat a predominantly high fat diet."
