Why do Keto Diets isn't right in the long run?🌿
Ketosis is a metabolic state that your body uses fat for fuel instead of carbs. Why are there health risks behind weight loss?
▶Hypoglycaemia
Some people suffer from low blood sugar which causes confusion, shakiness, fatigue, and sweating.
▶Ketoacidosis
Ketones are also regulated by insulin, so when low blood sugar leads to low insulin, ketone becomes too much. Ketones can poison the body(ketoacidosis).
▶Bad cholesterol
Studies suggest it increases total levels of cholesterol, including low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (bad cholesterol)---->--->High risk of cardiovascular disease
▶Chronic Illnesses
Animal-based low carb diets have poor health outcome, leads to higher risk of heart disease and cancer

How to adjust in a long run
▶Vegetable-based low carb diets
Studies show a lower rate of death from heart disease and all causes
▶Quasi-keto diet
Moderately increase carbohydrates and reduce animal protein
▶Relax
Life is already tiring, don't put too much stress on your diet! Mental health matters!
