A member asked:
I find the evidence against the diet-heart hypothesis compelling & am looking for doctor who thinks that keto is best option for controlling diabetes?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Heart Healthy B.S.: I agree, the notion that eating too much saturated fats raises bad cholesterol and causes cardiovascular disease is a weak argument. If by "keto" you mean a ketogenic diet in order lose fat and get blood sugars, yes I agree and do this in my practice. We use the Ideal Protein diet very successfully.
