The Metabolic Pathways behind the Ketogenic Diet


Details
This is an relatively informal meetup where we will explore all aspects of ketogenic diets and low-carbohydrate regimens in general. Some of the questions we'll explore are:
-
What is the ketogenic diet and how does it differ from other diets?
-
What's the science behind it?
-
Are there any health benefits?
-
Are there any risks or dangers? If so, how do we avoid them?
-
What kind of foods should I eat or avoid?
-
Is it possible or even advisable to go ketogenic for life?
-
Is the ketogenic diet applicable (or even possible) for vegans or vegetarians?
Whether you are beginner or a veteran, you will get some valuable insights about the ketogenic diet, energy metabolism and nutrition in general.
If you have specific goals for weight loss, health and wellness or just trying to decide if the ketogenic diet is right for you, this will get you on the right path.
If you want to share your successes and failures with your own ketogenic diet or health issues you've encountered, this is a good opportunity tell your story and get some constructive feedback.
