Another great premise and argument of why the low-carbohydrate, ketogenic diets should and must be higher in fat intake, moderate in protein and low in carbs is because in order for the body to be in a efficient state of fat burning insulin levels should remain low. And according to nutrition science fats is the only macronutrient that doesn't have any rising effect on insulin, while protein and carbohydrates both rise the insulin levels. Before i thought that carbohydrates was the only macronutrient that elevated insulin. But from what i read in this website, protein can rise insulin levels. So that's why we can come to the conclusion that to be in a very efficient fat burning physiological state fat intake has to be higher, protein moderate, and carbs real low.


.

that is not true

you can't gain fat if on a caloric deficit

Being in the state of Ketosis has literally ZERO to do with a high percentage of dietary fat intake. The state of ketosis will occur from body fat."

Sorry to exhume this from the grave but I read most of the first page before realizing how old it was. This was my favorite part.
