Jonty, you are not well informed, and the author of the original article is also poorly informed.

Healthy fats do not cause health problems. Healthy fats are olive oil, coconut oil, beef tallow, grass fed butter, bacon fat, chicken fat, etc.

Seed and vegetable oils are highly inflammatory, and will harm your health over time. These are not part of a well-balanced keto diet.

Combining unhealthy manufactured oils with carbs can and do create disease. If one is unwilling to keep carbs low ALL THE TIME, they shouldn’t blame th keto diet for any consequent health issues.

Do more research before you opine on a subject you clearly do not understand. It is easily available for reputable universities, highly respected pphysicians, and ample actual clinical trials.

Dr. Eric Westman, Dr. Jason Fung, Dr. Stephen Phinney, and many more. Goto you tube, and look these wonderful men up, also look up all the low carb conferences.

Then come back and apologize for speaking nonsense.

My knowledge comes from having been involved in bodybuilding,although I never did steroids.

In general, your diet should be 20-25% protein, 20-25% fat and 50-60% carbohydrates. If you need to cut calories, it should always come from the
Carbohydrates. Unused carbohydrates is turned into blood sugar. Excess blood sugar gets stored as fat once it’s processed. The problem of carbohydrates comes from processed carbs, because it provides a sudden floor of glucose, that cannot be used by the body and will invariably be stored as fat.

Is that better? :)
