I've since learned that a lot of his ideas aren't scientifically accurate. This article wholehealthsource.blogspot.com/2011/08/carbohydrate-hypothesis-of-obesity.html did a lot to change my mind. In my mind, the real reason low-carb diets work so well is because it's near impossible to overeat on just fat and protein. People on low-carb diets can eat as much as they want and still only end up with like 1500 calories. So I think that's the main reason it works for weight loss.Brendan Coburnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03952253560601734936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6290494885626185551.post-40645722306809715522012-07-12T00:32:03.623-04:002012-07-12T00:32:03.623-04:00I'm curious on how you've changed your thi...I'm curious on how you've changed your thinking about this and the last post.

I would avoid doing any long-duration intense exercise though, and probably limit glucose-demanding stuff like crossfit. But most importantly just listen to your body, if you're becoming chronically fatigued, either tone down the intensity or eat more carbs. <br /><br />Thanks for reading!Brendan Coburnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03952253560601734936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6290494885626185551.post-22984060617564875182011-06-10T13:40:21.373-04:002011-06-10T13:40:21.373-04:00do you have any advice on exercise while in ketosi...do you have any advice on exercise while in ketosis?Nesahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01552363463952582980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6290494885626185551.post-52423826043776118642011-05-26T09:56:48.824-04:002011-05-26T09:56:48.824-04:00Burn, of all the articles, this one has been by fa...Burn, of all the articles, this one has been by far the most enlightening. This is the key to what most folks are missing - the biochemistry. You lay out the physiological processes beautifully and most importantly, in lay mans terms.
