Nutritionfacts is a pseudoscience site.
The paleo diet is definitely, absolutely bullshit, but ketogenic diets have real use and purpose, if you can adhere to a strict ketogenic diet, and can do so without becoming malnourished (both of which are damn near impossible for most people). If you can get your body into a state of ketosis--not ketoacidosis, which is a potentially fatal condition most often associated with diabetes--then you burn off body fat much, much more quickly when you're on a calorie-deficient diet, because your body is already using fats as a primary source for energy rather than carbohydrates. The downside is that you'll feel like absolute dogshit for a few days until you adjust, since glucose is the preferred fuel for cellular respiration.
thank you
Your defense of keto boils down to: people need to lose weight fast or they will give up, so its useful? Its an incredibly damaging diet if you were to stay on it for life.
And if you are only meant to use it to lose weight, what exactly do people transition to when done?
