I read he eats the ketogenic diet, just wondering if he carbs up before games and practice. Seems like that would be impossible to go back and forth. If he’s in strong ketosis while playing, that’s really cool!
Is LeBron James in Ketosis while playing?

I had read he does paleo, but not ketosis. It is possible, but seems like a big risk to try to get fully keto adapted during the offseason to perform during the season.

"I had no sugar, no dairy, no carbs,” LeBron told Sports Illustrated. “All I ate was meat, fish, veggies and fruit. That’s it. For 67 straight days.” James said his diet consisted entirely of meat, fish, vegetables and low-sugar fruit.
He said “no carbs” but that he also ate “low-sugar fruit”, so he wasn’t quite no carb.
