I just got an email from Kaiser with a link to Keto diet info. It was not all great but it was not negative either. The “Bottom Line” included the statement When it comes to any diet or major lifestyle change, it’s best to talk to your doctor first. They may recommend something like the keto diet — or they may not. It all depends on you, your body type, and your medical history.
It’s a pretty “soft” article but maybe they just want us who are doing keto to talk to our doctors. I told my doctor and she did not discourage me at all. The nurse also told me that statin use is entirely voluntary which took the pressure off me in my decision to not take them.
It’s not great, but at least it’s not bad.
