Looking for short summary of how 'keto works


(jim Chiodo) #1

I have a dr apt today. He has been resistant to my doing keto “high fat is bad, will increase cholesterol, etc”

don’t know if he is simply unaware or what. this will be my. I’m going to switch drs speech to him. since i’ve been with him 20 yrs, i want to have a conversation. what i really want is for him to do some research.

I understand the concept of keto but i;m looking for a paragraph i can communicate that he will understand, not video or lengthy explanation.

2 words should do it…“Halle Berry”.

I think this summarizes it fairly succinctly.

If he’s open to reading a reasonably short book: Gary Taubes Why We Get Fat is written with the idea of giving it to a reluctant doctor.

If he’s open to watching a movie: Why Are We Fat makes a reasonable case for eliminating sugar.
