A Professor of Dietetics answers questions about the experimental ketogenic diet and its dangers to diabetics. This report is from 2019.
Would you study in that university dietetics degree?
Warning: a reminder that the mainstream is still inexorably flowing out there.
She says that Keto isnāt for life and that it massively increases the risk of colon/bowel cancer. She also claims that it reduces athletic performance.
She hasnāt read the reports properly.
But she is a Professor of Nutrition and Dietetics. 
Youāre right David. Most of the people in this forum are more up to date with dietary knowledge.
They are a laughable āprofessionā. Desperately covering up for bad science and bad adviceā¦
This is my local university. I have a degree from themā¦in a health related field. Not Dietetics.
So behind the times and shows a complete lack of knowledge of current scientific findings. Embarrassing that someone who should be continually striving to be at the top of their field and at least āacrossā recent studies should be so completely stuck on old (incorrect!) rhetoric.
Not having read the article, I hypothesize sheās alluding to the idea that LCHF people donāt get as much fiber as people on the SAD. Fiber is very important for cleansing the bowelsā¦ when we eat processed foods, but its importance decreases when we eat real food.
She forgot to say āitās not sustainableā.
They, presenter and professor, did mention that the ketogenic diet did derange things so that it was hard to transition back to normal eating.
I read not further than:
āhigh fat, high proteinā
that told me she had no idea what she was talking about.
I think the next part of the sentence was also a clue that we were in for a time travel (into the past) experience.
The travesty is that this is a teacher at a university, or at least a senior person overseeing lecturers in that course. The students trust their teachers. But one would hope a good uni course also teaches critical thinking and research.
Media reports are a constant reminder that the main stream is out there and very slow to change its course. This information irrigates health care services, government public policy, and misinformation based arguments among friends, family and peers.

I will maintain what would take 2 men to complete a highly complex physical task would only take 1 man; who would have more energy, strength, endurance, coordination, stamina and more speed (by 15 min); the longer they remain keto?
The problem is, no research[1] on enough actual 6 month or 27 week fat adapted peeps?
Colon/bowel cancer? High-Amylose Maize Resistant Starch (HAM-RS2); the missing carb of the salivary gland that feeds the gut microbiome, is the missing key to the puzzle; when looking at all the research on burning ketones/BHB for energy during physical exertion? HAM-RS2 is what early man once subsisted on in nature; it is part of our organic nature?

Yes, we call that eating off plan and the reason itās hard to transition back is because we know how bad that food makes us feel now that we transitioned away from it.
