First up, we have the ketogenic diet, which aims to significantly limit carb intake. Scheller cautions. "While some folks can rapidly switch into fat-burning mode with ketosis, others may have a more difficult time with it and might require a strict form of the diet. I think my biggest concern with a ketogenic diet would be keeping balance of the good carbs, like in veggies. Since many of those who adopt a diet are limited to between 20 to 30 grams of carbs per day, they may forgo foods like fruits and vegetables to stay under their carb intake for the day." That's clearly not viable when creating a nutritious diet, not to mention one that you can stick to long-term. This trend may dissipate due to the total principal insulin. This generally only happens when the body is put into a state of extreme desperation, such as when sugar supplies are emptied due to starvation or malnutrition. Sugar or glucose then builds up in the blood causing high blood sugar levels.
