[QUOTE="midlifealpha, post: 81340, member: 3266"] The reddit site recommends 20g or less, lots of good discussion there. This guy's site (Dr. Peter Attia) is pretty good, as he attempts to attack this from the medical/science side. I have not kept up with any recent videos or blogs. [URL]http://eatingacademy.com/[/URL] I don't remember which video but I think he wanted people to start very low. The reason is the brain will want to take the path of least resistance for it's energy. If a person is eating too many carbs to enter into Ketosis, they are stuck in the pattern that leads people to think they are in a fog. So if your number that kicks you out of Ketosis is... 60g (example only) and you have a 65 gram carb day let's assume you go out of Ketosis. Now you only have 65g of carbs for not just the brain but the entire body to get it's energy from. This is similar to an NBA team that's always a 7-8 seed playoff time. They are nowhere close to where they need to be (Champions) and won't get a high enough draft pick to alter their situation. Basically that is what the Low-Carb Fog is. For anyone NOT in Ketosis the body needs probably 3X the 65G of carbs to fuel the daily activity. So you don't lose weight at the same rate and you are in a fog... Double-Whammy.... So my only advice is if someone is going to do, go all-in. Don't piss around. [/QUOTE]
