Rules for Posting Guides on Our Community

1. Defining a Guide Guides are comprehensive reference materials, how-tos, or comparison tables. A guide must be well-organized both in content and layout. Information should be easily accessible without unnecessary navigation. Guides can include flowcharts, step-by-step instructions, or visual references that compare different elements side by side.

2. Infographic Guidelines Infographics are permitted if they are educational and informative. They should aim to convey complex information visually and clearly. However, infographics that primarily serve as visual essays without structured guidance will be subject to removal.

3. Grey Area Moderators may use discretion when deciding to remove posts. If in doubt, message us or use downvotes for content you find inappropriate.

4. Source Attribution If you know the original source of a guide, share it in the comments to credit the creators.

5. Diverse Content To keep our community engaging, avoid saturating the feed with similar topics. Excessive posts on a single topic may be moderated to maintain diversity.

6. Verify in Comments Always check the comments for additional insights or corrections. Moderators rely on community expertise for accuracy.

Sarcasm aside, the science shows that Keto simply isn't good for fat weight loss and that most weight lost isn't fat, especially at the beginning.

Yes, you still do lose some fat, but not as much as an actual healthy diet would with some form of calorie restriction.

In the link I posted, there's a study showing that Keto actually slows down fat loss because it messes with the body so much.

No reason to go on an extreme diet when there are safe, healthy, and far more effective strategies to consider.

Science is about reproducible experiments. I have counter data to your video, with paper references!

I looked at of the cited sources that showed "strong evidence". One had a conflict of interest with the author and the other stated "Our findings suggest that the beneficial changes of LC diets must be weighed against the possible detrimental effects of increased LDL-cholesterol." 😂

There are safer diets out there for weight loss AND overall health!
