Learn how to do the Ketogenic diet right from an Ayurvedic perspective
The ketogenic diet is a high-fat, low-carb diet that has been trending of late. It promises to help folks lose weight, balance stubborn blood sugars, rip your abs, and help reset the body’s ability to use fats as a primary fuel supply. But is it safe?
With more than 1/3 of Americans being pre-diabetic and obese, shifting the body to burn fat instead of sugar and carbs for energy is an urgent need, but is the ketogenic diet the best way to do so?

My question resonates with sareesha patchas. I’m vata, love my fats but need to balance carbs. I have difficulty meeting all nutritional needs and I’m probably confused, tossing up between eating one to two meals per day requiring loads of raw foods and choosing cooked for convenience because my husband can’t process raw after his ileostomy. We follow, choose Ayurvedic and are lacto vegetarian. Is keto for me?

Hi Annelies,
Medical advice is complex and is best handled in a consultation setting, such as over the phone or via skype. Please consider scheduling a consultation with Dr. John directly.

Believing in fairy tales like millions or hundred of thousands years ago, totally discredits you! the logical conclusion is that if his basic belief is crap then the rest of what he says is also crap!

Does a ketogenic diet help one who has aggravated Vata. Now a days it is being proposed to eat all fats both saturated and in saturated to balance what would you say about it, how can we do that from an Ayurvedic perspective.
Who shouldn’t do a ketogenic diet and is there a specific season in the year that this diet is better to be done than other seasons.

Would taking in too much gelatin be a protein that could bring dementia-like problems to the brain?
Also, on the ketogenic diet, is raw goat milk still OK, i.e., in a different category from dairy in general?
How about cassava flour? How about almond flour?
THANKS
