Even the most educated scientists, biochemists and nutritionists know about a pinch about what the hell is going on with chemicals, food, and our bodies, and much more research is required for almost everything in the field.

Now tell me, how much of this research was based on a human being who has a different body chemistry - ketosis? Things work differently in ketosis land - like triglyceride levels going down despite the consumption of fat since there is no carbohydrate interference, for example - so why nutritionists and the like are automatically assuming that those same laws that apply to carbland apply to ketosisland is ridiculous!

Taking that into consideration, doesn't it make sense that everything they previously learned of beta-hydroxybutyrate, acetoacetate, and
glycotoxin methylglyoxa were studied and learned from in the body chemistry exclusively of someone who eats a 'normal', 'healthy' carb-filled diet? They understand that these chemicals are bad for us, but they know that from research in a completely different body chemistry than ours.

We're in ketosis. All they've determined through ketosis is that those chemicles escalate slightly. Big whoop. Prove that it does anything like it does in a 'normal' person vs a person in ketosis. Who knows if these chemicals behave in the same way in ketosis land or not? That's a whole lot of 'more research is needed' up our butts.

But wait, they're not that smart, or self-interest groups like Kellog's and Nestly were donating funds for that research, too.

Sorry, egghead carb-pushing scientists... just like every other nutrition study released... "more research is needed."
