Fats help absorb the fat-soluable vitamins. TO me this means I can eat fewer berries to get the nutritional impact.



When I'm on a very ketogenic diet, like 3:1 to 4:1, I can have pretty much anything, it seems, without triggering a binge--an amount of berries and heavy cream that would usually just frustrate me can actually be satisfying, it takes less of a hit to be rewarding. Everything has to be perfect, though, a night of short sleep and I can't be trusted around stuff like that again until I'm well rested. I don't think it's lack of discipline when I'm tired, I just seem to be hungrier. But while I've been zero carb that extra hunger when tired seems to be gone. So I'm a hybrid, I can "cheat" a little bit if I've been crazy strict, if things have been looser, I can't.

That might all look like a hot mess, but it works for me.
