I've been on keto since it was called Atkins.

Note: I'm just one case, so it's not a scientific study.

A few years ago, I was having some heartbeat irregularity. My doc sent me to a heart specialist who did every test from the blood going to my heart, to the blood going to my toes, to the blood going to my lungs, to treadmill tests.

The results? My entire circulation system was that of an extremely healthy man, 20 years my junior. The doc and the people testing were amazed at how good everything was.

So why the irregularity? Temporary stress.

I was having trouble with my part-time online business. A big company bought the shopping cart company I used, and someone figured out how to "buy" my products for free. The big company didn't import all the safety requirements.

It took the technicians 4 days to figure out what the problem was. The cure was for me to rewrite the cgi code for over 550 products from the old shopping cart way, to the new shopping cart method. That took about a half hour per product.

With the stress I was having Premature Ventricular Contractions, and after the stress was over, it never happened again.

So as far as I'm concerned, eating fewer than 20 carbs per day results in me having a circulatory system so good it actually amazed the heard doctor.

Note: Whenever you read an article, whether it agrees with what you are like, or disagrees with what you like, it could contain a hidden agenda.

The article that says sugar substitutes are bad for you, might be covertly financed by big sugar.

The article that says grapefruit is good for you might be financed by the Florida Citrus growers.

The articles could be true, or could be false. Take them all with the proverbial grain of salt, and do your own research.

I tend to put more weight on peer-reviewed articles published in respected journals. You can find them at https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/ but they aren't that easy to find, and sometimes not that easy to understand. It's worth the work though.
