The one thing that leaves me iffy on this kind of diet is the fact that your energy is mainly coming from ketone bodies which are formed in the liver using acetyl-coa (from beta-oxidation of fatty acids). my biochem class/prof had mentioned that high levels of ketone bodies = ketoacidosis in extreme cases and just straight up not so good effects in the long run. I'm going to do more research and find more studies before I make an opinion about this though.
